The Lexington Farmers' Market  

February 29, 2012 

No matter what the calendar says it looks like spring has arrived in a big, rainy way.  Our farmers are busy getting seedlings transplanted so that come April and May the market will be full of delicate spring lettuces and greens, green onions and garlic, fresh herbs and much more.  While my mouth is watering just thinking about grilled asparagus and fresh strawberries, I also can't wait for market this coming weekend.  Our winter market is filled with local, fresh produce, sustainably raised meats, freshly baked breads, canned jams, jellies, salsas, relishes and marinara, hot tea and scones with raw, local honey to eat while you shop or take home for next week's breakfast.

   

It's easy to let eating local slip through the cracks during the winter months but important to remember that no matter what time of year it is, the members of the Lexington Farmers' Market bring the best food items to market and they hope you will join them at their table at the market so that you may enjoy them at your table at home. Spread this message to your friends and family so they, too, can join in the local food fun.

Miso Sesame Winter Squash

  

  • 2 pounds delicata squash (~3), halved, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch inch thick pieces
  • 2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons molasses
  • 1 teaspoon tamari or shoyu
  • 2 tablespoons pure maple syrup
  • 1 heaping tablespoon white or yellow miso
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
  • 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon grated lemon zest
  • 5 tablespoons water
  • 8 ounces organic extra-firm tofu, pressed, cut into 1/2-inch cubes

  • Various toppings: toasted sesame seeds, chopped arugula, basil, basil flowers, lemon wedges

      

  1. Preheat the oven to 425F / 220C, with a rack in the middle.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the squash with 1 tablespoon of the sesame oil. Spread the squash on a parchment-lined or well-greased baking sheet in a single layer and roast for 40 minutes, turning over with a fork after 20 minutes. Or, until golden on both sides.
  3. In the meantime, in a medium-size bowl, whisk together the molasses, tamari, maple syrup, miso, orange juice, lemon juice, lemon zest, water, and the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil. Add the tofu, toss to coat, and set aside.
  4. When the squash is deeply golden on both sides, remove from the oven.
  5. Transfer the squash to a 2-quart baking dish. Pour the tofu mixture over the squash, and gently toss. Bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes, or until a good amount of the marinade boils off. Toss a couple times along the way. Finish under the boiler if you like, or if you like a bit of extra color on top. Remove from the oven, and season with salt, if needed. Finish with some toasted sesame seeds, chopped arugula, and/or herbs, and serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side (to squeeze on top).
  6. Serves 4-6.

QUARLES DAYLILLIES AND FARM

Shelby County

  

 New calves are being born at Quarles Farm and we're getting ready to plant seeds as soon as the ground dries out.  Another farm season begins.  There'll soon be loads of seedlings growing in greenhouses and cold frames for planting the wholesome summer crops for market.

Until then, we're in Victorian Square with some winter greens and turnips as well as beef, breads, relishes, jams, chutneys and pickled items.  Stop in and see us for a bowl of chili, a brats or a weiner.  We'll have a cooler full of steaks, roasts, ground chuck and round.  Many other cuts are available so check us out.

Here's a recipe for a great beef brisket:

Make a dry rub by combining chili powder, salt, garlic and onion powders, black pepper, sugar, dry mustard, and bay leaf. Season the raw brisket on both sides with the rub. Place in a roasting pan and roast, uncovered, for 1 hour.

Trim the fat and slice meat thinly across the grain. Top with juice from the pan.

 "Local Raw Honey" by NICK and BEV NICKELS
Fayette County    
 

 

The Lexington Farmers Market has moved inside for the next two months at Victorian Square across from Rupp Arena in downtown Lexington, so come out and stock up for the winter.  We will be there this Saturday, March 3rd.

You may purchase honey, pollen, and/or beeswax candles from us anytime from our home at 1909 Nicholasville Road in Lexington. Call us first at 859 276-0258, and we will put what you want on our back porch for you to pick up. You may also call to make an appointment to look at Bev's candle selection.

Out home is located one block north (toward downtown) of the intersection of Southland Drive and Nicholasville Road. Turn on Goodrich Avenue and take the first driveway on your right, and you will be in our back yard. There will be a silver travel trailer (Airstream) under an awning directly in front of you. Your honey will be on the back porch. If we are not home, just leave the money on the counter.  There is change in a small jar on the counter if you need some.

