We hope everyone had a pleasant weekend.
Today has been spent mostly trying to find local meat. Any meat! We learned this morning that the scarcity of meat wasn’t necessarily low stock at the local farms, but also had something to do with the processing plants being overwhelmed at this point. The pandemic has slowed the processing down as well, with the safety procedures now in place and employees going out sick. We will keep searching. Actually if you have a craving for meat that just can’t be satisfied, you may want to look at one of our new vendors, My Canine Cucina in Abingdon. Owner Barbara locally sources her ingredients and makes all the dishes and treats herself. All her pet treats are made from Human grade products. I ate a dog cookie once by accident and it was delicious, you know, until I found out I just at a dog treat. The good news is we will run some trials this week on a new ordering system that will allow you to order right through our website. It should be a lot easier for you and, hopefully, save Vicky hours of work. The plan is to have it up and running for next week’s orders. Speaking of ordering, we will install a slight change in your ordering this week. Let’s run down the process:
1..Check the menu on your email or our website and decide what you would like. 2..Email us your order by starting with the farm’s name and the items you would like from that farm below it, then move on to the next farm. Make sure your address and phone number are on your order. 3..Also include on your order whether you would prefer to pick up your order at the farm or have it delivered. Pick up days and times at the farm are Saturday 3-8 and Sunday noon-6. Deliveries will be Saturday if you are in the following Zip Codes 21047, 21014, 21050, 21084, 21111, 21013, 21082, 21051, 21087, 21085,21009 and 21014. All other Zips will be delivered on Sunday. 4..If this is your first time placing an order, after you have sent your order please call Vicky at 443-904-5738 with your credit card information. She will be manning the phone each day 10-6.
5..You can order now through Wednesday 4/15 at 10pm. Operators, I mean, operator is standing by.
Have a safe week. If you’re extremely bored, check out our daily farm videos on the Rousedale Farm facebook page.
