We have some favorite recipes that we would like to share with you. At the market, people often ask us, “How do I cook this?” Well, this is how we do it, and there are many other ways as well. Look for new recipes for using our produce at the Farmers Markets as well as here. If you have one that you would like to share, please let us know!

Roasted Shallots

Shallots have a delicate and sweet onion flavor. They can be eaten raw or cooked. They’re a nice addition to a salad dressing or cooked in a braise. We’ve discovered they are amazing roasted on their own!

Leafy Greens

Greens are a staple on our farm and in our kitchen. We eat them daily- morning, noon, and night! Five of our favorite greens to eat and grow are spinach, kale, Swiss chard, bok choy, and collards.

An important part of a healthy diet, leafy greens are packed with vitamins, minerals, and fiber. A quick Google search can give you plenty of information about their nutritional contents and health benefits.

Greens are quick to cook and retain their nutrients when eaten raw or lightly cooked.