The following vendors are finished for the season but would like to keep everyone updated on where you can find their products through the winter months.  

 

  

Proper Plants

Russ and Lyn Madison

 

We will not be attending Farmer's Market until April 2012.  Spring has sprung at Proper Plants!  We are getting plant plugs in and opening an additional greenhouse every week getting ready for our spring season.  We have our first crop of tomatoes and peppers on the germinators.  We have a nice selection of herbs ready now in addition to mixed herb pots.  There is nothing like fresh herbs in the winter to add to your soups, stews, vegetables and meats.  We also have foliage plants, succulents, jade plants, Kimberly Queen ferns, and more.  We have Crown of Thorn plants at � price!  We grow everything we sell and use biological insect control and organic fertilizers. If you are getting spring fever, it is fun to visit the greenhouses this time of the year to get a "breathe of spring" and to see how the "babies" are started for spring sales.  This is a good time of the year to get gardening advice or ideas for your garden.   Our winter hours are Monday through Saturday 8am-5pm and Sunday 1pm-5pm.  If you need to come out at another time, please call first and we will be able to accommodate you.  If you are cleaning out your garden shed or garage and want to recycle any plant containers, feel free to bring them to the greenhouses.  See you in April or at the greenhouse.  Visit our website at www.properplantsonline.com and/or visit us on Facebook.

BLUE MOON FARM***Sustainably Grown***
Madison County    

 

Somehow, the longest month of winter has come and gone. There is no doubt that the days are getting longer again, and this week's unusually warm weather has me thinking that I'm weeks behind.  Yesterday, I saw daffodil periscopes up above ground, testing the air to see if it's time yet.  It looks like it could be next week before the air cools again enough to slow things down. 
The new garlic looks great, and there is little doubt that the warmth will spur it, as well.  It's been amazing that, with the record rainfall we've experienced in the last year or so that the KY. River has stayed within  its banks, at least in our stretch.  I'm itching to start turning ground, but it's still too wet for that.  So it's been bush hogging long ignored meadows, starting seeds in the green house, and the ever popular "doing the books" that keep us busy.
We'll be delivering more BLUE MOON GARLIC to Good Foods Market and Cafe today, the essential ingredient for your winter soups and stews. and our BLUE MOON FARM GARLIC SCAPE PESTO is available in their Grab and Go section.  Also available at Shorty's Market, for you downtowners, our pesto always helps spice up your meals and remind us that fresh scape season is only a few months off.
Our "industrial strength" BLUE MOON FARM GARLIC POWDER and SMOKED GARLIC POWDER may be ordered through our website.
Keep in touch at:
  Follow us on Facebook 
  and watch for our updated website sometime this winter

We are finished with the LFM for the 2011 season. Farm hours are 9:30-5:30 everyday except Sunday and Tuesday. We have many varieties of apples including Winesap, Fuji, Goldrush, Enterprise, Arkansas Black, Granny Smith and Melrose.

ABIGAIL'S

Fayette County

 

Thank you for a wonderful season.  I will not be attending until next April.  If you need something, just order on the website www.abigailkeam.com.   You all treat Peter nice this Saturday and I will see you next April.

STOCKING STUFFERS - LIP BALMS, HONEY BEARS, SOAP, PEPPERMINT FOOT BALM, GIFT CERTIFICATES, MYSTERY BOOKS AND MORE!!!!!!!

 

HONEY - More fall honey.  I will have 1lb and 8 oz sqeezable bottles plus something new.  A teeny honey bear - just right for stocking stuffers.

 

HAND BALMS - If you are storing up on soaps, you probably should go ahead and get your hand balms for the winter too.  LAVENDER, HONEYSUCKLE AND HONEY NATURE (FRAGRANCE FREE) made with all natural ingredients - olive, coconut, canola, and tea tree oils, honey, beeswax and Vitamin E plus essential oils or fragrance.  Nothing you can't pronounce or don't know what it is.  Put just a little on, spread (goes on a little oily) and let soak in.  Will keep your hands wonderfully soft in this bad winter that I think is going to come. 

