MEET THE GROWER!
Fox Farm will be premiering six new sausages at this Tuesday’s Meet the Grower. In addition to having samples, they will be grilling and selling sausages on a bun for $4.00 and will have extras including sauerkraut, sautéed peppers and onions, and homemade tomato sauce with shredded Parmesan cheese for $1.00 more.
Packages of each sausage variety will be available for purchase at the event. The sausages featured are Hot Italian, Sweet Italian, Thüringer Bratwurst, Nürnberg Bratwurst, Kielbasa, and Irish Bangers. A complete description of each sausage is available on-line.
Main Street Meats (Link 41) makes the sausages for us following our 100-year-old recipes from family and friends.
We plan on being outside for this event. If the weather is inclement, we will move inside.
We hope everyone will stop by to introduce themselves and taste our products.-——————————————————-
And from Jess Wilson: In Town Organics has a limited amount of Seasonal Salad Mix for sale this week. This week’s mix will be a first cutting and will contain green and red lettuces, spinach, mizuna and golden frills mustard, beet greens, arugula, tat soi, cress, and basil. It’s ridiculously good!
Additionally, we have many tender young greens for sale this week including head lettuces and baby beet and chard greens. We have scaled back our commercial operation this year (because of the baby) so our quantities are limited. Get it while it lasts! (Psst…there are also a few strawberries). -——————————————————-
BELIEVE IT OR NOT, IT’S TURKEY ORDERING TIME ALREADY! THIS IN FROM FOUNTAIN SPRINGS FARM:
It is time for us to take turkey orders for Thanksgiving. There are turkey deposits on the market for anyone who would like to make sure they have a NON-GMO-fed and pastured-raised, fresh, never frozen, turkey for Thanksgiving. Place your order for a deposit and the deposit comes off the total price of turkey when picked up.
The turkeys are $3.75 per pound and weigh about 12 to 25 lbs. We deliver them the Tuesday before Thanksgiving.
When you place your order for a deposit, leave a comment on the weight that you would like. We will get as close as we can.
Thanks so much.
