✨Good morning Tri-Cities!

📍129 Fairridge Rd. Johnson City, TN 37604

⚠️A quick and important announcement for you all:

Our chickens are officially going through their annual molting phase, which means all of our hens have temporarily stopped laying.

Unfortunately, we will not be able to have farm fresh eggs available this weekend at the farm stand until they have completed their molting phase. We apologize for the inconvenience and know the timing isn’t great since Halloween Bingo weekend starts on Saturday (10/24).

As soon as things are back up and running again, we will let you all know.

♻️We still have the egg carton return bin available if you’d like to donate any egg cartons. It is always located inside the farm-stand during the week, and to the left of the farm-stand on the weekends.

Please feel free to support another local farm-stand in the area for eggs this week by joining the East Tennessee Farmstands group here on Facebook! There are so many options readily available to provide for you and your family!🥰

We are still looking forward to a great weekend in the farm-stand this weekend🙌🏻 Feel free to stop by anytime between 10AM-5:30PM for baked goods, handmade items, and MORE!

As always, thank you for supporting local, the health & wellness of our fluffy friends🐓🦆, and our growing homestead!😊
