November 2024 Stillpoint Farm Notes

Farming involves making decisions – lots of them: This seems to be especially true in November. Do we take that steer with the horns? What sheep to breed? How many? When do we shear? Which fields do we fertilize? How do we maximize standing forage for the winter?...

October 2024 Farm Notes

October is a transition month as we welcome Autumn. Cooler temperatures and shorter days typically slow the grass growth. However, this year given that we have finally gotten some rain the grass is putting on a real growth spurt. Hopefully this will allow us to get...

August 2024 Stillpoint Farm Notes

Stillpoint Farm Notes August focuses mostly on harvesting and maintenance. The second cutting of hay has started but will be very light due to lack of rain. We are hoping to get both some round bales and small square bales for sale and for our own use. Hopefully more...

July 2024 Stillpoint Farm Notes

July is usually a bit of a slower month on the farm and very weather dependent. The first cutting of hay is done. Second cutting will start this month – hopefully. It all depends on getting enough rain for the grass to grow and enough dry days in a row to make the...

June 2024 Stillpoint Farm Notes

Stillpoint Farm Notes June is about making hay. The first half of the first cutting is done and, in the barn, (or sold). We actually were able to get 49 round bales done before memorial Day due to a welcome break in the rain. Tom and Chuckie will be waiting on a good...

May 2023 Stillpoint Farm Notes

May kicks off with the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival the first weekend. While we are not taking sheep this year we will still be very involved with taking fleeces, supporting the Leicester Longwool display in the breed barn, and selling beer, fleeces, and hides in...

April 2024 Stillpoint Farm Notes

Final prep and then waiting….. for lambs. The first possible due date is was March 26. And sure enough – first lamb on March 26 so we are off and running. As of this writing (march 30) we have three sets of lambs – a black single, 2 white twins, and lastly a set of...

March 2024 Stillpoint Farm Notes

March is a time of preparation on the farm. Our lambs are due to start arriving April 1 so things get “back – mapped” from there. We start with stripping the sheep barn and getting it set up for the moms. The pregnant ewes have spent most of the winter out with...

November 2024 Brew News

The first freeze has hit, so our growing season is done. But the cold weather beer season has begun!  And boy do we have some tasty ones!  Red Eye Porter, Catoctin Heritage Rye Kölsch, and Local Grainsaw Massacre “Scream Ale” are all flowing. Ray and I are working on a new recipe to brew in the...

October 2024 Brew News

It seriously feels like I *just* wrote the January 2024 brew news, but here we are in October already. What a year it has been.

August 2024 Brew News

Brew News by Brewer Harry Ah, August.  Those dog days of summer… almost too hot to brew!  Almost too hot to type, too. So I’ll keep it short this month.

July 2024 Brew News

Hot and dry?  Yeah, us too. Green Valley Gose is now pouring! 4.5% abv, 10 ibu Milkhouse’s first ever thirst quenching gose is here, just in time for summer.  This is a pale, crisp, tart, and delicious ale brewed with Maryland malted wheat and barley, then fermented using a unique yeast strain of...

June 2024 Brew News

May’s been fun, guys. June’s gonna be a blast. Our Stillpoint Kölsch is back and better than ever as Catoctin Heritage Kölsch. For the first time, we used our new favorite hop, ‘Monocacy’, and the noble characteristics really shine in such a simple and delicious beer.  Crisp, delicious and...

April 2024 Brew News

April.  The month where we all have to finally break out our lawnmowers again (if we haven’t already!).
