If you are looking for great recipes with Kale start here EatingWell.com. In this week’s basket from Sunny Hill we received kale, lettuce, green beans, blueberries, cucumbers, zucchini and summer squash. I went blueberry picking today with the kids to Spring Valley Farm in Conowingo. The peaches were ripe, too and I made their first […]

So, the spinach season is coming to an end and you have already had spinach & strawberry salad, spinach frittata, spinach quiche, cream of spinach soup and honestly at this point you are just spinach’ed out.

Honestly, if I didn’t have other obligations I would have already driven up there to buy some. I LOVE cherries. I try and cool things off for the summer and […]

Today is a big day at my house. It is the first day that Sunny Hill will be delivering their produce to about twenty families that have chosen to pick up from my home. Jean has already sent out a welcome email and a list of what’s inside the baskets. I cleaned out the garage […]

I was giddy today. I ran to Broom’s Bloom Dairy and Brad’s Produce to pick up sausage, butter and vegetables for tonight’s dinner. What did I find? Tomatoes! From Brad’s! Wahoo!
