Culinary Life Farm

Sometimes you work so hard on something that when it is finally finished it just doesn’t feel real. Our physical store has a few more months before it is finished but this week we have first eggs and plants available to purchase. Next week we will have pasture raised heritage pork available to purchase by the pound. I will not have set store hours until the store opens later this summer, instead I am scheduling people for on farm pickup. You can call me at (830) 433-7354 or email me at candie.yoder@gmail.com to setup a time. I am only be accepting credit cards at this time, so no cash or checks. I am also open to barter so don’t be afraid to offer me something in trade! We have a collection of Easter Eggers and Olive Eggers so our eggs are beautiful shades of blue through green with a few pink and browns thrown in for good measure. We feed Non-GMO with lots of fresh greens from the garden. Our eggs are fertile so if you are looking to expand your flock you can incubate them. We are selling our eggs for $5/dozen with a 50 cent discount if you bring your own egg cartons. We have a wide selection of heirloom tomato plants that were seeded and grown here on the farm with our own blend of starting mix. These plants are in 2.5″ containers and have been hardened off so they are ready to plant in your garden. This is a list of my current starts available and where the seed was purchased. All plants $4/each and are first come first serve. Days is average days to maturity from date of seeding. No chemical fertilizers or herbicides are used here on the farm.

These pigs are my pride and joy. The look on peoples faces when they taste this pork for the first time never gets old. The flavor is so different from the pork you purchase in the grocery store that people often mistake it for beef. There is no funk, no barn yard flavors just pure u
