Labor of Love Homestead is a small homestead raising dairy goats, chickens, kune kune pigs, mini donkeys and gardening. We work to be self sufficient. We bake breads, make goat milk soaps and lotions. We provide for our family and the community.

A note from the Co-manager:
Watch for more listings from this farmer, coming soon! Meanwhile, the Boners have stepped up to fill a need at our market, a need created when the goats at Aussie Acres went on summer break. Aussie Acres goat milk will be missed, and replaced by Labor of Love goat milk.

I’m playing catch-up as usual this time of year, but wanted to make mention of our new farmers and a few of the other new products available.

She’d love for you to take advantage of her situation and get some of these goodies for yourself!

This is a half-hearted attempt at finding some/most of the newer items on our market. No guarantee of thoroughness is included! My busiest time of year has me running pretty tired.

If you would be interested in posting these on local facebook groups for me, so I can get more than 4 hours of sleep tonight, please text or email me. I have a list of groups to which a post could easily be made. I just have no energy to do it.

OK, I was silly to think I could get all the new items in one newsletter! Next week I will introduce two new farmers, and do justice to their beautiful offerings. For now, these are some items deserving of your attention. Please look through the whole list!


(Row 1) Endive, Red Russian Kale, and Spring Lettuce from CS3 Farms.
(Row 2) Strawberries, bunching onions, and organic radishes from Country Road Homestead.
(Row 3) Yellow Jubilee tomato plant from Cheryl’s Neighborhood Garden, several varieties of heirloom tomato plants from Dogwood Valley Greenhouse, several types of vegetable seedlings from McPeak Homestead.

(Row 5) 30 lb Beef Deal from Triple T Cattle Farms, Sirloin Steak from Solace Farm, Broiler Chicken from Wayne Diller.
(Row 6) Pecan cookies, Maple Budino, and Berry Oaty Muffin from Merriwether Bakes.
