Weekly update--Boalsburg FM moves outside this week!!!
What's new outside?? The early spring crops are all doing well, and the strawberries are in full blossom with lots of little green berries! Look for them in 3-4 weeks. Did you know that if you choose one field crop to eat organically--it's strawberries! Strawberries have such thin skins so, unlike most fruits, strawberries will absorb whatever is sprayed on them. Conventional farmers fumigate their fields with poison to kill weeds and bugs, and usually spray their berry crop with chemical fungacides and pesticides throughout the growing season--we don't!! The USDA says these sprays are safe, but.......HARVEST SHAK - The Harvest Shak is now open every Wednesday, Friday and Saturday from 10-7. New this season will be locally roasted coffee (we couldn't keep up with roasting our own) - this coffee is truly a treat to sip. Also new will be a small selection of dry goods - healthy pastas, sweetners, salt, etc. These, of course, are in addition to our products as well as other local producer items such as honey, maple syrup, jams, and pottery. We will be putting prepared foods (soups, salads, quiche, stuffed pitas, etc.), in the Shak, however the amounts will be limited, so we encourage pre-orders to be sure you get the items you want - pre-orders will be ready and bagged in the Shak and can be picked up during open hours. For directions to The Shak click here scroll to the bottom of the page and look for the bubble in the middle of the map.
What's new in the kitchen?? Had a great visit with a world reknown chef from Argentina who has been working with a local fishing resort. He taste-tested some lacto-fermented vegetables (loved them, by the way!), toured the root cellar, greenhouses and gardens. He is a strong supporter of eating fresh, local and seasonal foods. We will be working with him to supply produce and prepared foods when he visits the US. This is certainly an exciting opportunity for us!
Where to find us: Tuesdays from 2-6 in Boalsburg at PA Military Museum, click on the logo above to find out more about the outdoor farmers' market! If you have never visited this market it is a great way to spend an afternoon--lots of vendors and plenty of free parking. Fridays we make deliviers for pre-orders in the parking lot between Uncle Joe's Woodshed and Everything Natural in Altoona from 3:00-3:30. Orders may also be picked up at the Harvest Shak Wednesday, Fridays or Saturdays from 10-7. Please remember that orders for Tuesday/Wednesday need to be placed by noon on Monday, and Friday/Saturday orders are due by Wednesday evening.