 

GIFT IDEAS - Yes, it is that time of the year to start getting ready for the holidays.  Why not just get the shopping out of the way.    Get a gift certificate from Abigail's, or make your own basket with Abigail's hand balms, honey plus my books - very different and unique gift.   How about a Lexington Farmers' Market bag stuffed with goodies from Abigail's.  Don't worry.  My stuff will keep.  See you at the market.

 

SOAPS - LEMONGRASS, SUPERMOIST SOAP, FRENCH VANILLA ALMOND SCRUB, AQUA, HYACINTH, LAVENDER, OATMEAL BODY SCRUB, NOIRE, APPLE CINNAMON, PUMPKIN SPICE, MINT JULEP, BEE POLLEN, AND SUNRISE.  I am not making any more soap this year, so soap bars are limited.  Just wanted to let you know. 

 

GOING MORE GREEN - We are doing everything we can to go green - so we are reusing clean plastic bags for our customers. Another way we can help our honeybee friends.

 

DEATH BY DROWNING AND DEATH BY A HONEYBEE have both been placed on USA Book News "Best Book List of 2011"  This is quite an honor for a little mystery series about a curious, fat, middle-aged sleuth who sells honey at the local farmers' market in Lexington, KY.  Want to thank everyone who purchased a copy and help spread the word about it.

Boone Creek Creamery

Handmade Artisan Cheese

 

We were recently featured in the Lexington Herald-Leader.  To read the article follow this link: http://www.kentucky.com/2011/09/29/1901107/lexington-cheese-maker-becomes.html

 

Boone Creek Creamery specializes in Old World cheeses that are often difficult to find - wonderful cheeses like Lancashire, Rhapsody En Bleu, Cheshire, Wensleydale, Pyrenees, Cantal, or Beaufort. Of course we've added our own touch to create some new classics like our Ginger Rhapsody, Tuscan Sun, Abbey Road, Wildcat Blue, and our exclusive Coffee Gouda.

You won't see hydraulic presses and fancy modern equipment in our micro-creamery. Instead, we make our cheeses by hand using traditional European techniques to protect the delicate curds. This is a lot more work and very time consuming, but we believe it creates better cheeses with rich complex flavors. We hope you agree.

Our cheese is made from all natural JD Country Milk, a family owned Mennonite dairy farm in Logan County. The cows are pasture grazed and never given any antibiotics or hormones. Instead they are fed a vitamin enriched diet and all the grass they can eat. The milk is not homogenized and is pasteurized at just 145 degrees, then quickly cooled to preserve the natural flavor and enzymes that Mother Nature intended. We think the milk tastes better because the cows are happy.

We also offer cheese making classes, supplies, and equipment. For details, call or visit our website.

LA PETITE CREPERIE

Fayette County

 

La Petite Cr�perie brings a little taste of France to the Bluegrass.  You can find us through the winter at Triangle Park where you can warm up with a crepe while you stroll through the Lexington Farmers' Market inside Victorian Square.  

 

The idea for opening a walk-up cr�perie was hatched many years ago when I was a student in France.   After discovering cr�pes they became a staple of my diet because as a hot, quick meal they fit right in with the poor student budget.    The best part was that they were never far away.   Walk-up cr�pe windows are like hot dog stands in New York; they are everywhere.

 

My husband Mark and I took many more trips to France and ate countless more cr�pes.  We decided that the good people of Lexington should be able enjoy them here.   After years of tweaking batters and looking for just the right griddle, and after serving hundreds of cr�pes to our friends, family and my French students, we think we've hit on a good combination. 

 

La Petite Cr�perie hopes to recreate the experience of ordering a French cr�pe � emporter.  Half of the fun is watching, smelling, and anticipating how delicious it's going to be.  Our batter contains only eggs from the market, Weisenberger white and wheat flours, Kentucky produced whole milk, water, canola oil, sugar and salt. Our sweet cr�pe fillings include honey and jam from Farmers' Market vendors, and the butter and sugar cr�pes are made with homemade butter from the market.   We also make a hearty breakfast cr�pe with market eggs, cheese and vegetables.   Our menu will vary as other fruits, berries and vegetables come into season.

 

La Petite Cr�perie will be open most Saturdays at Cheapside from 7:00 am until 2:00 pm. and most Sundays at Southland from 10:00 until 2:00.  You can visit our website, www.petitecreperie.com to find out exactly where we will be and when.  Bon app�tit!
