Happy New (and hopefully improved) Year to you all! If you didn’t have a chance to see our Christmas video you can find it here:

As we are still facing significant and needed restrictions due to COVID, we wanted to update you on our farmhouse sales and how to access our winter produce. As some of you know, our December, January and February markets are cancelled as we await the recommendations from Dr. Henry and the arrival of a vaccine for our vulnerable population. We initially thought we might open our online store again for the next couple of months, but that just seemed so impersonal somehow for a farm like ours, so her’s what we want to do…. Below you wil find some of the products we have available over the winter months. The eggs will be out at our West Saanich Roadside stand most days and there is a box for payment. They are $6.00 per dozen at present. To check on availability or to order any of the other items, please just send us an email at annethfarm@gmail.com. That way we can have a conversation and find out what you need and when you need it by. Many of the products are pictured above…
1) Eggs 6.00/dozen - avaiilable at roadside stand
2) Herb pots: Fresh Genovese Basil, Thai Basil, Thyme and Oregano growing in 4 inch pots. Perfect for your kitchen windowsill. $3.00 each.
3) Fresh Kale: ( for your winter source of Iron, vitamin C, Folate, and omega 3s ) $4.00/bunch
4) Dried beans: Our famous beans for soaking and slow baking with your favourite ingredients- just check our recipes tab for how to cook. $6.50/pound
4) Spaghetti squash: $2.00/pound
5) Lamb: We have a number of cuts available, including ground ($11.50/pound) cubed stew ($13.00/pound), merguez sausage ($10.00/pound)-roasts and chops. (pricing upon request).
6) Wool dryer balls: Personalized white: $30.00 for 3. Gorgeous Cotswold with felted curls (from our lovely ram Cinnamon) $25.00 for 3.
7) Bespoke Anneth Aprons ( these are all individual and take time to create) $30.00-$50.00 depending on the fabric. A friend of mine likes to describe these as “the apron you put on to entertain after the messy cooking is done!).
8) Homemade 9 inch fruit pies- (must be ordered at least 1 week in advance) - can be pre baked or frozen/ready to bake -$25.00 each
So let’s try this new way for a while and see how it works. This might seem like a novel and less than efficient approach to marketing, but we really want to connect with each and every one of you during this bleak and grey time of the year, made more so by the pandemic induced isolation we are experiening.
