This was a wintertime visit at Marini Farm for their annual Tree Jubilee, benefiting the Ipswich…read moreHumane Group. There were some trees in their market, especially one particularly cool looking Heat Miser, but inquiring got me through the double doors by their refrigerated case to the greenhouse type structure out back where a multitude of trees and wreathes sat to be admired and won. Admission was free. Tickets were to be purchased for a chance at your pick of the lot. After my visit, I took another shopping eye look through the market and left with a box of 4 fat muffins and a chilled soup - butternut squash and apple - yum!

You can see the manufacturing facility through a large windoe right behind the display case. Their red pepper scamorza is my new favorite cheese on the planet. I have to buy twice as much as I want because I eat half on my way home. I have a similar problem with the ricotta. Before it makes it to the mannicotti or lasagna it was intended for it will be devoured with crackers. Nevermind the fantastic caprese salads during the summer with the mozzarella. Even the crackers they sell are imported from Italy and are top notch.

Wolf Meadow Farm is unbelievable: a stunning transplant of a one-room caseificio from the Apennines…read moreof Italy to the New England town of Amesbury. Here Luca, Christina, and Hakim create artisanal cheeses that embody Carlo Petrini's Slow Food movement: food should be good, clean, and fair. There is an exuberance to their art. They know that their cheese-making improves the cows and environment, that their cheese protects and deepens the "cultura del formaggio", and that their products WILL amaze you by their deliciousness! I highly recommend the cheese-making classes as well. I'd pay just to hear Luca's commentary on life, much less to learn how to make cheese from him! Even after studying food in Italy, I've never come across anyone so passionate about dairy. You'll love the teaching on how cheese is made, the process of making it yourself, the wine, bread, and cheese provided to the students, and the block you get to take home. If you live in New England, come visit Wolf Meadow Farm!

Wonderful spot on the North Shore to go Apple picking! Great…read moreapple selection and staff were super helpful about what varieties were still well stocked, what apples are best for baking, flavor profiles, and more. To get to the orchard for apple picking, you can either take a hay ride (for a fee of a few dollars) or walk (roughly 10 minute walk on well marked trail). Don't skip the Apple cider donuts! There is a food trailer outside where you can get them made fresh! Inside the farm store, you can get locally sourced items, baked goods, wine flights, and ice cream! There is a seating area connected to the farm store or you can grab a picnic table or bench on the lawn.

It also has a wine bar and a section to buy knick-knacks, tshirts and hoodies. I would say it's most known for their apple picking but they offer other picking options depending on the season. I went here yesterday and it's not quite apple picking season, but you could pick your own flowers or berries. It's also so fun coming here in the fall when they have a whole pumpkin patch of available pumpkins out on display. So pretty. I love walking around the country store. I grew up with my family coming here just about every summer or fall, and we still make a visit at least once a year. Not much has changed because it doesn't need to.

They have this practice of hyping items on their website then after you drive ten miles to get it, you find out "it was too windy for the fishermen to go out" or whatever. Then you are compelled to purchase something else because you made the drive. If they can't get an item listed on thier weekly online menu, they should take it off! Total "Bait and Switch" move. It's 2026 and they don't even have a phone you can call them on to see if they have the item. " too busy to answer a phone" Hire someone then! They have pulled this bait and switch on me several times, no more. I'm done. Cherry St. Fish Market is much better.
