Visiting Sterken Farms

Visiting Sterken Farms

By Wardeh on May 7, 2009

We went to the natural, U-Pick farm I mentioned on Tuesday: Sterken Farms. We brought home many types of lettuces, baby mixed dark greens, turnips, radishes, asparagus, and free range duck eggs. Other things are not quite ready — the cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, beans, peas, onions, green onions, and berries.

No-GMO Blog Challenge

No-GMO Blog Challenge

By Wardeh on April 27, 2009

The top 3 GM crops are corn, soybeans and cotton. And canola is up there, too. But did you know chocolate chips may contain GM ingredients? Yes, chocolate chips! That surprised me. There are two things you can do to pretty much assure that your family will not be consuming GM foods. Also, I share some thoughts on my family’s food budget and detail the sources of all my family’s food.

Tomatoes, Tomatoes, Tomatoes

By Wardeh on November 3, 2008

Last week I got tomatoes from the same farm where we buy chickens, eggs, and turkeys. They usually don’t sell their tomatoes, but were through putting up their own supply and let me reap the harvest from their still-producing 35 tomato plants. The plants are under a greenhouse cover and still flourising as if it [...]

Raw Pear Sauce, Raw Apple Sauce, For the Freezer

By Wardeh on September 11, 2008

We are getting a bunch of apples and pears today. They’re coming from our sweet local doctor and her husband, who have an abundance. They called last week to ask if we wanted some. Yes, we do! Jeff is going to pick them up in town today, as he’s there and I’m not.
Of course, we’ll [...]

Disappointing Farmer’s Market Yesterday

By Wardeh on August 28, 2008

There was only one fruit/veggie farm at the Farmer’s Market yesterday. They mostly offer bread. I ordered plums from them, but either they forgot to bring them or they didn’t have enough to give me. So, none of those to bring home. They do have the awesome heirloom tomatoes, that’s good. The only other thing [...]

Farmer’s Market

By Wardeh on August 22, 2008

The last three weeks have been incredible at our Farmer’s Market, which until recently, really didn’t have much beyond eggs and bread. But a couple other farmers are coming to the market. We’ve brought home: plums, figs, pears, peaches, apples, sweet corn, green beans, kohlrabi, onions, broccoli, purple cabbage, heirloom tomatoes, and cucumbers. I’m probably [...]
