Good Afternoon
This week's bag really says "FALL". This week is one of our Open to the Public Weeks - A chance to celebrate the changing of the seasons without a full season commitment. This week's bag celebrates the first sweet potatoes, Stanley plums, and pasture raised chicken.
We are also announcing our WINTER SEASON. I know...the dreaded "w" word, but in Fresh Fork world, we plan for the various seasons months in advance. We hope you will join us for another season of local foods, because yes, you can still eat local in the winter when it's bitter cold out with snow on the ground! More details about Winter Season below and HERE.
We also have some $$ Saving bundles available. With fun offerings like a one time Fall Is Here weekly share, Fall Decor pack, Pizza Bag, Apple Snack Packs and more!
In this week's Newsletter:
- ONE TIME Share -- Sweet Potatoes, Acorn Squash, Plums, Chicken Breast and more.
-
Apple Pie with Crumb Topping- A fall classic
-
Apple Sampler Bags - This week, however, we are putting together two sample bags that allow you to get 2 apples each of 4 distinct varieties.
-
Bundles. Stock up & save with a generous poultry bundle, breakfast meats, and a few other fun meal kits.
-
Fall Flavors. Pumpkin Sorghum and Spice Cookies. Apple Cinnamon Bread. And apple variety bags and apple cider.
With our Open to the Public week, all orders must be paid online and placed before Tuesday, September 16 at midnight. Pickup your order this week, Wed Sept 17 thru Sat, Sept 20, at any of our summer locations. Select your location at checkout.
Thanks, and cheers to another tasty week!

APPLE SAMPLER
We've been working with a few different orchards and have some fun varieties in this week.
Each sampler includes 2 of each apple (8 apples total for $8.45)
APPLE SAMPLER #1:
Honeycrisp, Golden Supreme, Jonathan, Ruby Mac
APPLE SAMPLER #2:
Zestar, Gala, Cortland, and 2 Bartlett Pears
Sampler # 1 draws attention to modern favorites like Honeycrisp and heirloom classics like the Macintosh (Ruby Mac is a specific type of macintosh).
Sampler #2 features the sweet-tart flavors of zestar and cortland with the good eating qualities of Gala. This sampler bag is equally as good for snacking as baking a pie or a crisp. The pears are there..well, why not.

From our Farm Bakery
Sweet goodies you can't live without.
Dutch Apple Pie - gooey apple filling, lightly spiced, and topped with a crunchy and sweet oat based crumb topping.
Apple Cinnamon Bread - We start with an "enriched" dough - a brioche style of soft red pastry flour, eggs, and milk - and fold in fresh apples and a swirl of cinnamon. Topped with a streusel topping.
Pumpkin Sorghum and Spice Cookies - Soft and lightly spiced and made with real roasted pumpkin. We spent today roasting pumpkins, then tomorrow we'll make our dough using my favorite ingredient - sorghum. Sorghum is a rich, malty, and slightly sweet form of molasses. Instead of using sugar cane though, it is made from the stalk of sorghum - a grain crop similar to corn. It adds a depth of flavor and an earthy note.
| | Winter Season Registration | | |
Fresh Fork in the winter isn't all kale and turnips; it's a chance for us to show off how we have been planning ahead all year.
Our winter program is a bigger bag, and after Thanksgiving it is every-other-week. The season starts out with cold hardy crops, transitions to more meat and storage crops, and ends with more prepared items. We have fun over the winter with projects like our farm-made quiches, pepperoni rolls, ratatouille, soups and more.
Here are the winter highlights:
-
Omnivore, Vegetarian, and Carnivore Options available (vegetarian very limited)
- Limited spots for Vegetarian Shares
- Carnivore share is the meat lovers pack. Our version of buying 'freezer meat'. More details HERE.
- One Size Package - more similar to the summer large
- When the schedule moves to every-other-week and the products are less perishable, this is like 1 large share to eat over 2 weeks of time and more manageable.
- Schedule - Starts Nov 5, first 3 weeks in a row, skips Thanksgiving week, then every other week until May 9. Full list of pick up dates HERE.
- Same vacation policy and guarantee. 4 weeks can be put on hold and cancel at anytime.
- Flexible re-occurring billing available with credit card on file
- 13 area pickup locations, Wednesday thru Saturday
For full details on the winter program and samples of past bags, please visit this page: Winter Season Overview.
We hope to see you out there this winter!
**Your Summer Season does not automatically roll into Winter Season, so you will need to add the Winter Season to your account. Or, just reply to this email and state "I'm In" + the package option, payment plan and pick up location you want for winter and we'll take care of it for you!
