Shanks to Trout & Caviar

Local Blogger, Brett Laidlaw, produces a consistently outstanding food and cooking blog!

I've recommended the Trout & Caviar Blog to you in the past. This food and cooking blog, produced by Brett Laidlaw, provides lots of inspiration for folks who want to cook local, healthfully and not lose anything of the delight that comes with dining.

Most recently, Laidlaw wrote about cooking lamb shanks for a paschal dinner. We're proud that the shanks were a product of Sheepy Hollow at Native Oaks Farm, my wife's wonderful operation that's just down the hill in the hollow. [See the Trout & Caviar Blog about the lamb shanks.] Brett recently shared with a friend a whole butchered lamb from Sheepy Hollow. We're thrilled to have him as a customer.

And now a new restaurant features lamb from Sheepy Hollow
Terra Waconia, a new restaurant about 14 miles south of our farm, is featuring Sheepy Hollow shanks this weekend and we hope to do additional business with them in the future. Look for the dining spot at 140 Main Street in Waconia (952-442-3353).
