Spring is Just Around the Corner
The mornings are cold, but the days are starting to feel like spring. For now, most of the vegetables available in our inventory are still either storage crops or the last of winter’s greenhouse production. However, our farmers have begun seeding and transplanting in the fields, which means it won’t be more than a few weeks until we start getting in a fresh selection of spring crops. Big news below, so keep reading!

CURRENT PRODUCT SELECTION

Veggies, fruit, and herbs: Apples, beets, carrots, chard, baby greens, kale, leeks, parsnips, potatoes, turnips, frozen sweet corn, frozen squash puree, frozen peppers, frozen pumpkin puree, mushrooms, rosemary.

Other: Apple cider, cheese, pudding, yogurt, eggs, cereal + granola, beef, lamb, pork, condiments, maple syrup.

A NEW MONADNOCK MENUS SOUTHERN ROUTE

Our big project for the season! We hope to launch a new delivery route by July. The route will serve the Winchester-Fitzwilliam-Jaffrey corridor and offer Peterborough and Keene a second weekly delivery day.

See the proposed route here: https://goo.gl/DfOmhh

We need your help to make this route succeed. If you know chefs or food producers along the proposed route who want to be a part of the local food movement, please tell them about how Monadnock Menus has helped you, and that we will soon be serving their area. Ask them to voice their interest to Alex: coordinator@monadnockmenus.org or 802-451-0555.

ADVISORY BOARD MEETING: APRIL 28

We will discuss our route proposal in detail at our next Advisory Board Meeting on Thursday, April 28, from 12:30pm – 2:30pm in Keene. If you are a registered Monadnock Menus buyer or vendor and want to be a part of the Advisory Board discussion, please join us at the meeting! Keep your eyes out for more meeting details in a forthcoming email. Contact Alex with your questions: coordinator@monadnockmenus.org or 802-451-0555.
