Summer is here and that means vacation for many of our customers. The beautiful thing about vacation is, at its core, vacation is just about “the action of leaving something one previously occupied”. This means, even if you’re not darting off to a lake or beach house or local pool, you can still partake in vacation fun by enjoying rest and relaxation right at home.

The final piece to this puzzle includes those who work right on through the summer. We would hope that even you have a little downtime to enjoy a good home-cooked meal now and then. If so, you can also take a “vacation” from your regular meal routine by embracing summer eats and trying out a few of our favorite real food recipes.

These 4 recipes are just what summer ordered - simplistic, come together in no time, and bursting with flavor. Whether you’re at home or away, who wants to spend hours preparing and cooking when relaxation, fun, friends and family are calling? Skip the fast, unhealthy food that’s so easy to opt for when you’re in “relaxation mode” and give these recipes a whirl instead:

Delmonico Steak with Herbed Butter

Oil Basted NY Strip Steak

Gouda Basil Burger with Artichoke Pesto

Sausage Fondue with Dutch Meadows Links 

You can try out all of these recipes at once, and make shopping super simple by purchasing the Dutch Meadows Griller Box Bundle. It was made with summer and you in mind. Or you could purchase items individually from the store. Either way, enjoy, and let us know how it went!

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.
