Heather Ridge Farm for the Holidays!
Holiday goodies at Heather Ridge Farm! If you are in Upstate New York, buy local and good for the earth for the holidays. Heather Ridge Farm has lots of local items for sale that can help fill up the stockings or finish off the holiday lists with a little something extra, including some of my blank greeting cards that have photos of views from Heather Ridge Farm. They are open on Saturdays from 11am-2pm and will have free hot cider and beautiful snowy views to rev up the holiday spirit. Stay and have some chili for lunch to warm you up! Check out Carol's message about what gift items are available (scroll down to see).
Here's a message from Carol Clement at Heather Ridge Farm:
Hi,
This weekend we will have our award wining chili freshly made, and lots of gift items at our farm store. Come by and browse, have a cup of complimentary coffee or hot mulled cider. Stay for a warming lunch if you want! Open every Saturday in December 11am-2pm.
Fresh Lamb and Mutton Dec. 19
The following weekend, Sat., Dec. 19, we will have fresh lamb and "yearling mutton." (The nasty storm we just had changed our processing schedule, and moved the lamb processing back a week). Contact me with your special orders!
A chilly chili day
We will be serving our award winning chili and corn muffins for lunch ... perfect for a chilly day! And those great brownies made by the Aloisi's for dessert!
