A Refocus to Northern Farm & Flowers:
important information β please read
βTo improve is to change; to be perfect is to change often.β
–Winston Churchill
This statement speaks to us as we reflect on our farm and business since its inception in May 2022 when we offered annual and perennial plants and opened the you-pick cutting garden later in the summer. Since purchasing this beautiful piece of property in December 2021, our goal was to be a caretaker of this historic farmland, a notion that speaks to the town of Goshen and respects its history.
Over the past several months, we have strived to provide the community with a variety of products, some of which we produced, others from local and not-so-local producers. What we have found is the success of cultivating and farming certain items which will now lead us to streamline our focus at the farm.
What we hear most from our customers is this:
βYour eggs are the best eggs everβ
βThis is the most delicious turkey we have ever offered at our Thanksgiving tableβ
βI canβt imagine eating store-bought chicken once Iβve had your pastured-raised chickenβ
βThis is pork the way it was meant to be and tasteβ
βYour duck was deeeeelish!β
What does this mean?
Being a member of the farming community is a 24/7 job. But from time to time, you have to evaluate and adjust your time spent on the responsibilities, loved ones, and experiences that are most important and valuable to you.
We have made the decision to refocus our efforts on whatβs been most successful and meaningful to our customers and the community. In the coming weeks, we will be restructuring our retail offerings to the items we produce, which include eggs, chicken, chicken pot pies, duck, garlic salts, pork, and turkey, including turkey pot pies. Locally-sourced beef and lamb will also be available. While our open hours at the farm will be reduced, we will offer online purchasing and the convenience of pickup at the farm.
We plan on continuing with our popular you-pick flower garden in 2025 and will also offer spring, summer, and fall annuals. We will not be offering perennials next season.
To prepare for this change, aΒ 25% discountΒ will apply to many items that will be discontinued from our regular offerings. These include jarred goods, pastas, candles, gift items, seeds, garden items, soaps, and more. Our fall annuals and pumpkins will remain available through the seasonΒ while supplies last. Below youβll find an overview of whatβs on sale.
For our loyalty program members, your points will remain available and you can use them throughout our sale. However, we will be discontinuing the loyalty program, so new points will not be earned on purchases beginning Friday, October 11, and existing points must be redeemed by Sunday, October 27. Please see below for a list of important dates.
We know this is a big change and that you may have questions or concerns. Please feel free to reach out to us!
We are excited to take these next, transformative steps. We will continue to share our journey with you and look forward to seeing you when you stop by to select and enjoy our provisions raised through the regenerative farming process employed here at the historic Gifford farm. Regenerative farming results in high-quality meat proteins that are humanely raised. It is a more sustainable farming practice in terms of gas emissions, soil health, and water pollution β all essential elements needed to preserve our beautiful farm property in the heart of Goshen and provide sustenance to generations to come.
Thank you for being a part of our farm family and taking part in this journey with us! We look forward to seeing you at the farm.
