🦉 🚨 NEW EMPLOYEE ALERT 🚨 🦉

Everyone meet our newest market team member!
His official job title is: Director of Squirrel Security 🐿️😂

We brought him in to help protect the goods from our furry little produce thieves… but we’re not fully convinced he understands the assignment yet. 😅

Now we need YOUR help naming him!
Drop your best owl names in the comments 👇

Funny names?
Farm names?
Patriotic names?
We want to hear them all!

The winning name just might become permanent around here. 🇺🇸🦉

You will find these items in the shed. The smore cookies are HUGE! My son said they are the best I’ve made. 🤷‍♀️

Hey everyone! 🇺🇸🎉 Just a heads up — we’re having a small market this weekend! If you’re planning on grabbing bread, shoot me a message because I won’t be baking a ton. With all the graduations, dance recitals, and folks heading out of town, it’s shaping up to be a lighter weekend.
We’ll still have:
• Your favorite chocolate chip cookies
• Sweet biscuits for strawberry shortcake
• Rhubarb crisp
• Party mix
• Giant s’more cookies
• Dubi puppy chow
And more

Thanks for understanding! 🥖✨

🍓 Dana’s Latin King Style Strawberry Shortcake Biscuits – coming to the market next weekend!

These sweet biscuits are my own take on the style you get at Latin King. I came up with this version myself, and it’s become my birthday dessert every year.
Juicy strawberries soaked in their own sweet sugar sauce, layered with my fluffy sweet biscuits and rich vanilla mascarpone cream. It’s basically a strawberry shortcake done my way – biscuit, strawberries and syrup, cream, another biscuit, more strawberries, and finished with that silky mascarpone whipped topping.

Chef’s kiss every time.
My cream: A pint of heavy whipping cream whipped with real vanilla, a dash of salt, and half a cup of powdered sugar, then folded with an 8 ounce tub of mascarpone cheese.

Pre-orders accepted! Friday Morning pick up

Grab some biscuits and make the full thing at home. These sell out fast.
