Hey all, we had a confluence of things come up that mean we won't be at the Elgin Farmers’ Market today and won't have our store open Friday or Saturday this week.

Sorry for the inconvenience! If you have preorders with us or want to grab stuff from Haciendo Coffee Roasters | Air Roasted In Texas or Coyote Creek Farm , no worries, those deliveries are still happening as scheduled! 😁

Sorry, y'all! We are closing today at 1:00 PM and will reopen next week on Friday, at 10:00.

See you soon!

Sourdoughs are baked and cooling! 🍞🤤

If you want to order, you can always send us a DM or text on Wednesday so we can have it ready for pickup on Friday and Saturday. See you at the farm soon!

We're a little short on grass hay for a few days so in the meantime, they boys are getting tree hay!

This stuff was cut from bushy weeds and trees. It's their favorite. 😁

Big if true! We need to spread some mushroom compost in the garden again.

A new study from Chiang Mai University found that soil amended with just 15% spent oyster mushroom (Pleurotus spp.) substrate reduced root-knot nematode gall formation by 85-90% in chili crops. Oyster mushroom mycelium actively traps and digests nematodes using specialized loop-like structures and nematicidal metabolites, essentially hunting the very pests that devastate yields. Critically, this treatment didn’t harm soil bacterial diversity.

In fact, it boosted populations of health-promoting microbes like Actinobacteriota and Acidobacteriota. For growers looking to close the loop on mushroom cultivation, the byproduct may be just as valuable as the harvest itself.

That's right, we still have spots left for our intro to native plants on Saturday, May 16th! We'll go over some of the major native and central Texas-adapted plant options for landscaping and foraging, learn some seed saving techniques, and give you a plan that you can use to keep native plants in your surroundings all year long!

Tickets at the link in bio.

It's been a hard few weeks on the farm, ngl.

But when you're in the thick of it, you sometimes need to just (literally) look up. Don't forget your "why".

LOOKY HERE! 👀

We're proud to announce we are seed oil-free and are now working with to let the world know! 🙌

What does that mean? Well, we don't use common inflammatory and ecologically problematic vegetable seed oils like palm, canola, soybean, safflower, or similar oils in any of our foods. Just olive oil, butter, lard, and tallow! 😁

We also use only organic flour in our bakes (preferably , which is locally milled from wheat grown mostly in Texas and Oklahoma) and use mostly grass-fed butter.

Check out our listing on Seed Oil Scout or DM with any questions about our ingredients. We're happy to explain our ingredient sourcing and cooking techniques to anyone who asks.
