Moore Farms
Our Online Market Orders This Week
Our yummy $20 Farmers Pick box this week 
Wrapping up another delicious week of our farmer's Good Food! We had a couple of items this week that did not arrive as expected: we did not have enough Cabbage for everyone so for the $30 and $40 Farmer Picks we substituted with a second order of Sugar Snap Peas. The Sugar Snaps went into bags instead of the pint clamshells we normally used so just a heads-up there! And the tasty Grape Tomatoes were less ripe than we like but if folks leave them out at room temperature in the package they will continue to ripen in another day or two. To hasten ripening you can place Tomatoes in a paper bag. 
Two new Spring Chicks hatched for us at Moore Farms this past weekend! 
We had samples this week of the first Slicing Tomatoes from Florida and were they terrific. We shared these with the new and renewing Online Market Investors in their Thank You Goodie Bags. We have extended our Spring Investment Incentive through next week for Memberswho missed the first round, see details on that below.
 

Spring Investment Offer Part II
Thank You Goodie Bags for new and renewing Investors include our own Organic Strawberry Orange Jam!

So we have heard from several Members who missed our Spring Investment Offer and have asked for an extension. To make it fair for everyone we decided to re-open the enrollment for the first two weeks of May (we'll close out the offer on Tuesday May 13th at 10:00am when the Online Market closes for the week). By essentially pre-paying for Online Market orders, Members still get to order what they want when they want it and also enjoy a very attractive return on their Investment!

Weekly Recipe
Primavera Dinner Package
A lovely light meal, we'll send you the vegetables and cheese, you add pasta, rice or other grain to round it out! Package includes: English Peas (in the shell); Carrots; Swiss Chard; Grape Tomatoes; Mixed Herbs and Wright Dairy Gouda Cheese.

1. Wash and shell the English Peas, you will want 1/2 cup for this recipe so you can use the remaining Peas for another dish.

2. Prepare Pasta, Rice, Quinoa or other grain of your choice while preparing the vegetables.

3. Wash and trim Carrots, cut into bite-sized sticks or rounds.

4. Wash and trim Swiss Chard. Remove stems and slice them as you would Celery. Chop the leafy green tops.

5. Wash and slice Grape Tomatoes in half.

6. Grate 1/2 of the package of Gouda Cheese (you will want about 1/2 cup). Wash and finely chop Mixed Herbs: we included Garlic Chives, Oregano, Mint and French Sorrel. The little bit of Mint is really nice and won't be overpowering, the Sorrel adds a lemony flavor.
The Swiss Chard stems add another texture and are delicious! 
To prepare meal: in a large skillet saute Chard stems and Carrots with 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil, salt and pepper. If you like you can add chopped Onion or Garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes then add Peas and Grape Tomatoes. After another 2-3 minutes of cooking add chopped Swiss Chard greens. Combine and cook for another minute or until Chard just wilts (vegetables will be tender-crisp).  Toss in fresh Herbs and grated Gouda Cheese, serve immediately with Pasta, Rice or other prepared grain. Tastes like Spring!
