This Weekend at the Farm



Yes, It's true, FREE BABY BEAR PUMPKIN for purchases of $20 or more! These are very efficient pumpkins. They are cute, they are delicious to eat, and they have "naked" seeds which means the seeds have no hull so are easily roasted and eaten! You can use the whole thing. There's no hurry in cutting into them either; they will last for months (you may have to dust them once in awhile!) Come on in! We have slowed downed immensely and it's lonely in the White Barn. Here's a little incentive.

More incentive: Join the Frequent Buyer Program if you haven't yet. It's FREE! You get a card, which we keep at the Farm Stand. Every time you spend $10 you get a punch. With 20 punches you get a 10% discount!

The Heirloom Dried Beans are being cleaned up and we have more varieties now at the Farm Stand. We have a few Mitla Black Tepary, lots of Swedish Brown, Santa Maria Piquinto, Petaluma Gold Rush, Cranberry, Alubias de Tolosa and more that I don't know yet. They are beautiful and cook up quickly since they are so fresh.

The end of the Fresh Shelling Beans is here if you want to try them before going on to the dried ones. We have the Black Coco and Cranberry! Here's what else: Broccoli, Cauliflower, Kales of many varieties, Chard, Onions, Garlic, Shallots, many Italian Greens such as Pan di Zucchero, Traviso, and Castle Franco, and more, Fennel, Kohlrabi, Celery, Celery Root, Carrots, Beets, Parsnips, Potatoes, Parsley Root, Leeks, Salsify, Jerusalem Artichokes, Rutabaga? maybe, hmmmmmmm what else? BRUSSELS SPROUTS, LETTUCE, LOTS OF BUTTERNUT, ACORN, DELICATA and other Winter Squashes, sweet, tender Lettuce and is that all???

Here's a link for a delicious Butternut Squash Soup using our squash and chipotles: http://www.tierravegetables.com/recipes.html

Wait! There's More! Pickles that are crunchy and a little spicy, Dried Chiles, Chipotles, Powders and other Dried products such as the amazing Smoked Onions, Heirloom Corn Meal for biscuits,
polenta, bread, Chile Jams, Hot Sauces and I think that's all.

Tierra Vegetables Farm Stand is OPEN TUESDAY - FRIDAY 11 - 5:30 AND SATURDAY 10 - 4.....RAIN OR SHINE!

Hope to see you.

Thanks,

Evie
