I was so surprised by our Lettuce Bouquet in this week’s farm share. It feels like spring! We received two beautiful leaf lettuces that still had their roots. That’s what I call fresh picked. I loved that and hope it happens again because next time I’m going to plant them. More great fun was the…

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…

It’s a Root Vegetable Paradise in Winter Farm Share Week 5 Vegetarian Pilot from Fresh Fork Market. Lots of goodies perfect for soups and casseroles to come.

This is Brussels Sprouts Bliss week. I had no idea I would ever say that in my lifetime! Winter Farm Share Week 4 (Vegetarian Pilot) from Fresh Fork Market had several standouts and some of them weren’t so obvious until the cleaning and sorting was done. That’s when I realized the size and volume of…
