M&S Farms: ANNOUCEMENT….we have lowered the prices of our beef so we can fill up our freezers for Spring. Bring your families back to the supper table! Our little family farms was created to provide a healthy alternative to buying protein for your family. We have a small herd of Angus cattle. We feed a high quality grain based feed and we do vaccinate our livestock to protect against infection and disease. We believe that the animals health is just as important as our own health. We do breed our cattle right here on our little farm. All of them are gentle with the minimum amount of stress. This ensures a better quality of product then you’ll ever get from a grocery store.

New to the Market…Backyard Tailz:

I also added a NEW PRODUCT!!! My Detox Bath Bombs have been added to the site, you can buy one to try or a pack of four! They are made with bentonite clay and a special blend of essential oils made to help support and detox your liver. Throw one (or two) in your bath and enjoy a nice soak!

When it’s this cold outside…it’s definitely tea time. Check out our organic house-blended teas (all delicious hot or iced!): Peppermint hibiscus, Bed time, Immune support & Summertime fruits. We also have in-mug tea steepers to go along with these loose teas to get more bang for your buck than the ball-style steepers because they allow the tea leaves to completely open up, meaning you can use less tea per brew!

If you’re looking to pamper yourself or someone else this this Valentine’s Day, consider our wellness products like our herbal bath tea & shower steamers. They are the perfect way to add aromatherapy to your daily routine.

Carole’s Herbs (CS3 Farms): Welcome to the post subarctic blast.

This is our WINTER microgren blend! Every season we create new blends to represent the time of year. OUR WINTER blend has ’YELLOW BEETS, RED PAC CHOI, IGLOO CAULIFLOWER and CURLY WATERCRESS.

What better way to start the New Year than with highly nutritional greens called Mirogreens? They pack 40 to 100% more vital nutrients than the adult verion. We grow organically with NON-GMO seeds and nutrient-dense soil. We look forward to providing the best for you in 2024.

Some more hearty and warm dishes are my green bean casserole. And I am now making chicken rosemary pot pie. The casserole is sure to be a delightful side to any dish. I make my own cream of mushroom soup for this and finish it with Parmigiano cheese. The pot pie is what you would be expecting loaded with peas, carrots, potato with the added flavor of rosemary. Puff pastry is laid on top and acts as the pie crust.

Finally if you haven’t had a Philly cheese steaks in a while. Try one of mine! 100% 1/2 pound of rib eye meat, delicious homemade cheese wiz sauce, sautéed onions, red bell peppers, and mushrooms. Sure to be one of the best sandwiches you have ever had!
