Take me to the Market.

Joyful Noise Acres Farm:  The market is open for orders.


Good morning. It may be hard for many of us to think about food at the moment but the market is open for ordering. We will resume our regular hours this week of 12-4 pick-up.

The turkey stock is simmering as I write which reminds me to remind you of the class on December 6. We will learn about stocks and broths, not only the benefits but how to make them taste wonderful. You do not have to be a farm member to attend. Please e-mail marybeth@pasturedmeats to register.

Many of our farmers and producers may be a little later updating the market with the holiday yesterday. If you don’t see something you want or need, let us know.

We have a fresh shipment of butter in, salted and unsalted so be sure to pick up a pound or two on Wednesday.

Have a great weekend and we will see you on Wednesday.

Blessings,
Mary Beth

Republican Valley Produce:  RVP market is Open!


Oops, with all the Thanksgiving Holiday preparations, I completely forgot about opening the Market on Wednesday evening. I hope you had a good time with family and friends. I appreciate your support throughout the years and I hope to be able to continue serving you.

It is an exciting time for me, at the farm. As of Thanksgiving morning, I made the final wiring connections on the new to me walk in cooler. The used 7 by 9 foot cooler is going to give us so much more room to store produce and give me some flexibility when picking and storing our produce we grow and sell.

I have had the cooler up for several weeks now, but last weekend I cut the hole and installed the new AC unit and Coolbot. A coolbot is an electronic device that tricks the AC unit into running lower than it normally should. With this unit hooked to an Air conditioner, we can cool the cooler to 38 degrees, or even colder. Check it out at www.storeitcold.com I am not finished with the build, I have some additional insulation to add and work on getting the door to seal better, but it is functional. I will be excited to see how it performs next summer.

Remember, orders are due by 10pm on Saturday.

Manhattan folks, you can preorder for the December 6th market this week or next week. It is your choice. Just select “Winter Market” as pick up location.

Happy Thanksgiving!

CSA Farmers Market:  Thomas Creamery Retires Nov 2014


Thomas Creamery

Letter from Thomas Creamery……
Have you “herd” the news? We are retiring. We have decided it was time for us to “head out to pasture”.

As of this week we are closing our farm and creamery. This is our last week bottling milk, making yogurt, and delivering our products to stores. All of our cows, our “Jersey girls”, have headed to a large pastured organic farm in Missouri.

We sincerely thank each of you as well as all of our stores for faithfully supporting our farm over the years. We have been honored with the distinction of producing some of the top yogurt and milk in the nation for quality and nutrition (see Cornucopia Institute). And we have eight fabulous employees who have worked hard for the success of the farm.

We were originally “city kids” and have been on the farm 17 years now building our business. Now it is time for us to slow down and take a rest. Keep an eye on us in the future as we look toward the Traverse City area. We just may be at it again in a few seasons.

We deeply thank you with all our hearts for your support all these years. You are the ones who have made us successful.

If anyone would like to continue with the Thomas Organic Creamery tradition of creating nutrient-dense yogurt and milk, our creamery equipment is for sale. We would love to train the right person who has the desire to continue what we have started. Please feel free to contact us by email at thomasyogurt@4cld.net.

Sincerely, Harley and Linda Thomas
