Market News
Hello!
I think that my favorite crop to harvest is potatoes, but only if it’s a good year. You never know what’s under the ground. We dug up about 80 lbs. of Red Gold potatoes today and it was close to perfect. There were lots of potatoes and the ground was ideal for digging. They are now listed on the Market page.
I neglected to update the quantity of Fresh Harvest eggs yesterday. There are now plenty available.
The Market will remain open until Tuesday evening for you to place an order for this week.
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.
*PayPal payments have to be manually added to your account. There will be a delay to crediting your account due to me needing to take time to do the bookkeeping. I also have to go to each account with cash or check payments. These are sometimes delayed by procrastination or being busy. You can still place an order even though it may cause your account to be “overdrawn”. There is no penalty for going into the minus column. Sometimes I’m a little slow in getting to the bank to make deposits, but it eventually happens.
• 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
Grilled Merlot Steak with Sage Butter
4 tablespoons salted butter, room temperature
2 tablespoons minced sage leaves
1 merlot steak (about 1 1/2 pounds)
sea salt
fresh ground pepper
Ahead of time, mix sage into soft butter. Press into a mold or small, straight glass jar and set in fridge to chill.
Set steak on counter and to come to room temperature.
Prepare a hot grill. Allow coals to get hot enough that you can’t hold you hand four inches above them for more than a few seconds. Bank coals to one side of the grill to create a zone of high heat and a zone of indirect heat.
Just before grilling, sprinkle merlot steak on both sides with sea salt and pepper; lightly press seasoning into surface. Set steak over hot coals, grill 2 – 3 minutes, flip, and grill 2 – 3 minutes longer. More steak over indirect heat until internal temperature reaches 130 degrees F for rare or 140 degrees F for medium-rare (steaks pictured are medium-rare). Rest 5 minutes.
With a very sharp chef’s knife, slice steaks into thin (1/4-inch thick) slices, dot with butter, and serve immediately.
