8 hands farm logoCarol Festa and her husband, Tom Geppel began their livestock farming journey in 2010, raising Icelandic Sheep. They chose sheep since they are “multi-purpose” creatures that can be used for their meat, milk, and wool. After purchasing their current 28-acre property on Cox Lane in Cutchogue, Carol and Tom were able to expand their “flock” to include Tamworth Pigs, heritage breed chickens and vegetables too! They began selling their products to local restaurants, before constructing an on-site farm store, which now sells everything from meat, wool, vegetables, prepared foods and artisanal products from other local producers. In 2016, Carol and Tom unveiled a new butcher shop within the farm store that will carry a rotating selection of fresh, farm-raised meats. The food truck, which serves breakfast and lunch, was recently added in 2017…more
