Know Your CNY Farmer: October Rose Farm

October Rose Farm

There is never any shortage of industriousness at October Rose Farm in Moravia, nor of livestock with sass. A pair of handsome boys have joined the herd: Snotar and Skafta, long-haired rams whose offspring may share their Fabio characteristics and produce fine fleece for textiles. The Ewes are eyeing them skeptically but perhaps as spring progresses more than just the snow may thaw.

There is also never any shortage of eggs or poultry. Susan and Brian Underwood are preparing to move their layers from an expansive winter henhouse to the Eggmobile on pasture where the girls will free range until late fall. Cornish chicks are peeping and broilers will be online by mid June.

Produce: pasture-fed poultry including meat-type chickens, free-range eggs and turkeys.

Where: Besides the Market, eggs are available at Wake Robin Farm in Jordan and at Tops in Skaneateles (year round), at Elderberry Pond Farm (June-Nov), or by appointment at October Rose Farm.
