For those of you that are interested in the crop production component of Shaw Farm, we have begun cutting and chopping our first crop of grass based feed for our cows.

We will cut and chop over 100 acres before June 1st and store the crop in our bunker silos for year round feed.

 After the first crop is harvested, we try to cut each field every 32 days throughout the summer..

We finished planting the corn for the dairy herd tuesday of this week.

Every year we grow 65-80 acres of corn in Litchfield NH on land belonging to our friends at Wilson Farm. Corn is a part of the daily diet of the non-organic herd.

 Our certified organic herd is grass fed and you can see them grazing on pasture as you drive by the farm.

The day all of you gardeners have been waiting for.

Saturday, form 8am-2pm bring your buckets, you barrell or your pick up truck.

Make sure you bring your own shovel or fork..Prices as advertised in the store.

This year we will have fruit punch, lemonade and lemon ice tea.

All great products and have a high percentage of juice. They will be available here in the store and at your door if you are a route customer..
