Don't forget to load up on supplies for Thanksgiving at the farmers' market this weekend. We'll have lots of great produce, including plenty of Brussels sprouts.

One of our current favorite side dishes is roasted veggies with Brussels sprouts, potatoes, and delicata squash. It's a definite for our Thanksgiving table. What's your favorite vegetable side?

We're thankful for all our customers, friends, and the great community of farmers and eaters that we have here in Vermont. We hope to see you on Saturday!

Yikes! September!

The summer seems to be pretty thoroughly over, though the Eye in the Sky claims that there's some more warm weather coming. We've gotten about to the end of the summer foods - we gave pretty much the last of the tomatoes and definitely the last of the cukes  to the CSA this week - and the fall goodies are coming in. The cherry tomatoes are the only thing still going in the greenhouse, which has been mostly taken over by drying onions and curing winter squash, but even they are starting to look tired.

We're getting ready to start on our new greenhouses - just got the building permits last week. Soon we'll rip all the tomato plants out of this house and plant some spinach and carrots, probably; the big new one will be our tomato house next year and this one will probably be our plant house, where we'll start all our seedlings. The third one will be much smaller, and probably an experimental house, a place to play with new ideas.  It's pretty exciting to contemplate the possibilities of all this new greenhouse space - even though we don't heat our greenhouses, they provide enough protection to really change the scope of what it's possible to grow up here, and we're really looking forward to exploring that a lot more in the coming seasons.
