The snappy taste of a fresh apple is like biting into the crispness of fall. YUMM! Our Harvest Home Farmers’ Markets are full of apples freshly picked by our local farmers for the best taste.
Some are for carving. Some are for eating! Delicious in muffins, bread, or pancakes. Pumpkin adds creamy flavor to smoothies, and soups or makes a mouth-watering meal (See recipes). It’s nutritiously rich, high in fiber, and low in calories.
Amazing Winter Squash: White Delicata and Sweet Dumpling with green strips. Pale yellow Butternut. Dark green, round Acorn. West Indian Calabaza and surprising Spaghetti Squash! They look like decorations, but their real beauty lies on the inside.
We all need veggie nutrition, especially kids. But, “kids don’t like veggies.” Actually, kids don’t like bland, boring veggies. A bit of seasoning, a little fun, and a few “sneaky” tricks can get your whole family eating more veggies.
It’s Spring and Cinco de Mayo! A perfect combination of celebrations. Cinco de Mayo is a celebration created by Mexicans living in America in the late 1800s. Celebrated in America, but not much south of the border, it is in memory of the victory of a small Mexican army over a 3 times as large French colonial force.
We hope you enjoyed a real Thanksgiving Feast. Tired of cooking and want something a bit easier? Use all those leftover dishes. You can reheat them or turn them into new dishes with very little time and effort. Think about Turkey Soup, Turkey Chili, or Turkey Stew loaded with fresh or left over veggies. Or open-faced Turkey sandwiches with stuffing and gravy.
The cooler days are starting. Winter is coming. Now is a good time to think about cleaning. Not cleaning your house; cleaning your hard-working body on the inside so it will “run” better. It’s easier than you think. Our Harvest Home Farmers’ Markets are full of what you need: colorful fruits and veggies.
