The Tin Top estate, now called Carney Farms, has been a working farm since 1851, and has seen its fair share of history. Originally 2,000 acres, the property has contributed to the development of multiple churches and homes over the years. Today, Carney Farms includes 45 acres and the original home with a tin roof, for which the farm’s road is named after.
Similar to Colonial Williamsburg, Mount Vernon, and Monticello, at Carney Farms, we strive to keep the history alive on our property. With that goal, you will find Gloucestershire Old Spot pigs, Dexter cattle, and St. Croix sheep on our property. All three breeds are historical heritage breeds, at various endangerment status with the Livestock Conservancy. And through our conservation efforts, we are able to sell breeding stock nationally, and sell pork, beef, and lamb locally.

Sausage comes in many forms — ground sausage, sausage links, sausage patties, and chorizo — each offering its own unique flavor and texture. All varieties are crafted from high-quality, farm-fresh pork and seasoned with a variety of spices, from garlic and sage to paprika and cayenne pepper. Sausage can be used in a wide range of dishes, from classic breakfast scrambles to hearty stews, savory pasta dishes, or tacos.
Sausage has been enjoyed in both European and American cuisines for centuries, with unique seasoning blends depending on the region.
Chorizo is a standout, known for its smoky, spicy flavor thanks to paprika and chili powder.
The versatility of sausage makes it suitable for all meals of the day—from breakfast to dinner.
Protein: Sausage is an excellent source of protein, supporting muscle growth and repair.
B Vitamins: Rich in B6 and B12, which are vital for energy production and maintaining a healthy nervous system.
Iron & Zinc: Contains iron, which supports red blood cell formation, and zinc, which helps with immune function.
Grilling & Pan-Frying: Whether you're cooking links or patties, cook on medium heat for an even cook and juicy results. Don't press sausages while cooking to retain moisture.
Crumbled Sausage: Ground sausage is great for adding texture and flavor to soups, casseroles, or pasta dishes.
Seasoning Variations: Customize flavors by adding extra spices or herbs, such as oregano or thyme, to suit your dish.
Sausage links and patties: Cook to an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
Chorizo: If fresh, it should also reach 160°F (71°C); cooked chorizo can be enjoyed as is.
