Description
The Goats have been productive this year. Most of the kids have been sold already. If you are interested in purchasing a goat contact us. Goats are sold at $3.50 per pound live weight (meat price), $30 extra for disbudded kids, and $20 for registration application papers. Kids are sold at weaning at the age of 3 or 4 months. Most of the kids will weigh between 40 and 60 pounds at that time. This year we have 15 lambs for sale. Most are ewes. If you are interested in purchasing a lamb contact us. Lambs are sold at $2.50 per pound live weight (meat price), all are very friendly. They are usually sold at weaning at the age of 3 or 4 months. Most will weigh about 60 pounds at that time. Tell us what to plant this spring. There is still some time left to get a few things in the garden. If you contact us we may be able to accommodate your specialty produce desires. We are not currently selling CSA shares as we recently moved and are hoping for the best this year. We often have frozen lamb and goat butchered locally by a USDA facility. Order early if you want to purchase a half or a whole. You can save on processing costs if you make arrangements to pick up your meat at a local custom slaughter house. We can deliver to a Halal slaughter facility in Binghamton for an added mileage fee. We hope to offer Halal slaughter on sight very soon (today is June 3, 2020) Buy a big bag of fresh basil leaves at $20 a pound, pick it yourself and it's half price. Green beans were plentiful last year but we needed a hand processing them. Contact us if you would like us to consider you for a work share on a short term basis. Perhaps you only want to help us make pesto and bring some home. I'm sure we can work something out. When we reinstate our CSA shares we will include will be asking $1,000 for a share. This includes a 1/2 of a goat kid, 1/2 lamb (both custom processed), local eggs, and veggies and herbs while they are in season. A farm cannot be sustainable without customers. If you are interested in getting to know your local farmer please do reach out to us. We want to feed you and your family good, sustainably raised, food. The Blue Spoon Farm is a small family farm in central New York. We are working to build a diverse and sustainable farm using permaculture principles and holistic management practices. Established in 2009, in Groton NY, the Blue Spoon Farm is young. Each year we try out new ideas and document what works and what does not. At the Blue Spoon Farm we do not use chemical pesticides or fungicides on our vegetables or in our animal feeds. We buy our feeds locally from local farmers. All of our animals are treated humanely and are all allowed access to pasture when it is available and green. We practice rotational grazing with our goats in an effort to provide the animals with the cleanest pasture. We strive for all of our hay to be produced on the farm, organically. Delivery is available to the Ithaca Commons area, Cornell University, the Ithaca Mall and Downtown Cortland - in small quantities - for no extra cost - by appointment only. I can ship eggs and meat.
