Store progress...
I need some help moving stuff over to new store and cleaning our host location after we move out. If you can help please let me know. I'll start moving things out on 2/27. I'll work around your schedule. You can email me at nora@livingwellga.com
Also, I won't be bringing the 2 black fridges that are currently at our host location. They'd make a great storage fridge/freezer for garage or basement. If anyone wants them just let me know.
New Farm! Aguilar Acres
Please welcome Alfonso and Nikki Aguilar of Aguilar Acres to our family of growers and producers!! Aguilar Acres is a veteran-owned and operated in Homer, GA. They are a small family farm focused on producing the highest quality food for their family and our community.
They practice low-stress animal handling techniques and pasture rotation to keep our livestock thriving and happy. They raise purebred Katahdin hair lamb. They produce a milder flavor(Less gamey) meat than wool-producing lamb. Their lamb is 100% grass-fed from start to finish and never fed any grain.
They currently have chops, stew meat, ground lamb, shanks, leg of lamb, and spare ribs available. You can order their products on the website either under Meat section - Lamb or on their Co-op Vendor Store at https://www.livingwellga.com/store/aguilar-acres-llc/
We're excited to have more pasture-raised lamb back on the market!!
