Hi there
Welcome to Week 18 & October!
October is here, and it's the last month of the Summer Share. It has been an awesome season-- we cannot do this without you. It's amazing to think of how many Clevelanders are eating food grown so close to where they live, sharing recipes with their friends and neighbors to eat more whole foods, and coming out to classes to learn more about the art and skills of cooking. We're all making a community that cares about their food and where it comes from, so thanks for being a part.
Okay, on to the fun stuff. We have a great bag for you this week, and if you haven't tried our breakfast patties before, they're absolutely addictive and they're in your shares. We make them with sausage and bacon, which was actually the solution to a "waste not, want not" problem we ran across: when the butcher cuts up the hogs, we had a lot of leftover bacon "ends" after we sliced nice, long, straight pieces of bacon. So we decided to grind the smoked & cured bacon ends with ground pork to make a very tasty breakfast patty. Best way to make them is to bake them about 20 minutes in a 350 degree oven on a cookie sheet with either a sear first in a hot skillet or griddle or after baking. I've had luck doing it either way.
This weekend's events-- the Customer Appreciation BBQ and the Braising Class-- were both a ton of fun. Thank you everyone who came out to join us! Just a reminder, we will be collecting your typed recipes from the cookout. Please email your recipe and any photos of your dish here (or just reply to this email) and in a few weeks we'll send out the link on our site.
| Thanks for coming out to the BBQ! |

Now that we're winding down, here are a couple of things to know:
We'll take back Fresh Fork Market Egg Cartons and Glass Jars.
Once you've finished that jar of grape cider or that carton of Fresh Fork Market eggs, you can bring them back to the stop and we will clean and reuse them! However this only applies to items purchased from Fresh Fork-- we cannot reuse any glass jars or egg cartons from another producer,so those can just go into your recycling. Thanks for being green!

|
We only have a few cases of salmon left for sale, so this is your last shot till next October! They're coming out on the routes the week of October 7th (hint hint-- next week!)
Once all the orders are in, we'll send you a confirmation email with details on pick up.

~ CABBAGE MANIA ~
Monday, October 12th 6-8:30pm
Cabbage is an amazingly versatile and healthy vegetable, and is an essential ingredient in many regional and Old World dishes. It packs a serious wallop in your bags-- some of them coming in a a couple pounds a piece-- and if you don't know how to prepare it, you might find yourself using it as a doorstop or a paperweight.
Join Parker and the Fresh Fork Staff as we go over basic preparation techniques, traditional recipes, and some new ideas for making the most of all the varieties of cabbage that grow in abundance in Ohio, and appear in your shares as the weather gets colder.
$30 per participant covers instruction, recipe/technique packet, and a ton of amazing food served in multi-course tastings.
