Holiday Brook Farm Maple Syrup
We sell all four grades of syrup- Grade A Fancy or Light Amber is light in color and almost floral in flavor, like bottled sunshine- it will light up your day! This is good with fresh fruit. Note: For 2009 we did not get any light amber from our sugarbush this season. Maybe next year!
Grade A Medium Amber has more maple flavor and a heady bouquet that is perfect for Sunday morning pancakes. We got very little of this for our 2009 season. We are sold out!
Gallons~ $55 1/2 Gallons~ $30 Qts~ $18; Pts~ $10;
½ Pints~$6.50
Grade A Dark Amber is rich with flavor and color, it flows across the tongue with delicious sweetness, it is for those who really love maple syrup.
Gallons~ $55 1/2 Gallons~ $30 Quarts~ $18; Pints~ $10;

Grade B is the darkest maple flavor- like it still has the bark on it- not for the faint-hearted, we love it warm over vanilla ice cream.

Compost Prices and Information Our ‘black gold’ compost is made here on the farm of leaves (municipal), horse and cow manure and food waste from area restaurants and grocers. It is turned frequently to aerate and regulate temperature in order to encourage natural bacteria to get to work. Our compost is then screened to remove any clumps, debris or stones so all that is left is beautiful, ready-to-spread compost that is perfect for your garden or lawn. Compost is $40 per yard (contractors/landscapers, please call for prices) plus delivery charge dependent upon distance from farm and which truck is needed to haul the amount of compost you need. We can deliver from 1 yard up to 15 yards at a time.
Don’t know how much you need? We’ve done the calculations for you!
1 yard is 27 cubic feet of material. This covers:
~162 square feet -2″ deep or ~108 square feet- 3″ deep or ~81 square feet- 4″ deep
or ~54 square feet- 5″ deep or ~40 square feet- 6″deep
We are bagging our compost! Bags are $6.25 each. Each bag is 8.4 gallons/1.234 cubic feet. and are weighing in at 40-50lbs (depending on whether it had rained the day before bagging or not). We have pallet discounts for bulk orders. Please call the farm office for details.
We also sell a Topsoil 50/50 blend where we mix our compost into a sweet, fine topsoil that is free from rocks or stones and is easy to spread. Price is $35/yard. Delivery charges are the same as for our compost.
Hay prices for 2009 are the same as for last year and we’re waiting to see what the current season brings us to decide on future pricing.
As of 2009, hay in the barn is $4.75/bale for first cut; $5.50/bale for second cut (sold out!) and $4.00/bale for mulch. We charge extra for delivery. Please call for availability and delivery prices.
Rebecca-
We do sell bacon and all sorts of other meats (which we haven’t posted yet). We don’t sell hens cause they are too hard for us to slaughter legally, but we do sell pastured eggs, though at this time of year, they are free-ranging but there is no pasture……In any case, you are welcome to stop by. Give us a call beforehand so that we can be around and not on the back 40 somewhere. Cheers!
Yes, we do have feed hay available. First cut only- 4.75/bale for good quality grass hay. We do have stemmier first cut that is available for a little cheaper but we advise it only for those animals that are used to it (i.e. we have some goat and horse customers that love it). If you are interested, please call Jesse at 413-358-1572. Thanks!
