Have you ever tried freshly caught fish straight from Alaska? Being nearly 3,500 miles away here in Kentucky you might assume that it would be a rare or even unattainable luxury but we are so very fortunate to have an “in” in the form of Citizen Salmon Alaska. Owner Aaron Sechler likes to do things […]
Father’s Day and Father Time
![](https://elmwoodstockfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/IMG_8954-2-1024x700.jpg)
Being farmers we find ourselves talking a lot about Mother Earth and Mother Nature but hand in hand is also Father Time. It’s an old fashioned phrase to be sure but with Father’s Day on the horizon it feels like the right occasion to reflect on a little bit of the history of Elmwood Stock […]
For the Love of Eating Local

Something we get asked quite a bit, especially by folks who are newer to us, is if we ever plan on having farm dinners. Those that have been with us longer will remember that at one time we would host special events, most often for our CSA shareholders, in which we should literally break bread […]

Many folks are surprised to learn that even though our livestock are 100% grass-fed, we do feed hay and wonder how that fits in with our operation. Simply put, hay is made up of the grasses and/or legumes that are cut down from pastures, left to dry and then compacted into what are called bales. […]

Meet Our Partners

Building a sustainable food system is at the heart of the work we do here at our farm but it’s not something we can do alone. That’s why we’re so fortunate to have connected with other food producers, some near and some a bit further afield, who share our mission and have been so generous […]
Strawberries Are Finally in Season!

You may have heard the news – because we’ve been shouting it from the rooftops – but strawberries are here and boy are they plentiful! When we think of spring, we think of strawberries. They’re one of the very first things we started growing here on our farm and we take a lot of pride […]
Why You Should Join Our Summer CSA

Summer is both figuratively and literally one of our sweetest seasons. The days are longer, warmer, and all of our favorites are in full abundance. We feel lucky that we get to share our plentiful summer produce with you in so many ways including at our farm store and the farmers market but the absolute […]
Derby Day Delights
![](https://elmwoodstockfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Depositphotos_193696556_L-1024x682.jpg)
The first Saturday in May holds a very special and time honored tradition for us Kentuckians, though the joke is that it barely even lasts two minutes. We’re talking of course about the Kentucky Derby which, since its start in 1875, has been the place to be and be seen – and we’re referring to […]
Mother Earth and Us
![](https://elmwoodstockfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Berry-Bushes-Bird-1024x683.jpg)
It’s sometimes hard to reconcile that Earth Day is reserved for just one day. For us, we love to celebrate Mother Earth each time we traipse through the fields, while we harvest and plant, rotate our livestock and even during our weekly trips to the farmers market. But being an organic farm, this holiday tends […]
