John will be attending the Idaho Falls Farmers Market (Key Bank parking lot) on June 2nd from 9 to 1 pm. He will make an additional stop at the Old Town Pocatello Office (420 N Main in Pocatello) from 3 to 3:30 pm.
Our next trip to Idaho Falls Farmers Market, and drop off in Pocatello, will most likely be on June 23rd. We think we’ll be trying to keep up a once every three week schedule thru most of July. Our ability to respond to pre-orders will be severely limited in the period directly after my mid June surgery so if you know you need items for the 4th of July or late June/early July you might want to get your requests in now. John will be maxed out trying to keep the farm, family and home going and still attend markets-it is unlikely that he’ll have the time to send out order confirmation emails, put bundles together and send out order total email etc.
While we encourage pre-requesting/ordering we want to remind our customers that we are always willing to adjust an order up until the time it leaves our possession. We don’t want our customers to feel that they must buy something just because they included it in their pre-request.
· We also have a few bone-in chuck roasts (7 bone style) in our inventory. We also have some rack of lamb roasts with a bit longer rib bones (for that frenched look). We also have extra thick loin and rib chops, some smaller bone-in shoulder roasts, some large shoulder roasts (4 ish lbs) and some bone-in half leg roasts (4 ish lbs).
· We are continuing to take deposits for quarter half and whole beef which will be delivered in early 2013. See http://www.laufamilyfarm.com/whole-half-lamb/ for more information.
· We have 3 beef bundles that save you 10% off buying the same items individually. You can see the details on our bundles website page (http://www.laufamilyfarm.com/beef-bundles/ )
· We have beef dog and marrow bones and lamb dog bones available. We also have lamb heart and a variety of beef organs. Let us know if you would be interested in purchasing some for yourself or your animal friends.
· We currently have 4 kinds of beef sausage and 4 kinds of lamb sausage in stock-Beef Andouille, Bratwurst, Sweet Italian and salami and Lamb n Apple, Garlic and Rosemary Lamb, Lamb Merguez and Italian Lamb w/ sundried tomatoes.
· We have several yarns that are from our naturally colored ewes-Shooter, Jenna, Amber blended with a white, and Darky blended with a white. In addition, we have made a fingering weight yarn from our Targhee ram’s fleece-it is so soft and is a lovely natural white. We also have some rug yarn and extra bulky yarn available. The yarns are now posted on Ravelry and I’m building a Facebook page for all our wooly postings: http://on.fb.me/xAkd2k. You can meet some of these ladies on their webpages: http://www.laufamilyfarm.com/our-wool/.
· We have a Facebook page for Lau Family Farm, LLC. I hope you will find it interesting and useful. http://bit.ly/laufamilyfarm.
The vast majority of the ewes and cows have lambed now so things are calming down in that realm a bit. The work of keeping the livestock on fresh pasture, and with drinking water, is now if full swing. John and his helper are busily repairing our electric interior fences, and exterior barbed wire fences. In the next several weeks the process of putting up whatever hay we can will begin. The relatively dry winter seems to be showing up in slow pasture and hay growth this spring. We can just hope that we get some timely precipitation and we are able to grow enough hay and pasture for this year.
We had a pretty successful lambing season with quite a few sets of triplets and twins. The vast majority of the ewes delivered without assistance and most have been able to adequately feed all their babies. We’ve given away 12 lambs to be fed by a friend’s goats and will probably give a couple more away this week. Our daughter is determined to keep some of the triplet families intact and bottle feed them. She and I are pretty much splitting that chore.
We are hoping to get the lambs and ewes vaccinated on Friday, and I’m thinking John will soon be scheduling our day to vaccinate all our cows and calves. John is working extra hours to pick up the slack when I am sidelined by my injury.
We thank all of you that have supported us over the last nearly 8 years!
Please don’t hesitate to let us know how we can improve our products or services.
Thank you for your continued business!
