COVID-19 and Our Farm

, ,

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an immediate effect on our farm. Although Colorado has opened up starting this week, we’ve made the decision to close the farm to tours and visits this year. I realize that this is a difficult time and that visiting our farm is a special treat for many, but we cannot afford to get sick. We’re limiting our exposure to people as much as possible. I will be continuing to post on Twitter with a few pictures.

For our fiber artists, our online store is still in operation. Shipping is much slower than normal, as I try to only go down to town once every two weeks or so. Rest assured that you will eventually get your fiber, and please bear with me as we navigate this strange new world. We will probably not have any raw fleeces available this year, as shipping has gotten expensive due to their bulk.

Meat sales are limited to local pickup for now. The procedure will be to contact me via email or phone to place an order, either by dollar amount or for a set number of cuts and packages. I will contact you with the final price and arrange a one-hour window within which you can pick up the meat. We accept cash and local checks, but I cannot take credit cards at this time. Your order will be on our porch in a cooler, and it must be picked up within your time slot. We are investigating some options for limited in-town delivery of meat orders, but nothing is in place yet.

Your understanding is much appreciated during this unprecedented disaster. Take care, and be safe, everyone!
