March 5th - It's March Already!
We can't believe that March has already arrived and it's time to set the clocks to spring ahead this weekend! Hopefully the temperatures warm up a bit so our farmers can get their seeds started.

You may have noticed that this newsletter looks a bit different. We are trying to change the website and newsletter color scheme to be a bit friendlier to the user. It's a work in progress, so please feel free to share your feedback with Sara. There's not much we can change for formatting but we can set our own colors. We're trying out a logo themed color scheme this week.

We don't currently have any dried beans in our inventory, but Harlow Farm does have some ...if you're interested in milling your own. They are still in the shells, so if you're looking for an indoor activity, possibly with kids, and want some beans then let Sara know.

We have new vendor and product on WFF this week! One of the Monadnock Menus vendors from across the river will now be offering their product to Windham Farm and Food members. See below for details.

The Basin Farm has also added some new root crops this week. You will see the inventory below.

Feature Vendor
Echo Farm
Echo Farm milks 80 cows and has over 160 cows on the property; half Milking Shorthorns and half Jerseys. The farm lies on 35 acres in Hinsdale, NH (the southwest corner of the state). We're proud to be the first dairy farm in the country to be Certified Humane by Humane Farm Animal care.

We pride ourselves on doing things differently on our farm as evidenced by the production of our unique puddings and our focus on cow care. Cow comfort is one of our top priorities. Our milking cows are allowed to go out twice a day - this gets them off the cement and limits the stress on their joints. Our girls are housed in freestall barns, which means they are not tied up and are free to roam about the barn. They have fresh feed and water available to them at all times, and they sleep on bedded sawdust packs that gives them a soft place to lay down and stretch out.
Our puddings are made with premium, all natural ingredients and milk from our own herd of cows!
Flavors: Chocolate, Vanilla, Tapioca, Coffee Caramel Tapioca, Butterscotch, and Rice
Free samples available on request!
