Our The Sacred Turtle Boutique’s farm shop offers a fresh, local, and thoughtfully curated selection of food and pantry staples that reflect the land around it. Shoppers can find farm-fresh produce, eggs, pickles, preserves, local dairy products, and the boutique’s own hand-blended organic teas and spices, along with fresh greens, sprouts, and seasonal produce grown right on the farm next door. The farm shop also carries locally sourced grocery items like milk, cheese, yogurt, maple syrup, honey, jams, jellies, pickles, mustards, chutneys, and specialty sauces.
