2026 DEER SEASON
Accepting deer Thursday - Saturday beginning November 19.

10/29/2026

You handle the hunt. We’ll help fill the freezer.

We start accepting deer November 19 at Melvin Hill Meats in Green Creek.

This year we have three harvest packages, including our new Jerky Lover package, plus Build Your Own options. Skinning and gutting are included in all three packages.

🦌 November 19, 2026–January 1, 2027
🦌 Receiving deer Thursday–Saturday, 8 AM–10 PM
🦌 Closed Christmas Day. Open New Year’s Day.

Yes, receiving until 10 PM. Finish your hunt and head our way.

We’ll give your harvest the same care we give our own, with careful trimming and your own deer meat coming back to you.

Follow our page for package details, a look inside the shop, and ideas for putting your harvest on the table. Hunting is optional. Eating well isn’t.

Some things are worth giving another day. Our beef bone broth gets almost two.

Forty-two hours at a low simmer builds that deep, savory flavor. Blanched mirepoix—carrots, celery, and onions/leek—adds depth. Parsley brings a little brightness. And the salt is balanced so you can warm up a mug and enjoy it just as it is.

You can cook with it, too. But you don’t have to give yourself another job before you get something good to eat.

There’s plenty of old kitchen wisdom in a pot of broth. Use the bones. Give it time. Feed somebody.

Today is Senior Day at the Farm Store. Seniors get 5% off, every Tuesday—a small thank-you to the generations who passed that wisdom along.

Come see us and pick up some broth. Soup weather is making its case.

10/15/2026

Steak night doesn’t need a special occasion.

This week’s cut of the week: Flat Iron Steak. A hidden gem tucked away in the chuck.

The chuck might make you think of pot roast, but this particular muscle gives us the second most tender beef steak, behind the tenderloin. And it brings plenty of rich, beefy flavor along with it. And at a fraction of the cost of filet mignon.

Tender AND flavorful. That’s a pretty good place to start supper.

Sear it in a hot skillet, let it rest, and slice across the grain. Spoon a little garlic butter over the top, add roasted potatoes and a pan of sautéed greens, and call everybody to the table.

Ask us about flat iron steaks at the Melvin Hill farm store. It’s a cut worth getting to know.

Have you tried one yet?

Seniors get 5% off at the Farm Store today. And every Tuesday.

A handwritten recipe can be a little short on details.

“A pinch.” “Until it looks right.”

Very helpful. Especially if you’ve never seen what “right” looks like.

That’s why cooking alongside someone matters. You get the recipe, but you also get the part they forgot to write down.

Senior Day is one small way we want to honor the generations who passed that know-how along.

Come see us. And if someone taught you a kitchen trick you still use, tell us about it.

10/06/2026

Starting today, Tuesdays are Senior Days at the Farm Store. Seniors get 5% off.

A lot of what we care about here was passed down. Raising food. Cooking a meal. Feeding the people around your table.

The generations before us put in a lot of work. And they still have plenty to teach us.

Five percent is a small thank-you. But it’s one way we want to honor them, every Tuesday.

Come see us at Melvin Hill Meats. And if you have a good pot roast recipe, I’m listening.
