Yikes! 10 days till Christmas Eve

The season just flies by. I hope all of you are enjoying the coming of Christmas and not too stressed with all the preparations.
Our tree sales have been going well, we still have some beauties - Fraser Fir, Balsam and Scotch Pine.

There is still time to order your turkey. I am very limited on small ones but have some in the 18lb plus range. This can all change because they are still all living and weights are only certain once they are dressed and ready for dinner. Give me a range of 4 lbs in order to have one that will fit your needs.

We're still baking. The Christmas cookie trays are very enticing and yummy. They make great hostess gifts, take them to an office party, or just enjoy at home for dessert. Place your pie orders for the 24th so you won't be dissappointed. We close at 4 pm Christmas eve and reopen the first weekend in May. I try not to overbake because I get to eat whats left.

Our turkey pies are ready and we'll have our chicken pies done by this Friday. They're delicious and make for an easy meal.

This may be the last blog before Christmas. I'm already booking our workshops and conferences we want to attend this winter. I'll try and keep you posted on what will be new for next season.

We wish you all a very merry Christmas with all the joy the season can bring. Stay safe this winter and we'll see you in the spring.

MMMM The tastes and smells of Christmas


Shortbread cookies, mince tarts and pies, the smell of a Christmas tree; oh the traditions of Christmas.
It's one of our favorite times of the year.

Our farm and market is now open daily until Christmas eve day.
We still have apples, carrots, squash and other Ontario produce available, we're baking our pies, and there is a beautiful selection of fresh cut Fraser fir, Balsam and Scotch Pine Christmas trees to choose from - anywhere from 3 ft to approx. 12 ft.

Fresh, Free Range, Grain Fed Turkeys
are available by special order. They'll be ready for pickup December 23rd and 24th. Get your order in early so you won't be disappointed.

Kawartha Dairy eggnog is in. We think it's the best you'll ever taste. Place your orders for eggnog and pies for the 24th as I try to sell out. This way you won't be disappointed.
