Forgot to get a pic of the turkey yesterday, but here’s our Maple-sugar cured ham roast we contributed to Thanksgiving! Shout-out to Shannon’s Baked Brie photo-bombing the ham. Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving!
Last @lawrencefarmersmarket of the year! Thank you all for such a wonderful market season! We have a nice selection of turkeys, get them while they last!
Turkey Update: we brought them home today! We will be bringing as many as we can to the Saturday @lawrencefarmersmarket this week, so if you want a pasture-raised, Organic-Fed Turkey please stop on by. We will have mostly 13-17# birds ($5.49/lb)

These guys and gals ate grass and bugs and spent most nights perched atop their shelters rather than inside of them. Thank you, turkeys.
