Winter Share 2011-2012 – Week 15

Frozen pizza dough balls, veggie burgers, ground chicken, oats, and more This week wraps up our winter season. I think we have a fairly exciting bag this week, but just a little on the light side. We’ve been over budget 4 of the last 5 weeks so I need to make up a little space…

Winter Share 2011-12 – Week 14

Ramp Pasta, butter, chicken brats, and feta I’ve noticed a lot of requests for butter lately, so I’m guessing it’s time for some butter. This week you’ll have your choice of salted or unsalted butter. For anyone with some butter already sitting around, I do suggest putting this butter in a zip-loc bag and putting…

Winter Share 2011-12 – Week 12

Steaks, concord grape jam, swiss cheese, and more This week we have a few new products. First, a Concord Grape Jelly made by Diane at Humble Pie Baking Company, using some of the concord grapes we had back in the fall. I’ve been holding onto this for a few months trying to figure out where…

Winter Share 2011-12 – Week 11

Taco Themed, with some extra goodies including pork chops and sorghum syrup This week brings back a few family favorites – the taco theme. We have tasty organic corn chips and organic Black Turtle beans from Shagbark Seed and Mill, along with a variety of salsas from Blaze Gourmet, and mixed greens from our friends…

Winter Share 2011-12 – Week 10

Pork Roast, Raspberry Jalapeno Jam, Pasta, Cabbage, Turnips, Apples This week I’m really excited about. The centerpiece of this week’s bag is a large pork shoulder roast (which puts me a bit over budget so we may have to adjust next week). We have boston butt roasts, boneless sirloin roasts, and boneless arm roasts. A…

Winter Share 2011/12 – Week 9

Whole chicken, frozen berries, cheese, apples, tofu, and yogurt This week we have a few surprises. First, we are taking advantage of some frozen raspberries from the summer. These tasty berries will go great in a smoothie featuring Velvet View whole milk yogurt or they can be used to make a tasty dessert using the…

Winter Share 2011-12 – Week 6

Chickens, organic black beans, butternut squash pasta I hope everyone had a very special holiday season. For me the parties and time off was nice, but I’m ready to be back to work. We started planning over the break for the summer 2012. I can’t believe it! So much work to do and so little…

The tradition of eating goose on Christmas goes back to the middle ages. Those who were wealthy, lords and the like, would feast on goose and swan for their Christmas dinner. That would be combined with venison and whatever root vegetables could be had. The peasants would typically have whatever could be found and a…
