Reviews for: Weathertop Farm

We have been purchasing chickens and turkeys from Weathertop for two years and have always been pleased. When you pull up to the farm, you can see the animals everywhere, running around in their own healthy environments. More importantly, when you eat the meat you can taste the difference. The poultry has a rich flavor, very fresh. The meat looks clean and has a lovely color. You can smell how fresh it is when you pick it up.

It's easy to schedule your order for pick up and pricing is very fair. They have lots of other meats available; we plan to try rabbits later this year.

I'd stopped eating factory farm meat after reading Omnivore's Dilemma & similar reading material, but missed eating meat, esp. pork. Looked around & found this farm less than an hour away. We ordered 1/2 spring hog (pasture-raised) & nearly had to wait for fall, but someone cancelled their order so we got theirs! Chose all the cuts we wanted and picked up from the butcher - also close by - whose facility is immaculate. (This is NOT expensive; I think it was less than $2/lb. for very lean meat) So far, it's been way better than expected. The first thing I made was 1-inch-thick chops with Julia Child's Cotes de Porc Sauce Nenette - oh my my my. The sausage is PERFECT, esp. on homemade biscuits, and I can't even tell you how good uncured pork belly (a.k.a. bacon) is, sliced thick, coarsely peppered, on a BLT. My husband is always skeptical when I go off on a tangent like this, but he is so happy. He made himself a bacon cheeseburger the other night & grinned w i d e. We're picking up some chickens from these folks soon & can't wait to see how they turn out. Thanks so much, Weathertop, for raising farm animals the right way.
