Art at the Barn 2011

The Sweet Seasons Farm invites everyone to the second annual Art at the Barn on May 7th from 10 AM to 4 PM. The Farm is located at 2339 County Road 608, Valley Head, Alabama.

This spring art sale will feature works by regional artist and artisans.
Some of the types of art will include pottery, antiques, handmade jewelry, blown glass, forged metal, paintings, and garden accents. Delicious baked goods along with food vendors will also be offered.

The art show is located on one of Alabama’s oldest and largest sheep farms. Paulette and Richard Manning have taken run-down acres and created 175 acres of beautiful and environmentally friendly farm land.

Grass-fed lamb production is the cornerstone of the farming operation. No grains are fed and no animal is fed in confinement. The goal is to work with nature with no chemicals or herbicides.

These farming techniques produce meats that are healthy, all natural, nutritious, and flavorful. Current research indicates that eating grass-fed meats may reduce your risk of a number of diseases.

As for taste, most people agree that grass-fed is superb. It has a sweeter and milder taste, plus it has no greasy after taste.

In addition to meat productions sales, Sweet Seasons Farms offer commercial breeding stock. The sheep have White Dorper-Katahdin mix of approximate 5/8 to 3/8 percentage.

The Mannings invite everyone to visit the art sale and to view the Farm. If you have questions concerning the sale of meat, please call them at 256-635-6791.
