Weekly Newsletter
December 12th, 2017
Serving Berkshire County Since 2008
 Greetings!
This week the Locavore Basket, which features produce grown within a fifty mile radius, changes to the East Coast Basket, which includes produce grown along the East Coast of the USA.

Our mission is to always source as close to home as possible.

We could still offer a Locavore Basket, however, we realize most families want variety and sourcing a few items each week from the Southern states creates a more well-rounded basket. Plus, don't forget you can change as many items in the basket as needed.

Organic Citrus Now Available!
Stay healthy with the best source of Vitamin C!

  • Valencia Oranges
  • Cara Cara Oranges
  • Meyer Lemons

  • Clementines

2016 Viña Maitia Valle del Maule Carignan Weon
Central Valley, Chile
SALE PRICE $14.39
Grape Varietal: 100% Carignan
 
Designation: Dry farmed and sustainable
 
Notes: This 100% un-oaked Carignan is hand harvested from a 60+ year old vineyard in the Maule region of Chile. The nose is bursting with notes of cherry, plum, rose petal, cinnamon, lavender and anise that lead to a bright palate of cassis and milk chocolate. The finish shows lush tannin of crushed, dried leaves with a well integrated acid backbone that is all tied together by cherry and white pepper spice.
 
Drink if you enjoy: Light to medium bodied red wines with bright fruit and some spice! A very quaffable wine that is an incredible value!

2013 Belle Pente
Pinot Gris
Willamette Valley, Oregon
SALE PRICE $17.99
Grape Varietal: 100% Pinot Gris
 
Designation: Biodynamic and Organic
 
Notes: The hybrid vinification, coupled with sur lie and bottle aging, creates a wine that has both richness and freshness. It is easy to enjoy on it's own, and there is not a dish on the planet that it won't compliment splendidly. It's a rich, well-rounded wine with pear, melon, and honey flavors.
 
Drink if you enjoy: Beautifully made domestic white wines produced with great integrity and respect for the grape as well as the environment!

Flower Child
IPA
Cambridge Brewing Company, MA
SALE PRICE $11.87
6.5% ABV. 6-pack, 12oz cans
Classic American IPA. Extensively hopped and dryhopped with a big roster of hops – Simcoe, Centennial, Cascade, Ahtanum, Chinook, and Amarillo – it’s big, bright, and floral, with just enough malt to balance. This American-style I.P.A. stands head and shoulders above its hoppy brethren, blending pale and honey malts to balance the palate without interfering in your herbal reverie, and creating a new American classic.
10% OFF
Remain In The Light Pilsner
Cambridge Brewing Company, MA
SALE PRICE $9.80
5.0% ABV. 6-pack, 12oz cans
 
Craft Brewed Hoppy Pilsner. American light lagers and Pilsners are easy to drink and refreshing. They are not, however, easy for a craft brewer to make – but we are always up for a challenge. Pilsner malt and flaked rice provide sweet cereal grain notes while German and Czech hops add spiciness and a balanced bitterness to the finish. Cold fermented and aged with a German lager yeast, the palate is clean with a snappy finish.
10% OFF

Hard cider, 5.2% ABV
 
Made from 100% locally sourced apples, never from concentrate, the Unified Press is Citizen Cider’s flagship cider that keeps you wondering where it’s been your whole life. This naturally gluten-free cider is an off-dry, crisp, clean and refreshing cider that keeps you coming back.

Recipes

This soup is so quick and easy because there aren’t many vegetables to chop (just garlic and onion—that’s it!) and it relies mostly on pantry staples.
You can quickly chop and roast whatever vegetables you have on hand at 400 degrees for 30 minutes to make a warm satisfying salad.

This healthy casserole is easy to make and tastes amazing!

The temperatures are shifting and increased flurry of activity (and stress!) means you need extra strength to fortify your system and keep sick bugs at bay.


Thank you so much for your loyal support and contributions to this family owned Berkshires business, and our local farms and food artisans.
