Good morning from Together Farms!

Wow, so after a pretty tough weather year it looks like we are going to end strong!! How awesome is that?!?

I sure hope you can join us this weekend or next weekend to enjoy a little fall sunshine (both weekends are looking really great right now, but, as us seasoned Wisconsin weather-watchers know, that can all change in 5 minutes).

If you saw yesterday's email you already know the Burger of the Week and why we are doing it, so just a 2 second recap: It's Italian week, the farm is in Naples township in Mondovi (both Italian cities), Naples could be where wood-fired pizzas started, so gotta do a pizza burger.

Burger of the Week: The Jimmy Pesto 🍕❤🍔

Fresh-from-the-herb-spiral basil
Smoked provolone cheese
Smashed Italian sausage patty
Pepperoni
Roasted garlic marinara sauce
100% grassfed beef patty
toasted with garlic butter brioche bun

We do not have a picture of this burger yet and it's so named not because it contains any pesto but because my girls watch Bob's Burgers waaaaaaaaay too much. zoom!

People last night were LOVING this burger!!

Get the best of both worlds this weekend!
Pizza + Burger = ❤❤

🍻 Currently on tap:
Spotted Cow (New Glarus)
Cowbell Cream Ale (Bloomer Brewing)
Blackberry and once that's gone, Cranberry Lemonade Beer (Sand Creek)
Downtown Brown (Pearl Street)
Fluffhead (Zymurgy)
Gunpowder (The Brewing Projekt)
Honeycrisp Hard Cider (Maiden Rock Cidery)
Minnesconsin (Hop & Barrel)
Mudpuppy Porter (Central Waters)
Oktoberfest (Lazy Monk)
Warped Speed (Lake Louie)

Nobody took me up on the stein holding competition in yesterday's email, so LAST CALL: should we do a stein holding competition on Saturday, Oct 5th to celebrate Oktoberfest (goes until the 6th in Germany)? (could be the start of doing an oktoberfest thing here every year....just sayin...this is how those things start....)
Free to play, winner gets a TF beer mug and $50 in a bar tab good through 2025....what say ye?? 🍺🍺🍺

LIVE MUSIC from Brian Bethke, 5-8pm

Brian Bethke is an American singer-songwriter known for his silky-smooth voice and lasting impact on the hearts of his fans and listeners. Bethke has release 8 album released with the help of Promotion Music Records & Broken Wrist Records throughout the years. Bethke' s health related battle with Ankylosing Spondylitis has limited his live performances availability so it is a real treat when you're able to see him perform live.

Brian enjoys creating AI images and I think the reason why is because if you look too long at this picture your head will start to hurt and music on a farm in real life, will be the only solution to take the pain away. Kudos Brian, kudos.

UPDATES & REMINDERS

Sunday, October 6th is our official last Burger Night of 2024. We may do pop-ups if the unpredictable weather cooperates and we have no idea what 2025 might bring so plan accordingly!!

The "ish"s are back on Friday and Saturday night closing times since it gets dark early and can get very cold early. If you are coming after 8pm, call or text to make sure the kitchen will be ready for you!

The bar and fire keep going until everyone's had enough though. So no hurry there. :)

Remember a flannel!

Your farmer & friend,

Stephanie Schneider

Last Official Burger Night Weekend

Good morning from Together Farms!Well, the end is here. Seems a bit surreal this year.Perhaps because it's basically still summer-like outside? Maybe it's because it's finally stopped raining (although we have now swung a little too far in the other direction 🙄)? Perhaps because we had such a fun team this year that we do not want the end to come? They got you. Maybe we just don't want to stop seeing your smiling faces? Maybe it's because we have no more trees left to fall on anything? 😂Hard to say for sure. All I know is that it's time and we are going to eek out every last bit of the 2024 season that we can!! As we have done every year, this week's BOTW is Dealer's Choice. Burger of the Week: Dealer's Choice You've trusted the kitchen this long. (I mean, look at those faces.....how could you not trust them??)You will have the option to say spicy or not spicy. You can tell us if there are things you loathe but otherwise, you have to sit back and wait for the results. A surprise burger! 🥳 Farm Store Sales 🍔 Don't worry!! We are NOT going to leave you hanging all winter! In the farm store everything you need for an EPIC Burger Night at HOME is on sale!!

Saturday, October 5 LIVE MUSIC from Jeff White, 5-8pm Jeff began honing his songwriting skills working the red-eye shift as a taxi driver. Railroad conductors, heartbroken men & women after bar close and wild out-of-towners were all frequent riders who freely opened up about their personal lives. Their late night conversations were all inspirations to the genesis of his upcoming career as a songwriter and entertainer.Jeff has toured the lower 48 from coast to coast as well as England, Scotland and Wales, singing about the realities, illusions and the wide emotional spirit of love and life in America. Much in the vein of Johnny Cash, Jeff writes and sings his own songs but also performs unique interpretations of other songs he admires. He has 6 albums under his belt and one is with Charlie Parr & international folk music legend, Greg Brown. Americana/Alt-country from the hills of Western Wisconsin. Blending warm tones, reverbs, delays & vibrato with outlaw grit, Jeff White sings of love, loss & lust with an Americana vibe.We are so excited to have Jeff back on our stage!!
