News and blog
Dear Folks,
This week's shares will include:
Gold Rush apples
Brussels sprouts
Swiss chard
apple cider
butternut squash
winter squash
We love Brussels sprouts sautéed in a pan with garlic and olive oil. The flavor is amazing. yesterday I did some with chicken and Swiss chard. It was a great hit! The Gold rush apples are one of the last to be picked for the year. So they are good keeping apples. Also all the winter squash and butternut squash will keep for several weeks. So do not feel that you must rush to eat them.
Thanksgiving will be just around the corner. If you are looking for a Thanksgiving turkey, please; consider us. The price is $3.99/lb. You can order it on the online store or at any of the markets. We do not have any turkeys under 14 pounds left. So consider a big one for left overs and soup.
Check out he online store for any additional items that you can add to your CSA share. you will be supporting a local farm and eating good food.
See everyone this week!

This week's shares will include:
Fuji apples
turnips
spaghetti squash
kale
white potatoes
winter squash
Fuji are a great sweet apple.
Mixing turnips with potatoes to cook or bake gives a great flavor. I just made some spaghetti squash with garlic, oregano, olive oil, salt and pepper. it was delicious and so easy to make. The winter squash will keep for weeks so do not feel that you need to be in a hurry to use them.
Do remember that if you have any pint or jelly jars sitting around at home please bring them back or put them in your boxes. We like to reuse instead of recycle.
If you are looking for great home grown fresh turkey for Thanks giving check out our store or talk to one of us at the stands this week. We have about 30 turkeys left to sell. you can order on line for delivery at DOT November 10, 17
Columbia November 12,19
