Waiting out the freeze
It's been cold. Real cold. The kind of cold that has texture and sticks to you when you come inside. Alternatively, the kind of cold that lets you know if dental work is imminent. The kind of cold…well, you know how cold it's been. We have seen some intense weeks …
Ready for 2026
Happy Holidays to everyone! Even though our nuclear family was far and wide, we had a whole flock of friends and extended family here to celebrate the season. Quiet and fun. Fun enough that the cleanse is actually starting BEFORE Jan 1. It's an emergency. We are getting ready for …
Thanksgiving ordering in high gear
Happy Halloween! We were huddled indoors much of yesterday (much needed blustery, rainy day) drinking pumpkin spice coffee and making soup. But our team is back at it with the sun reportedly coming out and the wind drying everything up. The turkeys are coming along…generally terrorizing our neighbors, their guardian …
Stepping into Fall…And Thanksgiving
Too soon? Not for us! It is barreling toward November 27. Our favorite holiday – Thanksgiving – where we get together, enjoy each other, and cook up all the local goodness that we and our farm friends grow. NJ has so much to offer from now through November! So…of course …
Summer Days Winding Down
Oh the back-to-barnyard drama. It's been a full season of rotating fields, haying, grazing, and lazing. But fall brings a change of pace and new questions. Which Pyrenees will partner with which? Where will the turkeys wander to without their hall pass? Who's joined the WDNC club and is just …

Springing forward
Well, the clocks have changed and all of us, including the animals, have a new lease on life. First, the puppies are about 25-30lbs. It will be a while before they are 100lbs – but they're getting there, Here's Daisy with Bob and Reba, seeing how she stacks up. Daisy …
Welcome 2025!
Well, that was a doozy. There were droughts, eclipses, drones, turkey breakouts, escaped dogs, and orphaned puppies. But we roll into 2025 with a renewed sense of purpose to serve our community and provide the highest quality, humanely raised meats around. **Please note, the market at Ottoburger will be reopening …
