This wet weather is great…no kidding! I’m excited about this wet weather. It really is awful to work in, but it buys us time. The alternative is a hard, killing frost. We’ve had a few frosts, but not the worst damage. I’ll explain below. This week is a full moon. But I doubt you’ll see it.…

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…

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…

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.

We are officially past the half way point for the winter. How fast it goes by! This week we’ll bring back a taste of summer with some tasty fig vinegar roasted cherry tomatoes. These really captured the flavors of the summer in a jar. Try tossing these with your fresh egg linguini this week or…
