Winter Ends & Spring Takes Over

We are seeing our round bales diminish and the fields beginning to green up.  We are hopeful that is a simultaneous event – that we have enough hay to make it til the fields are ready for the cows!   Watching things green up reminds me of daffodils that will soon be blooming, trees budding, and staying light later!  Watching the sunset here remains one of our favorite activities!

“Sunset” Valley Farms

We will be getting 8 new calves in the next week or two from the farm we partner with in Suffield.  It’s always fun to see the new ones become part of the fold … herd.  The calves are usually around 500 – 600 lbs when we get them and we raise them til they are about 20 – 24 months.  These calves turn into some pretty amazing grass fed beef!

At this time was are taking orders for pork.  In May we will be getting our piglets from Farmer Gene, right down the road, and father-in-law to our daughter Rebecca.  Gene was born and raised in Illinois and has lots of experience raising hogs.  Gene has learned Berkshire hogs are the best and we are excited that he will be supplying us with 25 this year!  Give us a call or send an email if you’d like to sign up for a half or whole pig.  We will raise them all summer and butcher in the fall … September or October.  Call Steve at 860-670-0495 or email Jan at jklmoser@gmail.com.   We will be posting pictures in May when we get the piglets!

Premium Burger

We are partnering with a local farm here in Ellington and are offering 40lb boxes of premium ground beef.  This beef comes individually wrapped in 1 lb packages and tastes amazing!

An important note, this is NOT grass fed.  We are experiencing a high demand for beef right now, and our small family farm is not able to meet the demand.  Hence, we our partnering with a trusted local farm for some premium burger.  We’ve enjoyed this burger with our family and find it delicious. 

It’s grilling season, and we’ve got the beef!  Let us know if you are interested in one of these 40lb boxes.  We expect to have a steady supply for the rest of the summer and into the fall.  Email us at jklmoser@gmail.com or give Steve a call at 860-670-0495 to put your name on a box of beef!  

Summer on the Farm

Summer on the farm is a busy time.  Especially the summer of 2020!  Our grass fed beef are grazing the fields and we are constantly hoping and praying for rain!  So far, our fields have maintained and the beef are eating lush rich grass.  We plan to cut hay this Friday and Saturday.  Our annual goal is 120 round bales to keep these beef fed on our own hay all winter long.  We are about at 70% of our goal!

The pigs are growing like crazy and we are now feeding them fruits and vegetables daily from a local market.  Their favorites are tomatoes and peaches.  But also love to eat peppers, lettuce, cucumbers and other soft fruits and veges.  They arrived at the farm at about 18 – 20 lbs and now are pushing 150 – 175 lbs.  

Burger – 2 boxes available

We have 2 boxes of all burger still available!  We were able to get more burger than we anticipated and now have two additional boxes for sale.  There are 40 packages of 1lb individually shrink wrapped ground beef per box.  With Memorial Day upon us, its a great time to get out the grill and enjoy some juicy burgers.

This burger is from a local farm that we partnered with, to provide some fresh, high quality burger to our customers.  It is not from grass fed only, beef.

Give us a call at 860-670-0495 or email us at jklmoser@gmail.com if you are interested in purchasing some of this burger.

 

Burger – Sold Out

At this time, we are sold out of grass fed beef and burger.  Our next available butchering for grass fed beef is Spring, 2021.  Our ground beef is sold out for the time being.  We are trying to get additional butchering slots in at our local butcher and he too, is busier than ever.  This pandemic has put its mark on all of us!  As soon as we have more ground beef available, we will let you know by an updated post.  

We hope each of you stay safe and healthy!

Burger Available

Hello to all of our beef customers!  We hope and pray you and your loved ones are staying safe and healthy!  Our family is doing well, trying to practice social distancing and remembering all the good things in life!

News on the farm … we just got 6 new calves. They have lots of energy and are fun to watch in the fields.    We let all the cows out of the barn and into the pasture last weekend.  They seemed happy to be in the fields and have a much larger place to call “home”!  It’s always a joy to watch them enjoying the lush grass in the fields.  

The other news is our cat, Muffin, recently gave birth to 5 adorable kittens.  We still have 2 left for good homes, if you or anyone you know would like a cuddly kitten.  Maggie, our farm dog, is doing well, just vying for attention due to the new kittens we are all lavishing attention on.

The grass fed beef that we have is sold out for 2020.  Our next butchering is scheduled for February, 2021 and if you would like to be on that list, just send us an email at jklmoser@gmail.com or call Steve at 860-670-0495.

We have an alternative option for you, if you would be interested in ground beef only.  We have butchered a locally sourced cow, however, it is NOT grass fed only.  It is grain, corn and grass fed.  We have had so many requests from our customers, and our grass fed beef is sold out, so we’ve partnered with a local farm and are selling 40lb boxes of all burger.  If this something you are interested, let me know.
