Welcome to Pumpkin Season at the Creamery!
.
.
I know we're technically still in August, but since the start of school, it only feels right to bring back my favorite part of the Autumn season: PUMPKIN! And this year is even sweeter, as we've searched high and low to find the best-tasting, highest-quality pumpkin sauce and this year it's better than ever. With the cleanest ingredients (pumpkin puree, sugar, spices) and no artificial flavors or dyes, this pumpkin milk is hands-down, our best yet! I've steamed it with coffee, foamed it with chai concentrate and drank it cold out of the bottle and it's seriously so good, anyway you drink it! We'll be offering pumpkin milk though the end of the year, available anywhere you buy our milk!
.
And of course, we wouldn't possibly bring back pumpkin milk without the start of the Autumn gelato flavors. We used pumpkin puree and chai spices (think cinnamon, nutmeg, clove, star anise and ginger) to create a perfectly spiced pumpkin gelato. It tastes like a bite of pumpkin pie with real whipped cream: delicious! We churned a big batch of Spiced Pumpkin gelato just in time for our farm shoppe this Saturday (and every Saturday) 10am until 2pm!
.
The shoppe has had an Autumn overhaul, too, complete with locally raised apples and peaches, pumpkin butter, apple butter and new Autumn scented candles and soaps! It's a beautiful way to end your August, in our fall-filled farm shoppe!
.
Stay tuned for so much more from the farm shoppe this Autumn, including several varieties of locally raised apples, local apple cider and so many fall gelato flavors coming soon! You can find us here, at our little shoppe, every Saturday 10am until 2pm!

Links + finds from the week:
- My car needed a good cleaning. I'd never show before photos because it was really bad, but Dirt Road Auto Detailing in Brockway made it look brand new. Seriously, we're so impressed. If you're local and need a good car clean, Kyle is great!
- We LOVED the Asian flavors in this pot roast: so easy and crockpot friendly, just in time for fall!
- The Elk Rut is just around the corner in Western PA, and if you want to schedule a wagon ride through the Elk Viewing Area, do it soon! They sell out quick!
- We just brought out our favorite fall books! It was always our little dream to create a sense of the nostalgia and classic farm charm of the Berenestain Bears here at our farm. Though we're still waiting and praying about more space and a real, complete farm shoppe/cafe one day, these sweet stories keep us motivated!
- Don't tell Jesse, but I'm going to do this. Tell the kids the answers and have a "who knows Mommy more" trivia session! The husband's reactions are so good!
Happy final Friday of August!
We hope to see you at our farm shoppe this Saturday 10am until 2pm for all things Autumn!
