Good morning,

I'm loving the fall weather on the farm these days!

And now to prepare for winter...

Many of you stocked up with our Chicken Savings Event last week and it sounds like everyone is loving the bundles.

For those who did not join the event, you can sign up here to get notified next year when the savings event goes live.

And for everyone, now is your chance to stock up before the October 14 price freeze ends.

If you didn't read the original email about this, we highly recommend you do now: What's happening to our food supply?

Whatever you do, please don't panic.

There will be no "price hikes" after 10/14! :)

Yes, some prices are changing, but not on any staple items like milk, eggs, ground beef or whole chicken.

We are simply making a few price corrections to keep up with inflation and rising costs in many areas.

In the spirit of full transparency, these corrections need to happen to keep our farm sustainable. We knew you'd expect and appreciate a heads-up.

Here are the main items that will be affected:

This list is the main items changing now. There will probably need to be a few other minor price corrections eventually.

Our family and team truly appreciates your understanding as we work through these times together!

All the best of food and blessings,

Wesley Shank

Real farmers. Real Caring. Real Food.

P.S. Our frozen meats will easily last a year or more in your freezer. We recommend stocking up now. If a package becomes unsealed, use it first to avoid freezer burn.

Ground Breaking News at Family Cow farm!

After 3 long years of planning, today we literally have ground breaking news to share with you all! :) The temporary 'reefer trailers' we've been using as our Family Cow facilities since 2008 will finally be replaced by an actual building! We are thankful for how well our 'reefers' served us for the last 17 years, but it's past time for this improvement!

Behind the Scenes Video of Order Packing

Good morning friends, Today I have a quick video to show you Behind the Scenes Order Packing at The Family Cow farm! The morning work starts at 5:00 so it's often still dark this time of year... but that doesn't keep everyone from arriving promptly to get your food on the way. Watch now to see how we prepare food each week to go from our family farm to the 54 Pickup Locations across PA so you can get real, clean foods delivered to your community. It's our pleasure to do it for you! :) This footage was shot earlier this year, but I thought now would be a good time to show you what a busy packing morning looks like during the holiday season! We've been scrambling (literally) to get all the orders out the door some mornings... Hopefully before long we can do an expansion project and give us more workspace here at the farm so the packing area isn't so crowded! :) All the best of food and blessings. Your farmer, Wesley

Family Picture Night 2024

It's been two years since our last pasture picture, as our family calls them. Since then, our family has grown by five, so I believe it's high time! But first, just a little nostalgia...
