Dear Friends,
The monarchs are back! The monarchs are back! For three years now, we've been planting milkweed and other flowers on our limited land for food and habitat for the monarchs. They are beginning to appear and we've seen them laying eggs so we expect many more than we had last year and that was a lot.
If you're wondering what this has to do with your food this week, let alone what the quote of the week has to do with this, read this short article to understand: Monarch Populations. Local farms benefit society in many ways that perhaps not everyone is aware. In our humble way we are fighting back for control over our food system and what is done to the land. Your patronage helps support the monarchs..
We happen to like eggplant a lot. Here are recipes if you need new ideas: Eggplant Recipe Ideas
Baby celery is delightful in salads and soups...try making this easy soup with your scallions and carrots. Sweet cream or sour cream as a dollop on top makes it even better.
