Chicama Run Family Farm

To post our newsletter on our blog. Apparently a few people are fans on facebook (very cool BTW).... and they look there and not on the email. I heard you - and so now I will do this :)

I just sent this out this morning:

"Hi everyone!

Chimney sweeps are here - which means colder weather is right around the corner! So it's time to get some of your favorite meats at Chicama Run this Saturday from 1-5. We have been having HUGE success and thank everyone for coming out to the farm to visit. This week, we will be redoing some of our more popular sales and adding a HUGE one on!! Please remember - these sales are available ONLY AT THE FARM! You will NOT get these prices at the farmer's market. All beef, pork and lamb NOT listed is still being offered at 10% retail prices!
Delmonico/Rib-Eye Steaks for $15.50/pound (usually $19.50/pound!) - This is our best selling steak and as a thank you we are discounting it this week!!
Beef Stew Meat for $5.00/pound (usually $6.50/pound)
Beef Kielbasa (has MSG) - $4.00/package (each pack has 4 grillers)
All Loose Sausage - $4.00/pound (usually $5.50/pound) - Breakfast, Sweet Italian or Hot Italian - STOCK UP!!
Pork Sausage Grillers - $5.00/pound (usually $6.50/pound) - Sweet or Hot Italian
ALL BEEF & PORK ROASTS - 20% OFF!!! Fire up the crock pot this week!!!
Now - on to other hot news!! Our chickens have been selling out FAST - be sure to get here early to get the best selection.

Then - we are still taking reservations for steers - HOWEVER - we are SOLD OUT for OCTOBER!! We have about 1-2 steers left in November so you will NOT want to miss out as those will be the last batch we will have for 2009.

This week we will be at Paeonian Springs Grocery and Gourmet on Thursday from 4-7!! I will be bringing meats there even if we don't have orders.

Eggs are golden right now as we are not getting as many as we have in the past. We are only getting about 10 dozen per day. We are HOPING that this increases soon, but as the weather changes we never know what is going to happen. "


So there you go. These are the hot specials for the week....

As far as regular farm stuff that's going on - it's constantly busy right now! It's amazing that it's already fall and we are starting to prepare for the Fall Farm Tour which is in just a couple of weeks!! (October 17-18th).

Gotta run and do the chores for the morning!
