We are excited to offer an additional drop location for our families in the Cary, NC and surrounding areas!
We started the Wake Forest Local Food Collaborative in June 2022 and it has become to popular that we are adding a monthly drop in Cary starting May 2024. I am so proud to be able to offer local grass fed/finished beef and lamb, pastured pork and eggs, raw milk, organic elderberry syrup, organic vegetables and sourdough. The drop is at Core Foundations Chiropractic on the 1st Sunday each month from 4pm-5pm.
Meet our farmers
Hawkfield Manor Timberlake, NC – Grassfed, Grass-Finished beef and lamb, raised with no growth hormones or antibiotics, on no-spray Mob-Grazed pastures. Jonathan and Heather are passionate about Regenerative Practices, using Silvo Pasture, Traditional pastures, Fruit tree placements, as well as Rotational Grazing with their cattle, sheep, goats, and poultry guarded by their livestock guardian dogs. Their 6 children join them in pasture management and daily livestock chores, but most importantly they are invested in Hawkfield Manor via partial cattle herd ownership. In so doing, they are discipling the next generation of regenerative ranchers to be responsible, and full of integrity..
My Meat Farm Kittrell, NC – Woodland/Pasture raised pork. They root in the ground for grubs, play in the mud and are supplemented with seasonal vegetables and non GMO grain. 100% antibiotic and hormone free as well. Yevette and Jordan’s offerings have favorites like chops and roasts but also fun brat varieties like spinach & feta! They also have incredible raw milk.
Double Batch Elderberry Wake Forest, NC – Small batch Elderberry Syrup made with organic ingredients and local raw NC honey. Made to order.
Many Hands Farm – Small family farm in Louisburg, NC offering freshly milled whole wheat bread, granola, sourdough artisan bread, and sourdough sandwich bread, They offer year round salad produce including microgreens, salad mix, head lettuce, Swiss chard, kale, carrots, and radishes. Everything is grown organically and will last anywhere from a week to a month.
Penny Blossoms Flower Farm – Mother/daughter duo flower farm in Macon, NC. Chemical free flowers using regenerative farming methods. They will be offering seasonal regular and mini bouquets!
How Does This Work?
There is no required order amount or quantity however we want these amazing farmers to be able to rely on our families orders so I ask that you commit to placing an order monthly.
It took me about 8 months to completely phase out grocery store meat/dairy/eggs so take your time if you are making this transition for your family. You will pay more than what you pay at the grocery store however the quality is unmatched and the peace of mind that you have knowing that no matter what the food system is doing, your family will be provided for makes it worth it! We all remember the feeling of empty store shelves a few years ago. That is what urged me to do this!
The Wednesday before each order is due, I will send an email reminder. I will also include any specials, new products or sales. I will also send each link or way to order. You will have all the details you need! You don’t need to be on the email list. You can just add a reminder to your calendar however seeing the specials or any new offerings can be helpful.
- You will order directly from each farmer.
- Payment is made directly to the farmer.
- Pickup is the 1st Sunday of each month from 4:30-5:30pm at Core Foundations Chiropractic 1517 Old Apex Rd Ste 118 Cary, NC. NOTE: you can absolutely arrange to pick up your order from each farmer if you choose.
This has been such a blessing because now you can pickup at one location and get all your needs met. And you have the opportunity to talk with the amazing farmers that grew your food.
