This week’s Farm Share influenced Grilled Veggies when our son and granddaughter came over for an impromptu barbecue. Mr. Carnivore and I finally bought a new grill for our wedding anniversary last month. We’ve had several grills in the past, but we have never been satisfied with their performance. It’s probably the reason that we’ve…

I’m most excited about starting the Summer Farm Share in June because it brings Ohio Strawberries. There’s nothing sweeter and it brings back memories of my great-grandparents who farmed strawberries and corn for sale to those who stopped at their roadside stand.

I can’t believe we’ve been living off a farm share for one year and blogging about the experience monthly! Final Winter Farm Share Week 15 results!

I couldn’t think of anything else with a refrigerator full of root vegetables and this week’s share of potatoes, carrots, corn, chopped tomatoes and spinach. They all landed in a big bowl of Vegetables and Beef Soup for…

Pickles Potatoes Pintos sounds like a ditty and sometimes I feel like dancing when we pick up our farm share! First idea for the menu this week from our Vegetarian Pilot share from Fresh Fork Market is a beef rump roast with carrots and potatoes. One look at those lovely small potatoes and the ginormous…
