The holidays should revolve around the experiences you have with the ones you love, but that doesn’t mean the “extra stuff", like nourishing food and drink on the table, must be forgotten. In fact, it’s a wonderful time of year to go above and beyond with cuisine, especially when the results are down right delicious and not necessarily dependent upon the amount of time put in. When you start with real, wholesome products and ingredients, the rest takes care of itself.

Snacks and Cheese, Please!

Consider adding a Cheddar Bundle to your cart this holiday season. It comes packed with 3 -1lb pieces of our all time favorite cheddar cheese variety. Includes Mild, Sharp, Hot, and/or Applewood Smoked and Garlic-n-Chives. This cheddar cheese pairs perfectly with a crunchy whole-grain bite as well as fruit, and the cheese can last for up to 1 year so consider getting a few extra as gifts.

Make Meat a Special Treat

It’s the holidays. Make your main dish a special treat by preparing something that delights above and beyond typical expectations. The satisfaction is irreplaceable that your loved ones and you will feel upon biting into juicy Filet Mignon, tender Short Ribs, savory Rib-eye Roast (bone in), or melt-in-your-mouth Salmon.

Rich & Creamy Homemade Desserts

Dessert is a gift that we don’t treat ourselves to very often. When you do, it's extra rewarding if you do it right, using nutritious, organic and unprocessed ingredients. Our Raw Milk, Yogurt, Butter and Cream, and Eggs, are the perfect foundations for a multitude of classic desserts like cheesecake, mousse, pudding, cakes and even a classic cup of hot chocolate.

A Classic Breakfast

With dinner often stealing the attention around the holidays, it’s easy to forget about a hearty breakfast. Classic staples are classic for a reason - they offer a delicious and balanced start to your day. Consider bringing the family together in the morning for Eggs, Bacon, and Toast. Maybe you’ll go the extra mile and add Pancakes with Syrup, too?

Whatever the time of year, I think we can all agree that health and happiness should always be on the menu. 

Happy holidays from your Dutch Meadows family!

Order Deadlines

Hello, due to a recent increase in requests, we feel it is necessary to point out that we cannot accommodate any late orders or order edits after the deadline at 10 AM ET on your specified day. (Please see chart below). Please refrain from submitting requests beyond this time, as we are unable to process them. To ensure a smooth experience, we strongly encourage placing your order the day before the deadline, or even a couple of days in advance. We experience a high volume of calls just before the order deadline, and we cannot guarantee that all calls or phone orders will be handled in the final hours leading up to the cutoff. Submitting your order before the deadline day helps avoid any last-minute delays that could prevent your order from being processed in time.  Remember, we are not a warehouse full of oversupply product that has been sitting around and ready to ship at a moment's notice. As small farmers, we require sufficient time to prepare your orders. This includes bottling milk, sorting eggs, retrieving meats from inventory, harvesting fresh vegetables, and coordinating with various vendors and farmers to ensure that fresh products are available. You are our valued customer and our goal is to bring you fresh, quality, REAL foods while streamlining the whole process from soil and farm > to process > to pack > to your table! Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any further questions or need clarification on our ordering process. Thank you for your understanding.
