Raindance Farm Delivery Club

"We have neglected to understand that we cannot be free if our food and its sources are controlled by someone else. The condition of the passive consumer is not a democratic condition. One reason to eat responsibly is to live free." 

-Wendell Berry

 

Club Pages:            Bay Ridge/Sunset Park                    Park Slope

 

SPECIAL NOTICE: Siobhan would like to open community-based delivery sites throughout New York City, particularly in Brooklyn and Manhattan, for Raindance Organic Farm products. Each club will be independent and operated by a volunteer coordinator who arranges deliveries with club members and with Siobhan Griffin (Raindance Organic Farm owner and operator). Each volunteer coordinator receives generous discounts on delicious groceries from the farm, and has the opportunity to promote local food and good nutrition in their community. Please contact Hannah@EarthBodyBalance.com if you are interested in setting up a club in your neighborhood. Siobhan will begin deliveries to your group with a minimum of just $50 in orders!

There is no minimum order amount or additional fees. Even better, all total combined club orders for each location will receive a discount -- over $500 will receive 5% off, $1000 will receive 10% off, etc. -- so TELL YOUR FRIENDS!

For pictures of the farm and descriptions of the products, please visit Siobhan's wonderful farm website: www.RaindanceOrganicFarm.com

A note about organic certification: Siobhan uses organic practices with all her animals and farming methods, and strives to be environmentally conscious and humane in everything she does. Her products are truly top quality, good for the environment, soil health, the well-being of the animals, and the health of the consumers. Certain of her products are labeled CERTIFIED ORGANIC with an accordingly slightly higher price; all products, whether they carry this certification or not, are raised and produced according to her strict standards. Siobhan's local butcher is not certified organic, which means that cows from her organic herd cannot be labeled certified organic if they are processed here; she must travel several hours to reach a certified organic butcher. Please keep this in mind when making your purchasing decisions.

A word about grass-fed meat: Siobhan is working hard to develop a cattle herd that produces a tender meat on a diet of 100% grass. She is phasing out certain breeds that are not as tender and is now focusing her efforts on the Devon breed. For this reason we think that you will be very satisfied with the meats she offers; however, if you need assistance with cooking grass-fed meat for the first time we recommend The Grassfed Gourmet, by Shannon Hayes. Siobhan is now offering all three of Shannon Hayes's books for sale, including The Grassfed Gourmet, The Farmer and the Grill, and Radical Homemakers: Reclaiming Domesticity from a Consumer Culture.
