It's official, we have gone cuckoo for chickens!

So much so that we want to share them with you! We are now very eggcited to be part of RENT THE CHICKEN! To learn about seasonal chicken and coop rentals, go to their website www.RentTheChicken.com or visit their FB page. You'll find some egg-cellent information. There is a great sale going on right now if you are looking for a unique holy-day gift!

What to get the person who has everything?

A Gift Card from Templeton Family Organics! Just in time for the Holiday season. These can be used on any of our products - veggies, honey, pork, maple syrup, chicken or how about a laying hen or two? Or maybe a whole freezer full of meat? Who can't use food?  Isn't it even more special that you are supporting a local family farm AND its organic. Its healthy, meaningful and environmentally friendly. So get your shopping done early and in peace (no crazy stores to go through!) and come on down, pick up some gift cards, cross off a few people off your shopping list, and while you are here, visit our baby chicks that just came in today!

Big announcement! We are now Certified Animal Welfare Approved (AWA)!

We had decided that just because we say we are organic doesn't mean that our animals see the light of day, which can and does happen in the organic world (shocking I know!). We decided to take this one step further so you, the consumer, can be assured of the wonderful, happy and humane treatment of our pigs. If you have ever been here, you would have seen the happy pigs frolicking around in the pasture and playing in the mud. One of the biggest thing people say - besides how cute they are, is "I can't believe how friendly they are". So for those of you who haven't been here yet and haven't seen for yourself, you can be assured that our pork lived a very happy and natural life here which, by the way, comes out in the flavor!

Now taking orders for Thanksgiving Turkeys! SOLD OUT SORRY!

If you would like us to contact you next year about turkeys, feel free to comment or send us an email so you won't miss out again. We are expanding our turkey operation next year so we will be able to accommodate a lot more requests. Thanks!

We will sell out so please order early as we hate to disappoint (and so many were disappointed last year)! Weights will be between 12-20 pounds this year. $6.50/lb organic, pasture raised. Turkeys will be fresh for Thanksgiving around 11/21 - how awesome is that! Buy the real deal this year for a special family treat!

Grateful for helping hands

We are very grateful to the Ouellette family who have on several occasions come by with their 6 children to offer a helping hand. In this picture the twins and younger kids moved a group of layer chicks from the main barn to the small hen house so that they can learn how to roost and get used to being in a hen house. While they were busy setting up the house, putting down bedding, setting up feeders, and waters, catching chicks and moving them, the big kids were out moving 175 bigger cornish cross chickens out to the field. When they were done, they came in and cleaned out the pens they were in! Talk about many hands making light work. We were done in record time. Thank you Ouellette family!

Here is another picture of a tremendous helping hand. Below is Wally helping me until the wee hours of the night putting labels on our various chicken cuts, fresh out of the processing plant. Together we labeled, weighed and packaged orders for our customers and put them back into our refrigerated van for delivery in the morning. Thank you Wally - you rock!

New Mobile Farm Stand & Partner Farms!

We were very warmly invited by ECCO Shoes in Londonderry to bring our products to them. We are there on Wednesdays from 11:30 - 1:30. Its a work in progress as the season ramps up but we decided to partner with our two favorite farms to provide more variety and exposure to the awesome organic farms right in our own area. We are stocking some beef products from STEVE NORMANTON GRASS-FED BEEF farm in Litchfield, NH. Orders for beef cuts can be made in advance and brought with us on our next delivery. We are also offering awesome dairy products from BENEDIKT DAIRY in Goffstown. We have raw milk (the real cream top deal!), yogurt, butter, fromage (cheese) - all in stock. Behind the scenes our partner farms are more than just products too. We support each other in buying feed in bulk, we share our equipment, transport livestock and products, share advice and so much more. Steve has also been an amazing mentor as we have embarked on new adventures. It is not easy to be a farming family in New Hampshire. So when you purchase local, not only are you reducing air emissions by trucking companies, purchasing healthy, flavorful food and supporting someone's local hard working farm, you are supporting the farming community who hold each other up! That is a grace! Thank you for your support!
