✨Good evening Tri-Cities! Thank you to everyone who stopped by the farm-stand today 🙏🏼 Thankfully it looks like the weather will finally be nice all-day tomorrow, so we will be OPEN for Labor Day (9/7) from 10AM-6PM.

📍129 Fairridge Rd. Johnson City, TN 37604

🥚We are officially SOLD OUT of farm fresh eggs until next weekend (9/12-9/13). Every dozen purchased goes straight back into our chicken feed fund! Thank you for directly supporting the health & wellness of our fluffy friends 🐓

♻️If you have any extra egg cartons laying around, remember, you can drop those into our egg carton recycling bin 24/7 inside the farm-stand. Thank you for making the earth a little greener and allowing us to provide y’all with the very best farm fresh eggs. 🙌🏻

We will be fully stocked with everything else in the stand tomorrow aside from a few leftovers from today.

👀Looking ahead and a few quick announcement(s):

🍁We asked, and y’all answered! Every fall flavor you voted for in our most recent poll was put out into the farm-stand for this weekend. We consider our farm-stand consumer driven, so we love when y’all take these polls seriously 🙌🏻 Maple won for top fall flavor, followed by a close second of Pumpkin/Pumpkin Spice. This week we’ve provided Maple, Walnut, & Cinnamon granola packets, Nana Burbank’s Pumpkin Bread loaves, homemade pumpkin spice and cinnamon coffee syrups, and a few extra fall goodies like our brand *NEW* Sourdough Sweet Potato & Cardamom sticky buns to satisfy those fall flavor cravings 🤤 Wanting something specific? Let us know by messaging us or leaving a comment below! We love recommendations and to know what y’all would like to see in the farm-stand each week!

⏰Fall hour(s): We will remain open until 6PM each weekend until September 30th. Starting October 1st, the farm stand will be open 10AM-5:30PM.

We will be CLOSED the weekend of September 19th-20th for a private family event!

🍞If you’d like to order for pick-up throughout the week, please send us a message anytime 🙂 We can meet the needs of YOUR schedule and for whatever special accommodations you’d like to make. Just let us know and we’ll do our best to meet your needs!

⚒️Blacksmithing classes are available once again! If you’d like more details on pricing, classes, and/or would like to order a product from our current inventory list, please visit our page at Fairridge Forge
