Market News
OUR POND IS GROWING!When you visit the market, make sure you spend a little time sitting by our little farm pond. Things are really starting to take off in those waters, which are now teaming with Koi, Amers, goldfish, bluegill, perch, and other sunfish. Our resident snapping turtle might be hanging around, and we have even spotted a couple of muskrat in the back bank. Grab a bag of fish food from the market and you'll be surrounded by finned friends in no time! |
It's RAMP SeasonThe valley is green with the lush foliage of the Appalachian Ramps. Ramps are an edible bulb plant with a flavor resembling a garlic/onion mix. Both the bulb and the leaves are edible, and the flavor becomes stronger as the season progresses.
We love using ramps when cooking to spice up Italian dishes or anything you would use onions for. We also like to mince the bulbs and blend with fresh butter to make a great dip or garlic butter spread. Click here to read more about the history of this fun foragable! |
