Hello from the farm!!

I know, it's too early to start counting down, but in less than 2 weeks school starts for us!

And, all the crazy weather in the first half means we have a lot of lost time we still need to make up.

So I feel the need to let you know that there are only 8 official weeks of Burger Night left after this one.

8!? 😲

And, who knows when w*!#er will start or what the weather will be like for the next 8!? weekends we have left or what in the world might happen between now and October (for real, the world right now 😬). But here's what I think we do know:

the weather this weekend looks amazing.
the store was just stocked with a ton of new products you are going to LOVE & must check out before the sell out.
we have amazing music Friday AND Saturday night
this week's burger special was LOVED last year
you aren't getting any younger
this is probably the "cheapest" the food and drinks are ever going to be.
all the big pull-tab winners are still up for grabs!
we just got a bunch of new drinks!
you gotta make hay while the sun shines!

Here's the other thing I know: over the winter I asked you guys what your favorite Burger of the Weeks were in 2023 and a bunch of you said the garlic burger, last year called Take My Breath Away.

Well, this must've been a very busy week last year because I never got a picture and I never explained all the toppings online. But, we found the sauce recipe and we think we remembered everything else, you'll have to let us know how close we are:

Burger of the Week: Never Enough 🧄

creamy garlic sauce
crispy garlic chips
roasted garlic spread
caramelized onions
100% grassfed beef patty
toasted, buttery brioche bun

Do you laugh out loud when a recipe says "1 or 2 cloves of garlic"?
Have you never thought or said "whoa, that's too much garlic"?
Do you have a garlic scented candle?
Do you wish we had scratch-n-sniff email technology so you too could smell the heavenly roasted garlic pictured above?
Do you prefer to play it safe when it comes to vampire protection?
If you answered "yes" to any of the above questions then you need to try our Never Enough BOTW!!

Farm Store Sales

In the store we will have garlic cheese, garlic dips, garlic bread, sauces, seasonings (organic and local!), stickers, infused salts, rubs, meal kits, marinades, snack sticks and more! You can find some items online too.

We also just got a TON of new products in: tea towels we love, BEAUTIFUL jewelry, more stickers (it's hard to stop), funny mugs (pet and horse lovers especially) and more! I highly, highly recommend doing a walk-through. 😍

Note that since we have 8?! weeks left we are likely not restocking some of the more Burger Night customer things and definitely not the seasonal things so once they sell, they might be gone for a long time.

LIVE MUSIC from The Brianna Rae Duo, 6-9pm

Formed in 2018, The Brianna Rae Band hails from the LaCrosse, WI area and performs as the BRB duo or full band, which consists of 5 members that span over 75 years of collective experience playing worldwide from stadium festivals to corner nooks. Friday night we'll be hosting the band's duo. You'll hear classic rock, alternative, pop rock, blues, originals, and some undefined styles of music from the 60s to the present. They love to put on a show filled with surprises!

We'll be getting the Duo from the Brianna Rae Band! This is their first time playing here so let's give them a warm welcome!!

Saturday, August 10

LIVE MUSIC from The Woodland Spring, 5:30-8:30pm

The Woodland Spring is a high-energy acoustic band from Eau Claire, Wisconsin. Tim, Caleb and Dan come together to form tight vocal harmonies, intricate well-crafted original songs.
Tim Litscher: Acoustic guitar, vocals
Caleb Horne: Mandolin, Acoustic guitar, vocals
Dan Turner: Bass, Acoustic guitar, vocals

The band that introduced me to bluegrass - my absolute favorite music now! I went almost 40 years without really even hearing it. It's all I play at the Burger Night bar now and so many people thank me for playing a bluegrass channel. I'm not alone in this desire!! So why there isn't a mainstream bluegrass radio channel I'll never understand. Probably a conspiracy to make us sad so we buy more pharmaceuticals (I hope you're ready for round 1 of trivia tonight!! 😉).

Sunday, August 11

Family Day! Buy one get one FREE kids meals all day!

Updates

Well, I did the best I could to find you a ticketing option that avoided fees but all I did was make it impossible for you to get tickets at all (I swear that any success we have is despite me, not because of me), so, all tickets are in Eventbrite now, should be easy peesy!

Easy tickets:

Wine Dinner, Aug 14 (menu updated with wines!)
Murder Mystery Party, Aug 21 (early bird pricing until Wednesday!)

TF Event Calendar

We would LOVE to see you on the farm soon! Too far away? We've been uploading lots of reels and we'll be working on lots more, you can watch them here (share, like, comment to help us for free!).

Have an awesome weekend!!

