Recipes


Delicata Squash, Arugula, and Apple Salad
This is a delicious salad, perfect for Fall!
Serves 4

2 delicata squash, scrubbed clean, seeds removed, sliced into rings or chunks (no need to peel!)
1crisp apple, cored and chopped
4-6 ounces arugula, washed
1/4 cup crumbled goat cheese
1 small clove of garlic, pressed or finely minced
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium heat. Add the delicata squash and cook until browned on all sides, about 15 minutes. The squash should be crisp on the outside and tender inside. Make the vinaigrette: mix the garlic, mustard, and vinegar. Whisk in 2 tablespoons of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper. Place the cooked squash on a plate. Drizzle with 2 teaspoons of vinaigrette. Toss the goat cheese, arugula, and apples with the vinaigrette and place on top of the squash. Add freshly ground black pepper if desired.

Market News


Hello!

Lots of news and good stuff this week!

First of all, we have a bounty of produce for you this week! The Fall crops are coming in and there is so much yummy diversity in the food offerings! We may be done with tomatoes, but we are making up for it this week in beans! There is a great variety and they are so delicious and tender when just picked!

The Bloomy Rind cheese shop is once again putting on The Southern Artisan Cheese Fest this year, on September 27th and 28th. You can read about it at the website, southerncheesefest.com. This is the south’s premier cheese event, featuring artisanal cheese producers from all over the region!
Kathleen is generously offering a free pair of tickets to a lucky Fresh Harvest customer! Place an order, and when you pick it up on Wednesday we will put your name in a hat for a drawing. We will let you know via email if you won, and we will have a free pair of tickets for you on Wednesday, September 25th to the cheese fest!

Twin Forks Farm bread and granola are off this week. David is taking a week off but will return next week.

Finally, please note that Wedge Oak Farm has made their Thanksgiving turkeys available for pre order. These sold out last year, so get your order in early! These turkey’s will be frozen, and you will have a few options for picking them up. Thanksgiving will be on November 28th, and we will be delivering on Tuesday November 26th. You will be able to pick up your turkey on Wednesday, Nov. 20th or Tuesday the 26th. After you place your deposit for the turkey, Karen from Wedge Oak Farm will contact you with available sizes and more information.

Also this year, Dozen Bakery will have pre order pies for Thanksgiving – pumpkin and apple gallete!
The Bloomy Rind will also be offering cheese trays for entertaining.

Please remember we move up under the porch at the church if it looks like rain. The forecast is iffy for Wednesday. We are so grateful to the Trinity Church community for letting us use this space!

Thanks so much for your support, and we look forward to seeing you !

John and Tallahassee
