Happy New Year!

Hello Ocean Song Farm Friends:

Happy New Year 2010! Welcome to the new decade, we hope that you all had a wonderful holiday season.

Farm News:
We are getting 5 more pigs on Monday from Feeding Hills, Massachusetts. These pigs will be for three individual families. We have one more available. We suggest that if you are interested you contact me immediately- this opportunity will vanish quickly. The total cost is about 650.00 and yields an enormous amount of delicious pork, ham, bacon and sausage.

We also are in the process of getting our next round of Label Rouge Chickens that will be ready for Early Spring.

We are turning our sights toward breeding our dairy goats. I just contacted a farmer on the Vineyard who will hopefully be lending us his Saanen buck Ivan. We hope to take some goats out of production and put the younger ones into production. These goats hopefully will be sent to another sanctuary to be used for some grazing and the others will be sold as future dairy goats and also for chevon (goat meat) for local families.

We are also hoping to get into gardening and growing over at Long Pasture. Jason will sit down with Ian Ives and work out the details. We are hoping for areas to grow veggies and flowers for sale at the local farmer's markets. We also want to have areas designated for volunteer participation- in trade for veggies.

We have 1/2 a lamb for sale. If you are interested please contact us immediately as the lambs will be going to the butcher this week. I can help with the cutting orders. These lambs will all be USDA inspected, cryovecced, and arrive home frozen. These will be a delicious product!

We will let you all know when the turkey orders need to be placed for Thanksgiving and Christmas 2010. The turkeys were so delicious and giant. I think there is nothing yummier than a 22 lb. turkey!!!!!!

We did a story for the Cape Cod Times magazine "Primetime" on our Slow Food Cheese making classes. We thank you for all your inquiries, we don't have any winter or early spring dates as of yet. Stay Tuned---- I hope you will join Slow Food Cape Cod in the meantime. They have the greatest Winter events that feature local chefs, local foods and wonderful local restaurants. We love them and all the members truly a great bunch.

If you want to help with any of our ongoing projects for winter and early spring we would love for you to join us. We thank you for all your support.

For the time being- buy as fresh and as local as you can for veggies as we are in the cold months, connect with the fish mongers and shellfisher people, and the land farmers with their fresh eggs, chickens turkeys pork and the like.

Stay warm and cook at home!

Here's a big warm hug.

Jen and Jason, Erin and all the creatures we care for.


The work day never ends for Jason!!!!!! He is the back bone of this farm.
Thank you for ever my dear husband.
