Farmstead Pantry and Café to open in Crestline

A Stone Hollow Farmstead pantry and cafe is scheduled to open in Crestline by November 1.

The business, located in the former Escape Day Spa space next to Iron Tribe on Dexter Avenue, will sell prepared foods as well as fresh café items made from Stones Hollow Farm goods grown in Harpersville.

The store, owned by Deborah Stone, will initially sell packaged foods such as Stone Hollow Farmstead cheese made from goat milk, butter, prepacked vegetable juices, jams and jellies—all from the farm. Breakfast frittatas, sprouted hummus, jarred marinated tomatoes, soups, fresh fruit parfaits, cornbread and other foods will be prepared at the Cahaba Heights location and available for purchase in Crestline to take home to serve.

Once their restaurant license is approved, it will offer a juice bar, smoothies and milk shakes and food items such as marinated tomato sandwiches, Thai lettuce wraps and a salad of the month. Cheese boards will feature appetizer portions of their dishes of cheese, honey preserves, dessert, fruit patte and, of course, cheese.

The pantry and café will be located at 17 Dexter Avenue. For more information, visit stonehallowfarmstead.com.
