Farm Update

PORK BULK SAUSAGE:

We are planning on making our sausage monthly. We maintain a running spreadsheet so pre-order by sending an email to orders@oliverproduce.com -we will call when we make.

This is a personal venture of making bulk pork sausage – this is separate from the farm. We have a Virginia Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services inspected and certified kitchen. The sausage comes to you looking like hamburger in 1 pound (quart bag) and 5 pounds (gallon bag) that you patty yourself. Not only for breakfast, many use it in meatloaf, spaghetti sauce, lasagna, sausage balls, etc. 

 

Please be mindful that the sausage is prepared from meat cut the day we grind and only has spices – NO preservatives. We take pride in making sausage the way the older generations did and kindly request you pick it up within 2 days of our phone call. It can be in your refrigerator for 5 days 37 degrees or below before freezing. 

Taking orders for making. $20 5 pounds/gallon bag or $5 1 pound/quart bag. EMAIL ORDERS@OLIVERPRODUCE.COM with the BEST phone number and quantity you are looking to get.

STRAWBERRIES: We will not have strawberries this year.

SUMMER VEGETABLES:  Sweet corn, butterbeans and crowder peas.

Pre-order at orders@oliverproduce.com: since we sell out of butterbeans BEFORE we even harvest, I strongly recommend sending us an email early to get on the list. We keep a spreadsheet of your interest or amount you want of all our produce. When harvest begins, I contact customers on our spreadsheet before I send out emails or post to facebook. Early bird gets the goodies in this case!

Everything is picked fresh the day you want to pickup.

SHARE OUR EMAIL ADDRESS WITH YOUR FRIENDS: Being on our email list, news@oliverproduce.com, gets you a heads up to our season. When they respond to the above email address, please include name and city.
Our FACEBOOK: Oliver Farms Produce – Smithfield, VA  is another way to know what’s happening on the farm.

Hope to see you at the farm this year!
