As you may know (if you read the sparse postings on this blog lately) I’m looking at taking some big steps trying to expand both the size and marketing of the farm. So many of you were very supportive and threw out a lot of ideas on how to expand and raise a little capital going forward for the expansion, and I’m making my way through those e-mails now! One suggestion (and something I’ve wanted to do for awhile) was some Crooked Gap Farm t-shirts. This is a way for our customers (thank you all so much!!!) to show their Crooked Gap pride and for those of you who aren’t close enough to be a customer it is an opportunity to support the farm … and add a cool t-shirt to your wardrobe if I do say so myself š
Right now there will be two t-shirt options available. The first choice is the “Pioneer Farming” t-shirt. This shirt is “smoke” in color and has the phrase “Pioneer Farming” on the front with the pronunciation and a definition stating :: “See Crooked Gap Farm”. “Pioneer Farming” is a fun little phrase that I started to use when describing the farm because of the way this farm was started from scratch … plus it’s a good conversation starter.
The second shirt available is the Crooked Gap Farm “Where a Pig is a Pig” shirt. This t-shirt comes in a color called “Caribbean Blue” and has the state of Iowa with the farm location along with the phrase “Where a Pig is a Pig”. This fun shirt states the plain fact … on this farm a pig is allowed to be a pig in the pasture, in the mud, and all around!
Both shirts will cost $20 each plus shipping and handling. I will be ordering them soon and keeping them “in stock” as it were, but I would love to have an idea of interest and a general amount of sizes I should order. If you would like to place an order just send me an
e-mail with the shirt(s) you would like and the sizes.
**FYI :: The dotted lines are not part of the shirt, just part of the design site … And, you can click on the pictures for a larger image of the design.**
I love it! I have farm shirt envy now.
Ben says that he “just wants a shirt with Ethan Book’s face on it” hahahaha
Good job ! We too have farm t-shirts and your blog reminded me to blog about ours. We ordered them for our farm store which opens in three days but as soon as folks found out about them they were buying them from me before we even got them out of the box. ! Folks love t-shirts. Be sure to get kids sizes too.
