Josephine Has Her Baby & Beautiful Boxes This Week 
Mama and baby about an hour after her arrival.
Mama Josephine finally had her first kid Friday November 1st after much, much anticipation. She had a baby girl who looks just exactly like her! We'll have our usual name contest: send us your suggestions and everyone will vote for their favorite at our Fall Farm Day & Turkey Pickup on November 23rd. A few facts to help you with name nominations: Josephine is named after Napoleon's empress; the baby is milk chocolate brown-colored with a white patch on her head; she was born on All Saint's Day; and she arrived after a long wait with no heads-up at all, Josephine had none of the usual goat labor behaviors she just popped out! Send us your suggestions and check out the new picture posted below and more on our Facebook page.

Our beautiful $20 Farmers Pick box for this week.
OK back to the Good Food! Everything went just great this week from all of the farmers, we didn't get as many of the Kohlrabi as we expected so Farmer's Pick orders got one good size bulb, the rest of the box was all really full so we hope you enjoy the Kohlrabi tasting! It is great raw or cooked but if you need inspiration for ways to enjoy this Cabbage Cousin click here for our previous Kohlrabi Recipes. I know we'll be enjoying a great stir fry dinner here on the farm with these great ingredients.

Weekly Recipes
Our Recipes this week are for our Soup & Salad Box. Box includes: Mixed Roots, Red Hill Aged Cheddar, Arugula, Apples and Radishes.
Creamy Root Soup
The great thing about this Soup is you can use whatever Roots are in season: since the veggies are pureed you might find your family unknowingly enjoying Turnips!

1. Wash, trim and chop Mixed Roots: we sent four pounds that may include Potatoes, Asian Turnips, Sweet Potatoes and White Sweet Potatoes.

2. Saute in a soup pot for 5-10 minutes with 2-4 Tablespoons Olive Oil and season with salt and pepper, cook roots until just starting to get tender.

3. Add 4 cups liquid of your choice: we recommend Chicken or Vegetable Broth. Cover and simmer for 10-20 minutes or until roots are very tender.

4. Puree with an Immersion Blender or in a food processor to the texture of your liking (Will likes his very smooth and I like a little more texture!).

5. Add 1 can Coconut Milk and stir well. Check for seasoning and adjust, add other herbs and spices of your choice. Seasonings that we like are Cumin, Paprika, Cardamom, Coriander, Bay Leaf, Rosemary or other herbs.

Arugula Apple Salad
 

There are some terrific flavors and textures going on in this salad!

Wash, trim and chop Arugula, slice Radishes and Apples. Grate Red Hill Cheddar Cheese.  
Arrange Arugula on individual plates or in a large bowl, scatter Apples and Radishes on top and finish with the grated Cheese. Drizzle with vinegar and oil just before serving.
