Sprig and Ember Homestead

Rude….
Woodstock doesn’t like to be ignored 🤣

REMINDER: There is NOT a farmstand today.

The next farmstand will be Sunday, October 25th.

With the holidays coming up, there will be very few farmsteads through the end of the year with the possibility of them being baked goods only (ie no sourdough).

Sourdough freezes well so I would suggest loading up next month incase we don’t have another farmstand for a while!

Sometimes chicken life is rough 🤣
Mr. Sprig and Ember HATES is when Woodstock jumps up on the table! 😂🤣
I keep telling him “Babe! She’s just a lil’ chicken! She doesn’t know any better!” 🐓

Tomorrow is farmstand day!

Reminder: Tomorrow will be the last farmstand until Sunday, October 25th.

Why, do you ask?

Thanks for asking. Let me tell you.

Mr. Sprig and Ember wrote a children’s book! Yes. He wrote a children’s book and I illustrated it.

October will be filled with conferences and trips that we have planed based around writing children’s PB and MG books. There’s a lot going on, I know.

Soon, two of your neighbors will be officially published authors and illustrators!

If you feel so inclined, you can follow us Sterling C Drake and Stacie Lee Dunlop

Be ready for the farmstand at NOON tomorrow! I know a lot of people will be ready to load up to get home for the Packer’s game!

We’re having another farmstand this weekend! We’ll likely have some additional baked goodies depending on timing but I’m keeping the official menu light in case I run out of time to make all the things.

Where: 1408 W County Line Rd, Mequon
When: Sunday, September 20th
How: Self-Serve, Cash, Venmo

NOTE: This is the last farmstand we will have until Sunday, October 25th. I know – we’re going about a whole MONTH with out a farmstand. But my work schedule is starting to pick up on the weekends plus we have a few work trips planned so if you need your farmstand fix – come early and load up!

We're rolling the stand out again today Monday, September 7th. No sourdough (it all sold out by 4:30pm yesterday!) but there are still cookies, banana bread, muffins and some fun cake pop flavors! (The Chocolate Banana is my favorite!)

Thank you to everyone who stopped by yesterday! We might have gone a little over board with the pepperoni pizza loaf so I'll reel that back next time.

The next farmstand will be Sunday, September 20th.

And give our website www.sprigandember.com a browse when you get a chance!

I’ve been going non-stop for the past 2 days to prepare as many goodies for you as possible this week!

We have a LOT of the very popular pepperoni pizza loaves this week. A variety of cookies. Four flavors of cake pops and the usual banana bread and blueberry crumble muffins!

We’ve had an outpour of encouraging words and kind messages after our theft announcement. It’s helpful to know that so many of you would stand behind us of if we blasted stealers online. It wasn’t a debilitating amount of money, but we work hard to bake goodies, raise chickens and grow the garden. It’s not cool whether it’s $1 or $100.

Moving on from the disappointment of the weekend - here is next weekends’s menu!

🍕 The Pepperoni Pizza sourdough is a massive hit so we’re bringing it back again!
🌶️ We’re giving Sundried Tomato a break and bringing back the spicy Jalapeno Cheddar
🍞 Like always we’ll have the Original available
🍪 We sampled some new cookies this weekend and will have more of those yummy flavors available again - original chocolate chip, chocolate peanut butter chip and maybe we’ll test out another new one? Oatmeal Raisin? Plain Peanut Butter?
🍭 And of course, cake pops! Really looking to step up the offerings on our cake pops - butter pecan, red velvet, vanilla sprinkle, chocolate sprinkle, cosmic brownie, coconut, Oreo and banana are just some of the plans we have over the next few weeks!

What sort of items would you like to see on the stand this fall?
~ jams and jellies?
~ pumpkin sourdough and muffins?
~ fire c***r?
Let us know in the comments!

As always, thank you for your support and we’ll see you in a week!
