Great surprise at our last CSA Pick-up of the season at Wolfe Spring Farm!
And the winner of the pumpkin is…..SAM
Sam on the Great Pumpkin: half his height and double the weight
We knew that we wouldn’t have pumpkins in our pick-up this year as June had said they lost their crop earlier this summer. But not ones to disappoint, June & Jim picked up a giant one at another local farm in Sheffield. Here’s the little guy sitting atop his pumpkin (I know, gratuitous shot of Sam)
What I’ve got on tap thus far:
- Freekeh Pilaf revisited
- Roasted butternut squash
- Homemade vegetable stock (have not made in ages and so happy to prepare and freeze)
- Crispy Caramelized Brussel Sprouts
- Leek & Shiitake Mushroom Risotto
And a complete snapshot of today’s last pick- up:
Last 2012 Pick-up at Wolfe Spring Farm
Thank you, Jim & June for a great season! We can’t wait til next May.
Please pass along your recipe for caramelized Brussel sprouts. I recently made them using mark Bittman’s recipe. The caramelized version sounds delicious!
Absolutely. Will post on it shortly
