October 24: The Sweetness of Frost
The best farmers understand that nature is a force to be worked with, not against. Sure, greenhouses, row covers, and other season extension methods can lengthen the season of harvest. But ultimately, nature prevails. Thankfully, she can be kind as she eases us through the transition, sweetening up some leafy and root crops with a light frost.

Hope you have been enjoying the lovely fall. Time to start thinking about some stews and soups with the changing weather, and we are your source for one-stop local food shopping!

We are having a special on frozen broccoli to clear out some inventory. If you purchase any fresh broccoli, you can purchase five pound bags of the frozen for only $5. It's great for processing into soup to which you can then add some fresh florets! Check it out the special listing in the inventory.

Enjoy!
