At the Farmstand: December 7-13

Well, hello December.  The daylength gives it away even if the temps and lack of snow do not.  The farmstand is getting more and more stocked for  cozy winter meals and the holidays every week.  In time for the Sunday market we should be restocked with Maple Breakfast Sausage, Christmas Sausage and even Bloody Mary mix!We continue to have a mix of fresh greens from our hoophouses, but the volumes aren't like the early fall. With today's maximum possible sunlight at 9 hours even, the plants are growing very slowly.  But we will keep managing them based on temps & sun to have some mix of fresh greens each week to brighten these short, darker days.Holiday gift baskets, our own Popcorn! and some beeswax candles and homemade soap from Brookfield Bees are also now in the farmstand. This week at our Farmstand you can find:
