Open House 2010

We are pleased to announce our open house and special dinner,  for 2010. Dirty Dinner, In the Field, on Saturday, May 15th and Open House On Sunday, May 16th, from 11 to 6pm. In past years, we have seen anywhere from 50 to 150 guests on open house day.  In 2009, we held the event in the fall and we are pleased to bring it back to a spring date.   In addition to our open house, we are hosting a dinner on the farm, in the field, on Saturday, May 15th. Rain OR Shine…Unless Thunderstorms are severe! Rain dates are the following weekend. Details for each event follow:

First, the open house (Sunday May 16):

  • This is a free event for customers, family, friends and sometimes strangers!  We will be planting seedlings, collecting eggs, visiting with sheep, eating, drinking and HUNTING MORREL MUSHROOMS!
  • We appreciate RSVPs greatly, so we know how many people to expect. You can email us or call.
  • This year we are doing a potluck. Food will be served from 12 Noon to 3pm. Grass Is Greener Gardens will provide drinks and a meaty-main course. We welcome side dishes and desserts.  Even plain old potato chips.  (Plan on something that would serve about 12 people, because we will have a lot of dishes to pass!)
  • If you wish to camp on our farm, you may. We have many remote spots available. We don’t have shower service, so consider it remote camping.

Second, the dinner (Saturday May 15):

  • On Saturday evening, May 15th, we will host a Dirty Dinner in the Field.  Each month we host a community, farm-to-table dinner at Bushel & Peck’s. On May 15th, Bushel & Peck’s dinner moves right into the field. This is a real, four course meal right at the source. A donation of $35 is required for this event.  Dinner starts at 6 with appetizers and goes til ?
  • This event is a casual, yet serious culinary experience!
  • If you wish to stay in an area hotel that evening, let us know and we can help you find one. Or you can camp.
  • Reservations for dinner are required.
  • Directions to the farm can be found on this page.
