Hello from TF!

Looks like we've got a gorgeous weather weekend which is perfect because we have an amazing line-up of farm fun so we hope you'll visit us (at least a few more times before the season ends....in 5 weeks)!

This weekend is looking a bit cool so throw those flannels in the car and make plans to join us by the fire! (Bonus points if you're the person the smoke is always attracted to. 😂)

Burger of the Week: A Burger Named Goat

A toasted ciabatta bun
100% grassfed beef patty
Creamy Goat cheese
Roasted Roma tomatoes
Garlic & fresh basil mayo
Drizzled with a balsamic reduction
Optional, but not optional: lettuce & red onion from the Burger Bar

Another fan favorite BOTW!

A Burger Named Goat....even if you don't love goat cheese but just tolerate it, you'll probably really love this burger. It's worth getting, even if only for the garlic & basil mayo. 😋
Bonus Fun: Feed a leftover fry to a Sheep Named Goat (the burgers namesake) before you leave.

Farm Store Sales 🐐

You'll find all goat products and all G.O.A.T. (Greatest Of All Time) products on sale in the farm store and online this week, including ground beef, bacon, Onion-Leek brats, and more!!

Free gift with every on-farm store purchase >$100 this weekend too!

You can expect to him to perform recognizable cover songs on his play bass, lead, rhythm and sing to a drum track. rom genres across the board. You’ll hear classic rock, country, soul, and pop from Jimmy Hendrix, Styx, Ricky Van Shelton to Jason Aldean, Rick Springfield, Ottis Redding, Wilson Pickett, and Al Green, literally a little something for everyone.

Enough lead guitar already! I'm ready to be impressed by a bassist! Are you??

LIVE MUSIC from Nick Hensley, 5-8pm

Hensley’s alias, stage name and alter ego, Love Songs For Angry Men, was born as a joke on the editor of the City Pages, 10 years later...THE NAME WON’T GO AWAY! Hensley’s 3 STUDIO ALBUMS were released to sold out crowds in Saint Paul and Mpls, MN. The albums are available at all major retailers and the web. All three records have received rave reviews from different media outlets including Paste Magazine and AltCountry.com and a “best of” 2014 local selection of the City Pages.
Hensley has maintained a full schedule since 1998 playing more than 200 shows a year throughout the North America and overseas.

Okay, that was really impressive and the only non-lead guitar solo act we know of, so now back to the lead guitar!

Sunday, September 8

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

UPDATES & REMINDERS

First, the bar is FULL of lots of great drinks! We're moving into fun fall-ish beers now and playing with some new seltzer flavors. 🍻

Now that we are post Labor Day, schedules do start to change a bit:

Friday music is not scheduled until we see how the weather looks.

Music Friday & Saturday starts earlier now, at 5pm.

Open Later!

The farm store will now be open until 6pm on Mondays and Tuesdays. Winter hours are still being decided, any thoughts? Hit reply!

Closing Earlier??

The "ish"s are back on Friday and Saturday night closing times since it gets dark early and can get very cold early. We may close at 8:30 if the weather and darkness lead us to believe no one else is coming, so 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. Just one more. :)

Closing, closing

Sunday, October 6th is our official last Burger Night of 2024.

We may do pop-ups on the weekends if the weather is nice, depends on how the pre-winter projects are moving along. Let us know if you want to help!

Hope to see you on the farm or online soon!!

Your farmer & flannel & fire-loving friend,

Stephanie Schneider

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.
