OUR MARKETS WILL OPEN IN JUNE JOIN US!
First, we want to take a moment to say thank you to those who have continued to work to get us through this time, nurses, doctors, police officers, firefighters, subway workers, grocery stores, food delivery service and postal workers. Thank YOU!!
Here at Harvest Home we are making sure we put the appropriate guidelines in place to ensure social distancing and maintain a clean environment to ensure the safety of our customers, staff farmers and vendors. To ensure your safety we will be adhering to these safety guidelines:
Only producers and their staff should handle products. Customers must not touch any produce or products until after they have purchased.
ALL customers and staff MUST wear a face mask to shop at the market
All producers MUST wear protective gloves.
All producers MUST sanitize their stands regularly, primarily wiping down tables, terminals, cash boxes, etc.
Tents WILL be spaced at least 10 feet apart to reduce congestion, ideally all farm stands should use vinyl or plastic table covers for easy sanitizing.
No sampling of products.
All staff processing credit/debit/SNAP transactions should wear protective gloves.
Signage will be posted throughout the market to encourage customers to social distance, cover their coughs, not touch their faces, and stay home if they are sick.
During this time, it is even more essential that you and your family prepare healthy well-balanced meals. Shopping at the farmers markets, you will get the freshest locally grown produce while keeping the proper preventive guidelines.
COME OUT THIS SUMMER AND SHOP WITH US.
RECIPE: Carrot Cake
It's time for a cake and a celebration. This carrot cake, you won't taste the carrots, is not only delicious, but it's healthy!
INGREDIENTS:
3 cups of finely chopped carrots (about 6 large ones)
1 cup chopped walnuts
2 cups flour
1 tsp salt
tsp cinnamon
2 tsp baking soda
¾ cup of applesauce
¾ cup of salad oil
2 cups sugar
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
PREPARATION:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Chop the carrots and walnuts and combine in a bowl. Use a food processor or blender if you have one.
Combine flour, salt, cinnamon and baking soda in a separate bowl.
Mix together applesauce, salad oil, sugar and eggs until smooth. Add the mixture to the carrots and walnuts.
Blend in flour mixture.
Pour into a lightly greased baking pan & place in the oven.
NOTE: If you are using a 9" x 13 pan, bake the cake for 1 hour. If you are using a tube pan, bake the cake for 1 ½ hours.
Let the cake cool and then decorate. To make the cake extra healthy, skip the frosting and make a nest of coconut flakes with jelly beans in the middle. Yum, yum, yummmm!
