Celebrate the Dog Days of Summer with Us!

For astronomers, the Dog Days of Summer mean July 3rd through August 11th, which is roughly three weeks before and after the alignment of Sirius (the dog star) and the sun. For the rest of us, the Dog Days of Summer just means late summer… high temps, longer shadows, the tail end of the busiest growing season, vacations, back-to-school shopping… and shopping with your dog at the Hereford Farm Market! ๐Ÿ˜‰

To celebrate the waning days of summer and the dogs of Hereford Farm Market, we’re offering a few dog-themed goodies tomorrow. I made homemade dog treats with our honey, Mandi made a bunch of cute dog kerchiefs, and my daughter, Haley, is going to take FREE pictures of your dog! Details below.


Homemade Honey & Peanut Butter Dog Treats

My dog biscuits are made with a handful of mostly organic ingredients, and two of them are things you can buy at the Hereford Farm Market: Windtree Bee honey and Oak Spring Farm eggs.

Canine Kerchiefs & Other Pet-themed Awesomeness

Grab a Dog Lover’s Coffee Cozy for you and a Canine Kerchief for your four-footed BFF!

Free Fido Photos!

My daughter, Haley, will be at the “Hats & Honey” table tomorrow to take pictures of all of the gorgeous and amazing DOGS OF HEREFORD FARM MARKET!! If you want her to take a picture of your dog, or a picture of you and your dog, then just come to our table. It’s free. No purchase necessary — although of course we’d love it if you bought some honey, biscuits, or kerchiefs — but it’s not required.

Please bring:

  1. Only dogs that are well behaved and play nicely with others.
  2. A leash for your dog.
  3. A bag to clean up any accidents.
  4. A sense of humor and adventure. We’re hoping everyone, both humans and dogs, has a good time!

We’ll share the photos here, on this website, by August 27th. Then you can copy the photos and share them, print them, or use them however you’d like!

Haley took this pic of her younger sister and our dog, Tugg.

More about the photographer

Haley has been taking pictures and video since 2016. Past projects include modeling shoots for Rosie Posie Design Co., sports clips & senior photos for Hereford High students, the HHS Class of 2020 senior video, a virtual interview with Matt Berrie, ESPN SportsCenter host, a tango video for Pride Month filmed at the Argentine Embassy in D.C., and nowโ€ฆ the 2021 Dogs of Hereford Farm Market photo shoot!!

Haley likes to take pictures of people and things that move โ€“ action shots rather than landscape, nature, or architectural photos. Sheโ€™s looking forward to meeting you and your dogs tomorrow!


Weโ€™ll be at the Hereford Farm Market, 17004 York Road, in Parkton, Maryland, from 9:00 a.m. until noon tomorrow. Look for us at the โ€œHats & Honeyโ€ table beside The Contented Rooster.
