Preston Hollow – Celebrate Mother’s Day weekend, Saturday and Sunday, May 13 and 14, with a tasty brunch buffet right on the farm, and a tour to see the farm’s mothers and babies. There will be goat kids, piglets and chicks to see, and may be the first of the season lambs, too!
The brunch buffet will be featured from 11am to 3pm. Heather Ridge Benedict is a poached egg and cured pork loin on a farm made English muffin, topped with ramp hollandaise. Other items include Corned Beef Hash, Spring Rice Pilaf, Marinated Asparagus Salad, Smoked Chicken Cornbread, Eggs any style made to order and French Chocolate Pots de Creme. Freshly roasted organic fair trade coffee is available as well as teas and juice. The cost of the buffet is $24 adult and kids pay their age.
A farm tour starts at 11am, free to café guests. Guests will see the momma goats and their kids, as well as baby chicks and piglets. The grownup llamas, alpacas, geese, laying hens and guinea hens can be seen, too. And a flock of very pregnant sheep!
The Cafe and farm store is open from 11am-3pm. The farm store offers Heather Ridge Farm’s Animal Welfare Approved grassfed meats, pastured poultry, artisan sausages and regional dairy products and cheeses.
