Dolly-Rock Farm

Our family has a new meat supplier!! On our first visit, my husband, daughter and I felt very welcomed as Amanda toured us around the farm. It was such a treat seeing all the animals, who looked very content and healthy. Especially fun were the piglets, who were making happy piggy noises as they rooted in the yard, and wow- some of the most beautiful chickens I've ever seen! Amanda is very knowledgeable and passionate about the care of her animals and also about healthy eating. We left with a sampler box of beef, pork, and rabbit. And a couple dozen eggs, too. Everything was so good, I just can't say enough about how we enjoyed it.

I especially enjoyed being able to eat pork again! You see, I had developed an intolerance for pork and for years had avoided eating it because I'd get soooo sick from it. But after talking with Amanda about the problems some people have with pork because of the nitrates in cured ham & bacon and/or the hormones & antibiotics store-bought pork contains, I hesitantly agreed to try a little of her pork (which is NOT cured with nitrates/nitrites). And for the first time in 7 years, I was able to eat pork chops, ham, *and* bacon without getting sick! Amazing!!

We've since purchased a quarter of beef and have ordered a half hog, too. I'm so glad to have good, quality meat in the freezer for my family. And I'm really looking forward to eating some barbeque pork ribs soon! We're definitely ordering more meat through Dolly-Rock Farm! Thank you for being so wonderful, Amanda & Chris!
