The Pasturage of Montague
Happy November! The freezing temperatures have arrived and with it the annual draining of our pasture water lines. This makes for a lot more work as most of our animals are still on pasture so we are hauling water for a few weeks. I’m looking forward to having our animals in their winter quarters!
Our online pre-order form has a complete list of our products: https://form.jotform.com/231266729632056
We can arrange delivery to Sweetwater and will also be at Muskegon Farmers Market as per usual.
Turkey Ordering Info: Go to our online pre-order form and look under the turkey tab: https://form.jotform.com/231266729632056
There is a place to list your name and contact information. We ask for a $55 deposit. You can mail a check to us, or I can send you a payment link online. We will deliver the turkeys the Saturday before Thanksgiving.
Our online pre-order form lists all our other goodies, too, including lamb, pork, chicken and turkey cuts. If you don’t have a big crowd, consider ordering a turkey breast or (when they come in) a turkey thigh. https://form.jotform.com/231266729632056
