Common Ground Food Co-op Sad news, folks - Country Cottage Farm will no longer be supplying us with eggs or lamb at this time. Deborah and Phil have been struggling to make it work, but its a huge investment of energy to sell locally and it was no longer viable for them. There is a glimmer of hope - they say they *may* try to start back up in the spring, we'll keep you posted.

Family owned and operated farm located on 17 acres of fertile land in Fisher IL. All of our food is produced using sustainable farming methods-free range poultry, crop rotation and all-natural fertilizers. Farm fresh goods include fruits, vegetables, poultry, eggs and lamb.

We haven't heard details on their plans for the animals. They are conventional farmers (that's their main income) so they will not be giving up the farm itself. We'll see if we can find out details on the future of the animals and get back to you here.

Common Ground Food Co-op is wondering if anyone has a remote controlled car they would be willing to lend for a deli improvement project... This could lead to a free cookie and maybe even a hug!
