Wood Duck Farm
February 21st, 2012
A few weeks ago we started offering items from other local artisan producers, as well as from our working farm kitchen. We basically did this as a response to requests from our farm CSA members desiring local items like honey, eggs etc. Well we decided to take it up a notch and work with a schooled chef and offer seasonal food items as well.

So What's On the Farm Menu
Online items with an asterisk (*) are products that are 51% or greater local, organic, or sustainably produced.
Short Pound Cakes w/ WDF Strawberries* Buttery individual pound cakes with shaved white chocolate. Strawberry compote topping, made with very our own sustainably grown strawberries. Cakes and compote packaged separately to preserve quality. Serves 4 (approx. 40 ozs ) @ $9 Ltd Quantities.
Turkey Pot Pie* A rich and creamy mixture of East Texas turkey, our sustainably farm-raised onions & sugar snap peas; potatoes, carrots, mushrooms from Madisonville, Texas; cream, and flour. This simple classic is simply outstanding. Serves 4-6; 8" pie @ $10
Dustin's Eggs, Dozen* Farmers' Market regulars know that Dustin's free-range eggs from Weimar, Texas arrive super-fresh and super-delicious. Get your own dozen of local, pastured, drug-free, sustainably-raised eggs here. Limited quantities, so order early. Sand Creek Gouda* Houston Dairymaids brings us this sustainable semi-firm cheese from Cameron, Texas: "New cheesemaker Ben Godfrey is already showing great promise with his raw-milk Gouda. Made from the Grade A Jersey milk of his small herd, the Sand Creek Gouda is buttery and mild with just enough tang to keep it interesting. It's the kind of cheese that calls you to the refrigerator late at night." Or in the morning, or in the afternoon . . .approx. 8 oz. @ $9.00 Honey from Reed Family Farms* Many of you know Wendy as the "Honey Lady" down at the Saturday Urban Harvest Farmer's Market. Wendy, her husband Kenny, and their bees produce 100% pure, local honey from the rural areas and sustainable farms of Harris, Montgomery and Waller counties. Their guarantee to you, our customer, is that they only deliver a product that is of the highest, most pure quality. It is never massed-produced commercially; it is instead sold in small micro-batches to ensure this honey is a fresh & locally-produced, nourishing food. Their local honey is always harvested within a 75 mile radius of Houston proper. 24 ozs @ $8.00 Farm Kitchen Soups This Week: Chicken with Wild Rice*
Moroccan Chickpea Soup* (vegan, gluten-free)
Pico De Gallo (Mild, Vegan) AKA "Texas Gazpacho" as some of our farmer market customers love it so much they eat our "chunky salsa" with a spoon. Our Wood Duck Farm-grown onions, garlic and cilantro are blended together with fresh tomatoes, jalapeņo peppers and lemon juice to create some of the best chip dipping combination that you have ever tasted. Not into chips? Consider blanketing over garlic sauteed shrimp/fish and adding some pineapple/ginger for a "Thai inspired twist"? Have a little left over? Add to a cheese omelet for breakfast. Shelf life about 7-9 days. 24 ozs @ $6.
