Gelatin has been added to the group orders. Place your order for Gelatin by clicking on “Group Orders” in the category to the left of the Market Page. These are ordered 12 to a case. Place your pre-order, pay ahead and I will order the case to be delivered the following week.

Butter I will be driving back to Mountain Valley Farm on Friday to pick up Butter. If you would like to add butter to your order, place your order online by selecting it from the “Group Order” category. One of our customers mentioned to me that she’d like to order 10 this week taking advantage of the fact that the cows are still grazing summer grass & the butter is dark yellow (lots of Vitamins) whereas cows graze mostly dry grass/hay in the winter months, giving the butter a paler color & less vitamins. Sounds like a good plan to me, especially since butter is so easily frozen.
