Four Chimneys Organic Winery

Took a Seneca Lake NY wine trail tour...hit 11 winery's on a Saturday this fall...rainy at first then it cleared up for a beautiful day...the best was Four Chimneys...

It's an organic winery...
Kingdom White and Kingdom Red are the best wines...and their hats and shirts are cool too... next time we will spend all or half a day here...drinking the tasty wine and walking the grounds...hopefully in spring or summer when there are fewer folks around...
Fall is crazy on the wine trail...


See what I mean...

Circle B Farms Organic Chicken

There is a little sign advertising organic produce, that we pass on the way home from Tricia and Roberto's house.  This time I was not hung over, so we took the turn and found Circle B Certified Organic Farms.  What a find...



...and they have a teepee too.  We met Lynn who raises organic free range chickens, organic apples and pears.  They are in Lyons NY on State Route 14 about 3 miles off 250...east of Webster.  They also have organic strawberries in the spring...that's great because those are hard to find...




...so here is what half an organic free range chicken looks like in the dutch oven, with sweet potatoes and brussel sprouts we picked up at Ontario Orchards in Oswego NY.  Added some coconut oil and water...sea salt and fresh ground pepper.  Yes, it came out great.

Here is a picture of Lynn's organic pears...we will be ordering a bushel next fall to put up some pear sauce...




They have nice looking organic apples too...will be puttin' up some juice, sauce and apple butter this weekend...OK now that's fun stuff...Later...
