When faced with escarole, which I’m not overly fond of, I had to become creative. I threw this together, and surprise! I loved it! You can use any greens in the recipe. For an easy entrée, add a little more stock to the mix when cooking and toss it with pasta when done.
Hello Everyone,
I hope you all had a pleasant Thanksgiving and were able to incorporate much of last weeks share in your feast. At this point the fridge is probably full of leftovers, but you will need to make some space for this final share. (more…)
Hello Folks,
We have been blessed with mild temperatures during these final weeks of the season and so will enjoy lots of nice greens right through next week’s final share.
I wanted to give everyone a cooking pumpkin for their holiday baking needs. Unfortunately our harvest of pumpkins was rather meager this season. (more…)
Hi Everyone,
We are in the home stretch of the season. Fortunately the weather is predicted to remain mild for the next couple of weeks, so many of the late crops we have been waiting impatiently to be ready will have a chance to mature. I have finished planting the cover crop and prepared beds for the garlic and shallots. (more…)
Hello Everyone,
We have reached the end of another CSA season. While all years hold their own particular challenges for a farmer this one has been especially difficult. Most of the other farmers that I have had a chance to talk with agree that 2009 was the worst growing season they can remember. (more…)

Hi Folks,
We will be sending out the last few peppers as an extra this week, and this marks the end of the summer crops. The cool weather crops are thriving and look beautiful, although not always growing and maturing as fast as I would like. A case in point is the broccoli, which is big and beautiful, but still heading up slowly and sporadically. (more…)
Hi Folks,
We have gone very quickly from our first frost to our first snowfall, with about a half an inch of heavy wet snow blanketed the farm this past Thursday.
While there was no concern about damage to the remaining crops from the snow by virtue of the temperature, I was a bit worried about damage to some plants, especially the lettuces from the weight of the snow and its potential to break off leaves and branches. (more…)
