There are a couple of weeks in the winter where you get a lot of sprouts. So many sprouts and winter squash, but it's local and good quality and more than made up for in the summer when BERRY SEASON! They also offer a cheese share that is just fantastic, and the grocery offers some major brands of organic food/snacks and non-local products, but the boxes are still Ohio based. You can order pickup at major employers in Columbus, pickup at one of their designated pickup locations, or home delivery. I've actually done all three, but am currently on the delivery schedule, for an extra fee, which is a really nice service. I've had some order issues in the past, but if you email the company same day, they're quick to credit your account and fix any issues.

Yellowbird is a farmbox/csa food option that can make your body happy, your environment healthy, and support local small businesses. You can choose your size of box and frequency, pick it up in one of 12 locations OR have it delivered to your door. The produce boxes have between 5-8 of random seasonal veggies for the mini size. In addition to your mystery produce, you can add from their local stock which includes eggs, tea, honey, dairy, and more. The farm box is a perfect social distancing option, and a great way to learn new foods for adventurous or beginning cooks! They also allow for certain dietary restrictions; you can note that you are gluten free for example.

My favorite was the Amaretto Raspberry Jam. Had it on toast this morning and it is so fresh and flavorful. Everyone who sampled it said, Wow, that's really good! I will be ordering from their site in the future, as I want to gift the other jars I purchased. One being their Savory Brussels Sprout Relish. Now I'm not a real fan of Brussels Sprouts, but this relish (1/4 cup, mixed with 8 oz of cream cheese) makes a too die for dip! All my girlfriends with me bought a jar of this. It would taste good on a cracker, with veggies, or on a burger. You have got to try it!!

When I emailed Julie, the owner, to pick a date and time I didn't realize what my boyfriend and I were in for; we tried to go a few weeks prior, but it's by appt only. He and I essentially got the farm to ourselves-- we each got to walk an alpaca, hold and bottle-feed the babies, hang out with the larger group of alpacas (there are a 100 total here), talk to Julie more in depth (who is so sweet and knowledgeable), and visit the store. We came on a perfectly sunny and warm-ish day, which allowed for the alpacas to be super social. We spent 2 hours at the farm and came home with so many memories of our morning there, along with great photos!

On a lovely, temperate Saturday afternoon my girlfriend and I visited Road Runner Rascals alpaca…read morefarm, having made a reservation a couple of weeks earlier. The cost was $25 per person, and we figured that it would simply involve getting a few photo ops with alpacas, and perhaps getting up close and personal with a few to scratch their furry necks etc. Little did we know that the ranch runner, Julie Judge, was offering up a full experience! Road Runner Rascals has around 100 alpacas overall, and when we arrived we realized that it would truly just be the two of us interacting with the alpacas -- no other groups of people. Julie introduced us to the alpacas, then proceeded to halter a couple of them (named Savoy and Plum Crazy) for us to walk around the pasture. I didn't have "walking an alpaca" on my bingo card for life, and yet that's exactly what we did. The alpacas were very docile, and happily let themselves be led on a long walk through a sprawling, hilly pasture. They make the most adorable noises, and have definite personalities -- we could tell when they wanted to go certain places, and their curiosity was also very obvious. After walking them for at least half an hour, we brought them back to the stable...where Julie was warming up milk for us to bottle-feed a ten-day old alpaca! I don't know why, but the feeling of feeding warm milk out of a pop bottle to a baby alpaca is just something you have to experience for yourself. Afterwards, Julie opened up the back paddock and a veritable herd of alpacas came wandering out, surrounding my parked car, then walking up to us to be petted, some lying down, some rolling around in the grass, and generally just doing what alpacas do. Funnily enough, this wasn't our first alpaca experience, having visited another alpaca farm a few years ago, but what Julie offers at Road Runner Rascals is truly next level. It's also heartening to know that she has donated alpacas to a nearby autism center, and also has some connections with OSU and other local businesses. All told, my girlfriend and I have had a lot of great days this year, but this is easily one of the best. We made a point of buying a few things from the gift shop as well, but the real takeaway is the memorable experience itself, and it's one not to be missed by any animal lover in the region!
