Now accepting reservations for
2025 Fill Your Freezer Chicken CSA
Big changes afoot at Rehoboth Homestead.
- Tony and I planned for 2022 to be our last year selling eggs so we could visit family together occasionally, rather than one staying home to take care of livestock. The hens were rehomed to several families and small homesteads. No more chicken eggs for sale, though I do have duck eggs from our Muscovies.
- I find that after Tony’s death, even though I was the farmer and Tony was the builder/fix-it guy, I really need to focus and concentrate my efforts. I do not plan to re-open the farmstand on Route 9.
- I enjoy animals more than weeding vegetables, so am concentrating on growing great meat chicken for you, through our Fill Your Freezer Chicken CSA. This is coming full circle as meat chickens (and a few laying hens) were what we started with.
- I am blessed with loyal customers who encourage me to keep providing them with veggies, so I am offering a limited number of summer Vegetable CSA shares.
- And for pure enjoyment, I will again offer the Fresh Flower Share. I will also have flower bunches available for sale at 66 Jabez Allen Road.
I am not taking down the web pages on the hens yet, simply because, though this change is needed, erasing the evidence on the web pages just hurts. It was my life for nineteen years and we enjoyed hens and broilers and pigs for several years before becoming a commercial farm. With time they will disappear, but for now … it is a pleasant reminder.
Thank you all for your patronage.
