Recipes

Sweet Potatoes and Greens
This is a sweet and savory combo that is great for you as well as tastes delicious!

(Makes 4 Servings)

-2 or 3 large sweet potatoes
-2 bunches of greens (kale, collards, or chard)
-2 cloves of garlic
-juice of half of 1 lemon
-1 tsp. honey
-1/2 tsp. cinnamon
-1/4 tsp. ground cloves
-salt and pepper
-1 tbsp. olive oil

Directions

1. Peel the sweet potatoes and cut into bite-sized pieces (make them as uniform as you can.)

2. Heat half of the oil in the pan over medium heat and add the sweet potatoes. Cook, stirring occasionally, until just brown on all sides and soft (about 12-15 minutes.) If the potatoes are still hard at the end of this time, you can add a Tbsp or so of water, put a cover on the pan and steam for 2 minutes.  When they are finished cooking, add spices and salt and pepper to taste.  Set aside.

3. While the sweet potatoes are cooking, wash the greens (but do not dry them.) Remove the stems and cut the leaves into smaller pieces. Mince the garlic.  In a separate pan, heat the remainder of the oil over medium heat, add the garlic and saute for 1 minute.  Add in the greens and cook until tender, stirring often.  Salt and pepper to taste.

4. Combine the potatoes, honey, and lemon juice with the greens, stir and serve.

Market News

Hello!

We hope you are safe and dry after this very wet and stormy day. Everything around our parts are super saturated and the creeks are really raging. The hoophouses have standing water in them which hopefully will drain quickly in the coming days and not damage any crops.
The folks at Bear Creek Farm have put together some special packages of their meats that should help beat some winter blues. In fact, they have a offer right now where you can buy a 1/4 of a steer and stock up your freezer. It’s a hefty price tag, but you do end up saving money overall. Stock your freezer with: 4 Rib Eye Steaks 4 New York Strips 3 Filet Mignons 4 Sirloin Steaks 1 Flank Steak 3 Chuck Roasts 1 Tri-Tip 1 London Broil 1 Rump Roast 1 Sirloin Tip Roast 1 Eye of Round Roast 1 Top Round Roast 3 lbs of Stew Meat 4 lbs of Short Ribs 50 lbs of Ground Beef in 2 lb tubes For $720.

We’d like to thank the Nashville Food Project for supporting us and helping us get the word out about Fresh Harvest through their newsletter. In case you don’t know, the Nashville Food Project is a non profit group that cooks and distributes hot, healthy meals throughout Nashville’s neighborhoods. Much of the food they cook is donated from local farms, or raised in their own gardens. They do so much to provide good, fresh food made with love to our neighbors in need, as well as promoting our local food economy and urban gardening infrastructure. You can volunteer in their kitchens or food distribution trucks through their website, www.thenashvillefoodproject.org.

We appreciate your support, and look forward to seeing you on Wednesday!
John and Tallahassee
