Market News

Hello!

The Market will remain open until Tuesday evening for you to place an order for this week. Next delivery day will be February 6th.

Here is some information on how Fresh Harvest works.
*If you see an item as Sold Out, write in the Comment section at check out that you would like that item if more becomes available. We’ll try our best to add it to your order.
• If you recruit a new customer to Fresh Harvest and they open an account with a $50 deposit, we will credit your account $10 for each new customer who signs up. They will need to tell me your name, so that I can credit your account. Word of mouth has been our best advertising. Any help that you can provide is greatly appreciated.
• Every week, we leave orders at the church for customers who cannot arrive at Trinity before 6pm. This has worked well for those who have difficulty with the 4-6pm window. Please let me know if you need me to leave your order at the church.
• The bag that you receive each week is to be brought back with your next order. We have been negligent in telling new customers how this works. Don’t feel bad if you return multiple bags, it happens all the time.
• We’re into reusing and recycling. Our clean egg cartons, honey jars, paper and plastic bags, berry containers are some of the items that we can reuse. If we can’t reuse the returned items, we’ll recycle them.
• We do guarantee everything that we sell. If you ever have a problem, please let us know and we will credit your account.
• If there are other products or growers that you think should be a part of Fresh Harvest, please let me know.

Thanks for your support, and I will see you on Wednesday!

If you need to text me, my number is 615-838-0428.

Recipes


Roasted Beet and Carrot Salad with Watercress
1 pound beets, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch thick wedges
1 pound carrots, peeled and cut on bias in 1/4-inch-thick slices
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
salt and ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon TruBee honey
1 medium shallot, minced (about 3 tablespoons)
6 ounces watercress about 4 cups (or substitute if unavailable)
1. Adjust oven rack to lowest position, place large rimmed baking sheet on rack, and heat oven to 500 degrees. Toss beets and carrots with 2 tablespoons oil, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and sugar in large bowl. Remove baking sheet from oven and, working quickly, carefully transfer beets and carrots to sheet and spread in even layer. (Do not wash bowl.) Roast until vegetables are tender and well-browned on one side, 20 to 25 minutes (do not stir during roasting).
2. Meanwhile, whisk remaining tablespoon oil, vinegar, honey, shallots, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper in now-empty bowl.
3. Toss hot vegetables with vinaigrette and cool to room temperature, about 30 minutes. Stir in watercress, transfer to serving platter, and serve.
