The Baking Fairy came like the tooth fairy last night, dropping off fresh sourdough goodies while we slept. We are stocked with milk, eggs, treats, pies & will be refreshing cookies, and beef as the day goes on 🥩
Enjoy this dreamy, sunny Monday ✨🌷

Prepping for a wonderful end of the week ☀️🍞🍔🍦🍫

We have sourdough batards in plain & everything bagel plus sourdough cinnamon rolls from Vicki's Doughy Delights .

A special tease for my OG farmstand hay wagon family- fry pie season starts next week! I put a few out from a trial run … whoever gets there first wins 😜

We retocked patties:
Plain
Dill Pickle🥒
Bacon & Cheese 🥓🧀

And some other meat favorites, including 100 % grassfed dorper lamb! 🍗🥩🐑

You may have seen my note if you’ve been by, but we had some devastating theft recently. Some individuals came and took every steak I had, amongst other things without paying their total bill.

So, I’m stocking things much lighter and looking for additional ways to get our favorite products from our favorite farms out into the community!

Enjoy the sunshine & flowers! Thank you to everyone old and new, who continue to stop. All the good, outweighs the bad- by far! We sincerely appreciate it 🥰

Last night, I decided to take an impromptu “ Looking for Deer With Elwood” ride, as his route was dangerously close to my favorite coffee dealer.

On the eve that Elwood passed, I stopped in to visit after closing up the farmstand. I wasn’t really sure what to say but I promised him I would take good care of the cows, the land and the barns. And while I’m at it, some of the old milk route too 😅

Yesterday evening , I drove the same roads, full of twists & turns peppered with idyllic country views. I stopped at End of The Lane Farm to pick up milk, just like Elwood did.

In 2026, things look a little different. It comes already bottled in half gallons, but the honor and commitment -just the same. Our friends Jay and Amanda against all odds, have chosen to keep going.

Keep going. Keep doing the things you love. And share it with others. They can remember you by doing them too❤️

Fresh grass-fed milk is in the cooler. Cheers 🥛🥂

We’ve been quiet around here lately. I’ve struggled to find the right worlds to say. Some days I wan’t to write a 100 page manuscript, others days, just a few.

Our beloved, Elwood Vanderbilt, went to be with the Lord last week! We are rejoicing that he is in Heaven 🙌🏼 How wonderful it must be, to be reunited with the people he’s lost along the way of his 98.5 year journey here on Earth.

But also, a tremendous feeling of loss, when you get the privilege of having someone around that long. They become a magical, almost invincible legend, that lives in your deepest thoughts and memories❤️

Elwood helped put the Old in my Old Vanderbilt Farm 😅 He was my connection to the past- one foot in the present, and another planted in a time that was radically different. It was like hanging out with a time traveler!

One of my favorite past times was asking Elwood off the wall interview questions like: What was it like to p*e in an outhouse? Or how did you make hay with draft horses and no square bailer? How did you know the weather? What was your first date like? If you could have done anything different in life, would you have?

Tomorrow, we will be getting down in our finest red ( 🚜IYKYK) colored clothing and country western vibe accessories to celebrate the joy and life of Elwood! I’ve attached his Obituary with the details regarding services, if you are interested in stopping.

The death of Elwood doesn’t bring the farm to a slow demise, or screeching halt. On the contrary, an even bigger fire has been lit to preserve, defend, restore and grow The Old Vanderbilt Farm. Our mantra is: keep going ❤️

View Elwood Leroy Vanderbilt's obituary, send flowers and sign the guestbook.
