Good Afternoon Trevor-


We had a good first week of the season. I hope everyone enjoyed their bag and the whole chicken!


This week looks to be the peak for strawberries. If the rain holds off, we should be OK. Some more heat would help, but the cool breeze and sunshine today should help keep the berries from getting too ripe.


This week is a big week. See below for all of our specials, including:


  • Strawberries - the harvest looks to be good this week. If you want to freeze or can any, now is the time. Check online to pre-order.
  • Father's Day Sales - Mother's Day always gets brunch but why not Father's Day? This week we put together a biscuits and gravy special for Father's Day, custom Beer Brats, and Steak Burger Bundle.
  • Shortcake or Shortbread? - we had to test it out and this week we settled on a special shortcake you can use for homemade strawberry shortcake dessert
  • Pork Chop Promo - this week's bag protein on promo
  • Strawberry Rhubarb Pie - sold out fast last week. We are making more this week to try to reach around.
  • Late Signups. We had quite a few folks show up at the back of the truck last week who forgot to signup. That's fine and we expect it. We have 50 extra shares this week for those who still want to get in.


Enjoy.

Trevor

Father's Day Promotions

Steak Burger Bundle -- $32


Just in time for Father's Day, our steak burger bundle includes our hearty steak burgers, 1/3 # each formed from the trimmings of tenderloin, strip loin, and ribeye.


For a bun, we encourage you to toast up an English Muffin. They do hold their weight in butter. :) Serve it up with some real homemade mayo and all the fixings.


Includes:

Steak Burgers (4 patties, ~1.25#)

English Muffins (use as burger buns, 4 pack)

Mayo - 8 oz

Sliced Cheddar Cheese - 4 slices

Lettuce - 1 head

Mushrooms, 5 oz

Tomato, Soil Grown Greenhouse - 1 ct

Father's Day Brunch Bundle - Biscuits & Sausage Gravy - $32


We had fun in the kitchen this morning. Homemade buttermilk biscuits made with house made cultured buttermilk, lard, butter, and organic local pastry flour. These biscuits are huge. 4 of them nearly cover a 10 inch dinner plate.


For gravy we kept it simple and started with a homemade pork sausage, whole milk, and spices.


Hot sauce. Fermented, smoked jalapenos and cider vinegar.


Bacon and Eggs of course. Brunch served.


Includes:

6 homemade buttermilk biscuits

Sausage Gravy (1 quart)

Hot Sauce (1 bottle)

Bacon (1#)

Eggs (1 doz)

Beer Brats - $11.25


We worked up some special smoked beer brats for Father's Day Weekend, starting with Krispi IPA from our friends at Market Garden Brewery.


Each 50# batch has nearly 20 beers in it. We left a few for the sausage makers....


These juicy brats are in a natural hog casing and smoked to a tender finish. Cook the over indirect heat on the grill for a good snap to the casing.

Sweet Treats

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie


Our signature homemade pies are back. It's "pie season" as we say. Fresh fruit is in and let's enjoy it!


We start with macerating our berries in a little organic sugar. The berry "liquor" that drains off is reduced and added back to the fresh berries and rhubarb to make a rich filling.


We bake it in our house made crust of organic whole wheat flour, butter, and lard. It's flaky and flavorful. The pie is topped with a crunchy and sweet crumb topping of oats, butter, and organic sugar.


Shortcakes - $5


A lightly seasoned 6" cake to be enjoyed as is, or top with strawberries & cream.


We had a great debate last week in our kitchen. Is it strawberry shortcake or short bread? We tried both and decided that a slightly sweeter cake option worked better with fresh berries and whipped cream.


Turn this cake out of the tin and enjoy.

EXTRA STRAWBERRIES


Our growers are at peak production and this is the week to put up strawberries if you want to.


$7.00 per quart

2 quart for $13

8 quart "flat" for $50

Enough Servings for the Family

We try to make our bags a good value and applicable to everyone. Some bags are too small for some families and the same bag is too big for others. Often, when we give a meat in the share, it may not be enough for your family. You may need double the meat, but don't need double kale and lettuce.


So we are going to try this out. Each week, we'll try to add the feature protein at a discount on the website. This is a chance to go from 2 pork chops to 4 at a savings.


Bone In Pork Chops - $1 off per lb

The bone in pork chop will always come from the rib section of the hog - similar to a ribeye steak on beef. It is the best marbled part of the loin and usually has some nice belly meat on the end of the bone.


The bone in chop is the juiciest pork chop and great for the grill.


These chops are bone in but not "frenched." The photo above is how we cut them at OCP. The packer who cuts for FFM says no way he's doing that bone scraping!
