Berries

No "Coffee & Scones" this weekend; the scone bakers and coffee brewers are headed to Maine for cooler waters. But if you happen to forget, and come by anyway, some other family members plan to have something to fill your tummies, and some warm brew of some kind.

Also there are LOTS of berries: red, blue, picked and pick-your-own. We hope to see you this weekend!

PYO

Blueberries and raspberries are now both open for pick-your-own. They're not quite at their prime yet, but if you want to wander the peaceful fields and gather a pint (or two, or three) as you do, please come!

The Bounty Begins

Local, organic beef from Bonvue Farm

In time for your summertime cookouts...Bonvue Farm's great organic, local beef is here! Look for it in the freezer compartment of the white fridge behind the PYO shed. Hamburger, sausage and stew meat. Other cuts can be ordered directly from Brian. Chicken will be available in late July.
   
We're picking raspberries daily, along with peas, tomatoes, baby carrots and onions, beautiful lettuce, and of course lots of other greens.

Be sure to look for salad fixings at Sweetie's as well.

Raspberries!

The official taste-testers at Whetstone Ledges are reporting that those red berries taste mighty fine. We'll have the first few pints for sale in the stand this weekend.

Coffee and Scones

Yes, it's true: there are ripe raspberries on the bushes which means COFFEE AND SCONES will begin this Sunday at 9 AM! Hope to see some of you fine neighbors and friends there.

And we're open!

Opening at 9 am today. Greens, garlic scapes, jams, syrup, granola, organic chicken...

And a garlic scape pesto recipe for you...perfect on that chicken!

GARLIC SCAPE PESTO

Ingredients:

• 1 cup garlic scapes, buds removed and chopped
• 1 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 cup walnuts (or another nut)
• 1 cup freshly grated parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions:

1. Place all ingredients in a food processor or blender and puree until smooth.
2. Refrigerate covered for up to two weeks. The flavor will mellow some as it sits.
