Hello There!

Welcome to Week 2 of the Winter Share!

Snow is falling, the pond is icing over and we are sipping on coffee this cold winter day. This is the perfect weather to throw a roast in the crock pot with some hearty vegetables and let it cook all day, steaming up your kitchen. Read on to find what's in your share bag this week and updates about the farm.

Hams and Holiday Baking Orders
We are taking orders for "Christmas" Hams and baked goods! You name it, cinnamon rolls, pies, gingerbread cookies. Also, gluten free options - chocolate chip, peanut butter, and buckwheat cookies are fabulous allergy sensitive options for this holiday season. Call us or reply to this email to place your order in time for Christmas.
Wholesome, sustainably grown foods.
What's in your bag?
This week you'll find two onions, two pounds of carrots, a sack of potatoes to go along with your pork roast if you wish to do so. You'll also find fresh locally grown lettuce, a pint of frozen blueberries, a quart of yogurt and 4-5 honey crisp apples. Here are a few ideas to use the items in your bag this week - our yogurt is a drinkable yogurt and is great with some blueberries, granola, and honey drizzled over top. Or blend the yogurt into a smoothie with some fruits, honey and maybe even add some greens to boost your health this winter. Check out the "recipes" section for more ideas!