Your farmer & friend,

Stephanie Schneider

p.s. remember, time is elusive. Your mind could think 8 weeks is actually 2 years and suddenly the BN 2024 season is over. Somehow I think 10 years ago was 2001 AND that we've only lived on the farm for about 6 years now (moved here in 2009), so don't let it fool you too!!

Burger Night Week 9 (of 23)

Week 9: Pizza Burger + Bobs Burgers + Karaoke Win $500 for singing Sat night!?

Burger Night Week 8 (of 23)

Burger Night is open, rain or shineThursday & Friday 4pm-9pmSaturday noon-9pmSunday noon-7pm Welcome to Week 8 of the Burger Night season and the official start of summer! The weather proves to be a formidable foe, but it at least looks like rain and cold are not going to be a major factor this weekend! In fact, the pendulum is swinging in the opposite direction but the heat can be beet! We've got oodles of shade, TONS of natural air conditioning and lots of cold drinks (win slushies!) so we'd LOVE if you joined us on the farm for some summer fun! We are slowly but surely working on adding more shady spots! The Weeping Willow is growing crazy fast but we are an impatient bunch and I wanted something now. Note that I know some of the furniture is on it's last "leg" but holy smokes is outdoor furniture expensive, so we'll keep slowly adding and replacing pieces, in the meantime, be gentle with what we've got please. ------------------------------------------------ I'm also pretty excited for this week's Burger of the Week: Beet, Feta Have My Honey! We made this one a million years ago - during the first covid year I believe - but you asked for us to bring it back this winter and, being a sucker for beets, I succumbed to the pressure (I think it was one person 😂). Roasted beets for this weekend's Burger of the Week: Beet, Feta Have My Honey! 😋------------------------------------------------Beet, Feta Have My Honey 🌱 NEW Garlicky roasted beet spread🧀 Feta crumbles🍯 Honey drizzle🐮 100% grassfed beef patty🍞 Toasted, buttery brioche bun Even if you don't love beets (🤨) this is going to be one of those "the sum is better than the parts" type of burger and you're still just going to have to try it!! The young'ins that work here are not expecting very many of these to sell, but I think we should prove them wrong and give them something to think about when it comes to the deliciousness that is roasted beets. So, whaddya say? Wanna help me reshape young minds? It will NOT look very much like this.... This is a picture of the first Beet, Feta Have My Honey BOTW we made several years ago and now we think we can make it EVEN BETTER! Come out and try v2.0 and let us know what you think!------------------------------------------------But wait, there's more! NEW! Now that we are restocked with two different types of beet kvass's we thought we'd do shots of kvass at the bar!! Not sure if you're old? One clue: You do well at tonight's Bird trivia. Second clue: You are really excited for non-alcoholic gut-health-promoting shots of kvass. Third clue: You know what kvass is! 😂 In any case, I hope you're more excited for this than you ever were for jagermeister! 🤮 We just got a ton of brand new ferments in from the Wise Goat that we'll slowly be adding online, unfortunately, these will only be available for on-farm pick-up or local delivery (can't ship them). We're loving these new kvass's so much, you can now order shots of them at the bar! Tomorrow you're going to wake up HEALTHIER from doing shots the night before - how's that for a twist?!------------------------------------------------ Thursday, June 19 Tonight's trivia is all about birds!! Trivia at 7pm: Birds 🐦🕊️🦅🦆🐤 Remember, we give prizes to 1st place, 2nd place and Last place. Bring your friends! (probably the more mature ones. 🙃) ------------------------------------------------ Friday, June 20 LIVE MUSIC from Chris Herriges, 5:30-8:30pm Chris is a highly regarded singer, guitarist and songwriter based in the Twin Cities. Among accomplishments, most noteworthy is probably the large amount of airplay garnered via independent promotion, for a number of original recordings on commercial radio (Rock, Top-40) throughout the U.S., primarily in the 1990's. Also, glowing reviews in many national as well as local publications, also primarily in the early to mid '90's. Can currently be seen regularly in solo-acoustic and duo performances throughout the Twin Cities area and greater Minnesota and Wisconsin. This will be Chris's first time at Together Farms! Let's give him a warm welcome! Like, really warm. Too warm? Nah. We've got shade and fans and wine slushies and cold beer and a pond full of snapping turtles and leeches if we get really, really desperate.------------------------------------------------ Saturday, June 21 LIVE MUSIC from Olivia Maro, 5:30-8:30pm Just a few of the artists she covers...

Well worth the drive to enjoy the atmosphere, burgers 🍔 and animals. The pigs were my fave. 🐷 Will be going back several times with our family each season! Oh, and the fries….🍟 SO good.
