Looking for a healthy and delicious gift that will keep on giving all season long? Our 2012 CSA is now open! The CSA is a weekly vegetable box. We’re extending the season this year to 25 weeks. If you are looking to give the CSA as a gift, we’ll give you a little gift card to present to your lucky gift recipient. Call Jenn to sign up today (502.241.9674.)

Foxhollow Folk School

We got some really interesting and fun classes coming up this winter. So, if you are looking to give an experience rather than a material gift this winter, a Folk School class is the perfect gift! The felting and birdhouse making classes are open to kids, accompanied by an adult. We can give you a gift card with your registration. Call Jenn to register (502.241.9674.)

Farm Store Gift Cards

If you’re not sure what to get for the people on your list, we’ve got Foxhollow Farm Store gift cards in any amount which are good for any of the products we have in the store. Stop by the Farm Store to purchase your gift cards. We’re open this week Tuesday-Friday 9:30-5:30.

We hope to see you all out at the Farm Store in December. The Farm Store is open Tuesday-Saturday 9:30-5:30 until December 23rd. We will be closed December 23 – January 13. Our winter hours start January 14th and we will be open Saturdays only 9:30-5:30 until May.

We’re so excited our friend Samantha Birmingham from Yonder Cottage Flowers is teaching a wreath making class next Tuesday, Dec 6th at 7pm. 

Not only is she ridiculously talented with flowers, but she’s also a hilarious girl that makes any time with her a party in the making.  Fa la la la la.  

Sam is going to gather up all sorts of fun materials from the farm and demonstrate how to use them in an evening workshop.  You don’t need any experience to come, just willing hands and an open mind. The best part is keeping the wreath you make, hanging it at your house and bragging to your in-laws that you made it with your own fair hands.

We are just 2 days away from our 4th Annual Fall Festival. We are busy bees getting ready for lots of Fall Festival fun.

We are out and about the Farm building the Haycastle, freshening up the landscaping, baking cakes and pies, gathering pumpkins to decorate our stage, setting up our Pick your own Pumpkin Patch, making signs, and mowing a big field for parking!

It is supposed to be 80 and sunny…Perfect weather for a fall day out at the farm. Come on out this Saturday and win a cake in our cake walk, pet a goat, pick a pumpkin, get your face painted, and enjoy Farm Fresh Food.

Maiden Radio will be playing some great music along with Trapper’s Keepers, Jonathan Glen Wood & Andrew Ifrate, and The Spinning Leaves. Proceeds from the festival benefit Maryhurst too! Thank You to our Sponsors PNC Bank, Greenebaum, Doll, and McDonald, Sterling G. Thompson Insurance Company, and Two Guys With Tools.
