Recipes

Kale & Walnut Pesto

_This is a great way to integrate more healthy greens into your diet! Try it not only on pasta, but as a sandwich spread or with eggs in the morning!
_
small bunch of kale (4-6 leaves, remove the thick part of the stems*)
¼ cup walnuts, toasted
½ to 1 clove of garlic
¼ cup olive oil (or more for a smoother pesto)
juice & zest of one lemon
salt & pepper to taste
optional: grated parmesan or pecorino cheese
(note: you can use all of the kale stems in your pesto, you will just have to boil them longer (separately) than the leaves. About 20 minutes, or until tender)

Instructions
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Fill a large bowl with ice and water.
Blanch kale for about 30 seconds, remove and place in the ice bath to stop the cooking process.
Dry the kale a bit, squeeze out some of excess water and set on a towel for a few minutes more.
Blend everything together in a food processor. Pulse to create a chunky pesto, blend longer to create a smoother one. Taste and adjust, adding more salt, pepper, lemon, olive oil, as necessary.

Market News

Hello!

Welcome, 2016! We wish you all a very healthy and happy year ahead! It is hard to believe that this will be our 10th year as Fresh Harvest!

We started off just two farmers selling you our produce via email, and have now expanded our web-based ordering service to include produce from other small local farms, humanely raised meats and eggs, and other artisan products from small businesses. We are fortunate to work with some of the best farmers, producers, and food-crafters that Middle Tennessee has to offer. All of our vendors are also our friends, and we trust their practice and respect their product. That is why we guarantee everything we sell on the Market. We only want you to be eating and supporting food that is good for you and that you feel good about! If you are not satisfied in any way, please let us know .

Although we have expanded, John And Tally still remain involved in every aspect of Fresh Harvest. We are heavily invested and committed to providing not only the best in local food, but an amazing service as well. We continue to learn and grow in this process, and always appreciate any feedback you as a customer have to offer. It helps us to do our job better, and that is always our goal. Please know you can email us at any time with any question, comment, or concern!

We know that you have many choices in purchasing local food these days! We are so grateful that you make the time and effort to shop with Fresh Harvest. With Fresh Harvest, your money is going directly to supporting small local farms and businesses. You are truly using your money and time to help create a more sustainable local economy and community. Thank you!

Please remember this year to eat more vegetables! Seriously, the best way to support small farmers and local agriculture is to enjoy eating the bounty they produce! Try to work more kale into that weekly dinner rotation, or how about a new vegetable you have never tried before? We have some great, vibrant and oh so delicious winter crops available for you, and we truly hope you enjoy them!

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

John and Tallahassee
