| Farm Stand
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
New this week are Red Haven Peaches, White Peaches, Do-Nut Peaches, Yellow Plums, Nectarines, and Blackberries. For a complete listing of what's available at the stand click here. Have you had a white peach before? If not, you might want to give them a try. White peaches are less acidic than yellow peaches and have a sweeter taste. Do Nut peaches are a special kind of white peach that are even sweeter yet. They're my favorite. But those of you who don't have that sweet tooth might prefer the yellow. Dan prefers yellow. Not me - the sweeter the better. Is there a thing as too sweet? Maybe, but I haven't found it in fruit anyhow.
Don't forget to bring those Thank You Program cards back. You get a 10% discount when you bring your card in. (They were mailed out to everyone who signed up last year for the program.) Don't feel left out if you didn't sign up. You can sign up now and we'll mail you a gift certificate just for signing up. Can't beat that! |
| U-Pick Blueberries
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This Saturday is your last chance to pick your own blueberries. There are a lot of berries out there! We'll still have berries in the stand, but we'll be picking them after Saturday since they will begin to slow down. But I promise you - that's not the case for this Saturday. They are still plentiful. So if you haven't come out yet, make plans now. The cost is only $2 per pound.

| Recipe of the Week
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I was initially going to use a peach recipe - seems appropriate - but I already have some excellent peach recipes on the recipe page. Blackberries are in right now, so if you've never made the Blackberry Peach Pie you might want to give it a try.
Anyhow, I decided to go with a cabbage recipe because cabbage is in season, we have it at the stand, and I don't have any other cabbage recipes listed. This is a filling meal. Kind of like spaghetti but instead of noodles it's cabbage. It's called Sausage-Sauced Cabbage. It's another recipe from Dan's mom! Give it a try! |
