Bunnies like carrots! Carrots are loaded with Vitamin C and make a delicious dessert to satisfy any sweet tooth. Our Carrot Cake (recipe below) includes carrots (of course), applesauce, eggs, and walnuts, the perfect combination of protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats like Omega-3. It’ll get you hopping with health like that Bunny!
Is food costing more than it used to feed your family? The price of food is rising! At Harvest Home, we looked for ways you can save a few dollars, stay healthy, and not give up on taste. Try cutting back on how much meat you use in a dish. Replace meat with tofu or beans.
What makes getting through March to April Spring a bit tricky? The weather: Rain, snow, sleet, warm one day, freezing the next, spring sun trying to chase away winter gloom. You never know!
If you are looking for better taste (and nutrition), try frozen fruits and veggies. Why? Because they are allowed to fully ripen in sunny fields where they are grown. Then they are picked and the same day, frozen to keep their fresh taste and nutrition.
The snappy taste of a fresh apple is like biting into the crispness of fall weather. It's apple season and Harvest Home Farmer's Markets are bursting with different varieties: crisp, snappy, juicy, tart or slightly sweet and all freshly picked by local farmers for the best taste.
Fall is approaching. Check out what's in season with these handy lists from the HHFM farmers at Migliorelli Farm - What's in Season in the Fields and What's in Season in the Orchard. Both lists are incredibly helpful and even include a storage and shelf life guide.
