When the grass is growing things start happening here at Watson Farms. Here’s some things that have happened this week.

Farm Day is Coming!
To see in-person how we manage our animals, make plans to join us for Farm Day!
We will be holding it on Saturday, April 30 from 10am – 2pm. This will be much like the last one we held in October. It was a great success and we hope this one will be the same.
We will be offering hay rides where we will show each group as many of the animals as possible. We love the discussions that break out on these hay rides and it re-assures us that our customers are the most-informed and enlightened people on the planet.
Vendors will be set up as well so that you can stock up on some locally produced arts, crafts, and other unique products. A food truck and coffee truck will also be on site!
We will start highlighting some of the vendors each week. This week we have:
Little Bill’s Concessions – Food Truck
Sweet Southern Java – Coffee Truck
Keep looking for more of our vendors next week!!
Produce Boxes to be Available Soon
Our partnership with Wild Hope Farm continues this year as they prepare and cultivate their fields to provide our customers with superior organic produce that can be delivered to your door right along with anything else that we deliver on our van. (Not available for UPS Shipping at this time.)
Keep an eye on the product page below for availability which we anticipate to be around mid-April.
Help us spread the word!
It’s now easier than ever to Give $15 and Get $15 through our Referral Program. We don’t spend a lot of money of advertising, but rather we focus on producing products that people love and are willing to tell others about. So we depend on word of mouth to find new customers and ultimately to heal more land.
So in an effort to streamline this process we have made it easier to tell others (via email, Facebook, or Twitter) about Watson Farms. And it’s all automated on the backend, so you don’t have to rely on us to issue the store credits manually. Just head over to our Referrals Page and start sharing!
Product Spotlight
We have added two new products to our apparel lineup: A short sleeve T-shirt with the Watson Farms logo and a hat with an different style graphic. Check them out along with the rest of our Merchandise lineup.
For some of our recommended products, check out our Featured Product Page. You might find something that you didn’t even know we had!
We re-use packaging!
We’ve seen a good response to our efforts in re-using packaging! Thanks and keep it up.
You can help us reduce our carbon footprint by returning your CLEAN egg cartons and meat boxes.
The main reason that we switched to plastic egg cartons a while back was because they are so much more durable than paper which could only be used once. They also protect the eggs much better!
So if you have some egg cartons or boxes to return, you can just place them on your porch on your home delivery day. Farm pickup customers can, of course, drop them off when you come to pick up your new order.
***We can only re-use OUR cartons or boxes. Please re-use or recycle other boxes or egg cartons elsewhere.***
We redact your personal information found on your meat boxes when we re-use them, but feel free to redact to redact it yourself without damaging the box if you would like.
Thanks for helping us re-use our packaging!

Check out this ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review:
“Watson Farms provides a great service offering high quality, naturally raised livestock directly to consumers. All their beef, chicken and pork are delicious. Eggs are great too.”
We would greatly appreciate it if you would be kind enough to leave us a review. It helps first-time customers purchase with confidence.
Thanks again for being partners in this endeavor of local, pasture-raised proteins that has truly transformed our farm. We look forward to continuing this transition while serving you long into the future.
Sincerely,
