Thicketty Mountain Farms

Instead of weeding, we are cutting grass this year. This is a HUGE experiment. We are trying to keep the grass growing between the rows of vegetables. It does mean a bit more front end work like mulching, but we spent way too much time last year bent over picking those annoying weeds. I’ll keep you posted on how this works out.

Come see us at Hub City!

We will be at the Hub City Farmers’ Market tomorrow morning from 8-12.

Come out and support Thicketty Mountain Farms and other local farmers.

Buying local, sustainable food is good for your family and our economy.

We are very happy to now offer pasture-raised whole chickens.  We raise them, process them, and sell them right off the farm.

Please, come out to see the chickens, other animals, and maybe take home a chicken for dinner!

You can also purchase them at the Hub-City Farmers’ Market, or at the Whole Food Farmers’ Market.

Check out what Sustainable Table has to say about pasture-raised animals.

This is our product list for 2012.  This may help you plan ahead.  I will try to keep it updated, so you know when different items will be ready for sale.  If you have any questions please let me know!

Now, this is a big check off of our to-do list.  Look at that big smile on Brent’s face!

We had a surprise last Friday when we arrived at the barn.  Pearl, one of our Nigerian Dwarf does, had twins.  One of them looks just like her and the other favors his daddy, Rocky.  At this point, they are running around playing.  If you have not seen a baby goat, you should!  They are ridiculously cute!
