I know it's been a LONG time since we sent any updates to our email subscribers. There is a myriad of excuses that can be made for that, but they are just that, excuses! Our days consist of have-tos, need-tos and want-tos. The have-tos are always straight forward, especially in winter. Those tasks are mostly feeding, watering and other basic daily farm chores that keep the animals happy, healthy and comfortable. Those need-to items are usually less urgent but address upcoming issues like equipment maintenance, construction projects or sorting animals. The want-tos are where things fall to pieces on a farm. Whether personal, farm or business related these items constantly get pushed to the next day again and again. A long way of getting to the point, but that's where our email updates have unfortunately landed. In the spirit of "it's a New Year", fresh starts, resolutions and all that, we're back! We can do better; we will do better at keeping you all informed. Thank you for sticking with us!!!!!
If you aren't already, make sure to follow Northrop Farms on Facebook. We're trying hard to keep daily updates posted there.
As we look back over 2023, wow what a crazy year!! The growth in the number of customers has been amazing! Keeping up with demand has become a bit of a challenge. We had to stall off customers interested in whole/half pork, lamb, or beef shares until the end of our farmers market season. We are finally caught up, but looking ahead we don't have long until the market season starts up again. During market season most all of our product is needed to fill that demand. If you have interest in doing a whole/half share, please reserve soon!!!
