Last Farmstand of the Season — But We're Still Going Strong!

This Saturday is our final Farmstand of the season, and we’d love to see you one more time!

But don’t hang up your shopping baskets just yet… we’re still going strong at Stone Pillar Farm!
👉 Our freezers are packed with meat (and we’ll have new grass-fed beef coming in November)
🥚 Eggs and microgreens are available year-round
🥕 Fresh produce continues through November

So please, keep supporting your local farm! Even after the Farmstand wraps up, your purchases make a huge difference in helping us care for the animals and land through the winter. 💚

We also have exciting news — our daughter Anna’s rabbit business is thriving! She has 10 pasture-raised rabbits processed and ready for purchase, raised right here on the farm. They’re a bit bigger than the last batch (I had to pause processing while a hand injury healed), but still tender and delicious. One customer even told us rabbit has become her new favorite protein! 🐇

Here’s what we’ll have this Saturday at the Farmstand:
🥬 Lettuce, arugula, peppers, slicing & cherry tomatoes
🍆 Limited eggplant
🥕 Radish, beets, tricolor bush beans
🎃 Winter squash — delicata, butternut, spaghetti, and acorn
🍗 Pasture-raised chicken, rabbit, and eggs

Come see us this Saturday, and remember — the farm doesn’t stop when the Farmstand does!
We’re here for you year-round. ❤️

Fresh From the Garden + Happy Cows!
Our pasture is finally green again after the summer drought—and our new South Poll calves are loving it. (They’re growing fast and keeping their moms busy!)

This Saturday we’ll have a big spread of fresh food for you:
🍅 Tomatoes – plenty of slicers and sweet cherry tomatoes now that the plants have bounced back
🌶️ Peppers – snacking peppers are back in abundance, plus bell peppers and a nice mix of spicy varieties
🥗 Greens & Roots – arugula, lettuce, radish, turnips with greens, and beets with greens
🎃 Squash – delicata and butternut
🌱 Microgreens – crunchy mix, radish, pea, and broccoli

From the pasture:
🍗 Pasture-raised chicken
🥚 Eggs
🥩 Limited grass-fed beef (more coming this fall once we get our next cows processed)

📍 Stone Pillar Farmstand: Saturday 9–12
📍 Derwood Farmers Market (Neighborhood Church, Rockville): Saturday 9–1

Come stock up and say hi—we’d love to share a little green pasture happiness with you this weekend!

🚜 Big Chicken News from Stone Pillar Farm! 🐔

✨ New Product: Our very first pasture-raised Chicken Sausage and Ground Chicken are here! We took a special batch of birds to a USDA processor so we could offer clean, wholesome sausage and ground meat made with all organic ingredients—no fillers, nitrates, nitrites, MSG, or preservatives.

🥩 Fresh Chicken Is Back: We processed chickens on Wednesday, so fresh, never frozen whole chickens are available through Saturday. Our chicken will be just 3 days old on Saturday—compare that to grocery store chicken, which is typically 7–10 days old and can sit on shelves for up to 14 days.

❄️ Bulk Whole Chicken Sale: Our freezers are packed, so we’re running another bulk sale on whole chickens. This is the best time to stock your freezer for the winter months ahead. A small chest freezer lets you buy in bulk, save money, and keep a reliable supply of healthy meat on hand.

📍 Where to Find Us:

Farmstand – Saturday, 9 AM to 12 PM

Derwood Market – Saturday, 9 AM to 1 PM

Come see us, taste the difference, and stock up while supplies last!

Fresh chicken is back! 🐓

We processed birds this week and have fresh, never frozen chicken (whole and parts) available now through Saturday—after that it all goes to the freezer. Last time you loved it, so we brought it back again!

Thanks to cooler weather, we also have arugula and a full lineup of microgreens (crunchy mix, sunflower, pea, broccoli, and radish). Plus, we just harvested red viking potatoes to go with our fingerlings.

You’ll also find:
🥚 Pasture-raised eggs
🥩 Grass-fed beef
🌶️ Bell + spicy peppers
🍅 Slicing + cherry tomatoes
🎃 Butternut, honeynut, delicata squash

📍 This Saturday:

Mike at the farmstand 9–12
Abby at the Derwood Farmers Market 9–1

Come see us and stock up!

Big week at the farm! Our 10-year-old daughter Anna just brought her very first batch of pasture-raised rabbits to market. 🐇✨

She’s taken the rabbit business on as her own — raising, caring for, and now processing her first batch. All rabbit sales go directly to Anna as she takes full responsibility for feed, care, and future batches. She’s learning a ton about animal husbandry, business, and what it means to participate in the full cycle of raising your own food.

We're incredibly proud of her courage, especially in taking part in the processing of her animals.

We’ll have rabbit at the farmstand this Saturday from 9 to Noon — come support Anna's hard work!
