Fresh Harvest, LLC:  Fresh Harvest for June 2




Market News

Hello!

When speaking to my fellow farmers, I try to avoid talking about the weather, but what else is there to talk about? Sure could use some rain or sure is hot, always generates very fascinating conversation. The good news is that most farmers have irrigation and we can withstand the semi-drought that we’re currently experiencing. Freshly harvested potatoes are so much better than what you can get at the grocery. Rocky Glade Farms has two offerings of potatoes this week. It seems to have been the perfect weather this spring for potatoes.

Other new veggie items include purple and green kohlrabi, daikon radishes and fresh basil. There are plenty of cucumbers.

Bountiful Blessings Farm has some beautiful bouquets and straight runs of Sunflowers and Forget Me Nots.

Henosis has listed Golden Oyster Mushrooms which coincides with this week’s Recipe.

Bear Creek Farms has Shish Kabobs, 35 day dry aged filet of sirloin, Hot Dogs and Merlot Steaks all at a reasonable price.

Wedge Oak Farms has a great selection of sausages including: Artisan Bacon Cheddar Chives Links which sounds delicious.

Dozen Bakery cookies and breads, eggs, granola, honey, and coffee are in abundance.

Hemp Honey and Sorghum are available under Honey.

You have until Tuesday night to place your order.
Thanks for your support, and I will see you on Wednesday!

Recipes


Sauteed Mushrooms with Mustard and Parsley

1 ¼ pounds mushrooms
¼ cup water
½ teaspoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1 shallot, minced
¼ teaspoon table salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 ½ tablespoons cider vinegar
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
½ cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

1. Cook mushrooms and water in 12-inch non-stick skillet over high heat, stirring occasionally, until skillet is almost dry and mushrooms begin to sizzle, 4 to 8 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-high. Add oil and toss until mushrooms are evenly coated. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until mushrooms are well browned, 4 to 8 minutes longer. Reduce heat to medium. 2. Push mushrooms to sides of skillet. Add butter to center. When butter has melted, add shallot, salt, and pepper to center and cook, stirring constantly, until aromatic, about 30 seconds. Add vinegar and mustard and stir mixture into mushrooms. Cook, stirring frequently, until liquid has evaporated, 1 to 2 minutes. Add broth and cook, stirring occasionally, until glaze is reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Stir in parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve.

CLG:  Opening Bell: Squash, Potatoes, Cucumbers, Pork!


Good afternoon!
It’s been a wild and emotional week with flood waters rising in Faulkner County and beyond. Cedar Rock Ridge is located in the same Treasure Hills subdivision that you may have heard about in the news. Carissa and I are not having water issues but several of our neighbors have lost their homes. Hopefully the water will crest Monday or Tuesday, but it will still be several weeks before all the water recedes and the heavy work of clean-up and rebuilding begins. Arkansans are resilient and together we will return to normalcy.

Near-perfect springtime weather has brought on a bounty of delicious, locally grown vegetables. Try to incorporate yellow squash, zucchini squash, potatoes, garlic, lettuce and others in every meal this week. Our growers work very hard every day to bring you the most nutritious food around.

Two words: Wickles. Friday.

Bradford Valley Farm has whole chicken, chicken tenders, drumsticks, and … PORK: bacon, chops, ham, ground, and roasts. Time to plan something grilled for dinner one night soon. Great food, produced locally!

Be sure to SEARCH for your favorite items using the search field. We have over 650 items available now!

Most items are listed by 6pm Sunday, but check back again before the market closes Tuesday night to see if any other items are ready to be harvested for you! Eat fresh! Eat local! Eat for better health!

And save your eggshells throughout the week for the laying hens! :-)

The market is now OPEN for orders. Click here to start shopping:
