From Left to Right: Mathias, Daniel, Stella, Caroline, Lily, Alicia, Dennis. On our way to PA for some (quick) RnR. We are back now!
Have you noticed the color in our milk in the last few months? Jimmy of:http://www.regengraze.com/ has taught me well! If you have not tried our milk lately, buy one and compare the color and cream line to anything out there. I think we are the best value by far and it not only tastes good but it shows!
Meet Your Farmer in Orlando date is now set for September 17th. Alicia and I will travel to Orlando and share about what, why and how we do what we do. Contactsteve@farmfreshdirect2u.com for details of the event. Steve has been taking our farm goods as well as several other farm goods to the Orlando area for over 10 years now and he actually apprenticed with us all the way back when we farmed in Dade City so we are almost like family.
We are enjoying having that extra day to pack orders. We hope the adjustment to moving up the order deadline hasn’t been too much of a hassle. We are trying so hard to have a life here as well as bring you the most nutrient dense foods possible for the healing of your body, prevention of disease and the growing of amazingly healthy children. We spare no expense to do so but we also value family and quality time together. This order deadline really helps us not feel so much pressure as order day arrives.
We recycle. Plastic grocery bags are needed for meat items. Glass or plastic quart containers (only the ones that come from our farm or similar, no other labels please) are seriously needed now. Lily loves putting her goat milk into glass but if we do not get the glass back and we run out we will use plastic. Also our cardboard egg cartons are reusable and we save so much when you return them. Put recyclables into the cooler that you pick up your goods with then when you get to the stop there they are to give to our drivers.
We are running out of chicken from Eden farm and have long since been out of FCF chicken but are starting our fall run so in 60 days we will be stocked again, thank you for your patience. A new apprentice may be taking up the whole chicken enterprise and taking it to another level so look for possible new things here.
New Product! Gingered pears, aahh, you have never tasted anything quite like this. Made by our good friends at Great Mercy Ranch they are delicious for breakfast over yogurt or smothered in cream, as a side with sausage or bacon with grits is one of our favorites or on top of a piece of heavily buttered sourdough toast. Each quart jar is a perfect combination of organic pears(homegrown), pineapple, ginger, sea salt and demerara sugar. A delicious condiment for pork or smother pork chops or ham steak with them and then cook for a really tasty main dish. Put them over a bed of toasted sourdough bread cumbs and then top with some sourdough bread crumbs toasted in a little (or a lot) of butter with a little honey or maple syrup for a sweet topping and bake for a yummy cobbler type dessert. For those wondering about the sweetener, Demerara has a natural caramel-like flavor that hasn’t been refined out, which lends a warm caramel flavor. Demerara sugar is also referred to as Turbinado sugar in many markets, which has more to do with how the sugar is processed in turbines, than where it originates. We hope you will try our Gingered Pears, we are certain you won't regret it and will be checking the calendar for them next year. Get them while they last! $12/qt.
