YOGURT CONTAINERS

I have had a few people express some concern in regards to opening the yogurt containers. My apologies to those who have had problems. The reason we went to this container a little over a year ago was due to the request of the stores that we sell too. They wanted a sturdier and tamper proof container. We have found that an old fashion bottle opener works. My wife uses a spoon handle if she is having problems. I personally have not had a lot of problems, but I have noticed that the colder the container, the stiffer it becomes and the harder it is to open.

We are always open to suggestions and if you have any special tricks for getting them open or have a container that you think would be better, feel free to let us know.

Thank you for your continued support and take care.

Yogurt Update

Hello Hiday Family Farm Yogurt Fans,
I wanted to let everyone know that now you can get our yogurt at the new Busch's in Canton Michigan. For those of you closer to home it is available at Glei's in Coldwater and Apple Valley in Battle Creek.. Also in BC, Station 66 will be opening soon and I am sure it will be available as soon as they are open.

I also wanted to let you know that this is a low production time of the year for us here on the farm as many of the cows are drying up to get ready to calve soon. This means some of your favorite stores you like to shop at may have limited supplies for a few weeks. By mid May we hope to be back up to full speed.

Thanks

Dan

Hiday Family Farm Yogurt 2017

    Hello to all of our yogurt fans. I want to bring you up to date on places to purchase our yogurt. Over the past few weeks we have added some new stores carrying our yogurt. In Battle Creek we have added Apple Valley Natural Food store on Beckley rd. and in Coldwater it is now available at Glei's on Willowbrook rd. Keep in mind you can still get it through Sprout Urban Farms and Green Gardens Community Farm in Battle Creek and it won't be long before Station 66 reopens for the season.

   In the Ann Arbor area we are at Arbor Farms on Stadium and we are in four Busch's (Dexter, both Ann Arbor stores and Plymouth.) Busch's is opening a new store this spring in Canton and plans have been made to be in that store too as soon as it opens.

Hope all is well with you and yours.

Yogurt Demo

I wanted to let people in the Ann Arbor area know that Holly and I will be at the Busch's in Dexter this Saturday (Nov. 12th) to sample out our yogurt. We would love to meet and thank all of our new customers. This will also be a great time for any of you that would like to ask questions you may have about our farm and farming practices. We are scheduled from around 11 am to 3 pm.. Swing by and say hello if you get a chance.

The other thing I want to let you know is that Station 66 in Battle Creek now has some of our cheese in stock for sale.  Sprout Farm Stand in Battle Creek also has our cheese.

Hope all is well with you and yours.

Cheese

Hello Hiday Farm followers. I wanted to let you know that we now have two flavors of cheese that is made from our milk. The two flavors are Colby and Pepper Jack. This is a raw milk cheese and is aged for 60 days. Currently Green Gardens Community Farm has it for sale at their farm on on H Drive North. The farm store is open on Wed. and Sun.. Check their website for hours. They also take it with them on Saturday to the downtown Kalamazoo farmers market. As we add more places to get our cheese we will post it on the blog and on facebook.
