Harvest and Cook's Notes

Plato's Harvest Organic Farm

Certified Organic Sweet Corn! That will be this weeks' cry! I should have a good amount, and if I planned right, should be having it for several weeks. Farming gets interesting this time of year, tomatoes are begging to be tied, garlic screaming to be harvested, bugs needing to be killed, and the weeds... ugh. And the rain... ugh. And then I blow a brake line in the truck, on the way to market with a trailer behind me, heavy with produce, and the priority list gets shuffled. It's only the excitement of possibilities that keeps me going - I have a massive patch of watermelons, weed free and sizing up, promising sweet reward in another couple of weeks.  I'll be bringing certified organic sweet corn!, kale, chard, beets, carrots, cabbage, eggs, new potatoes, green garlic, huge, green sweet onions, cucumbers, and summer squash. I also have a fresh batch of whole chickens, averaging four pounds.  And, after six years, I've raised the price on eggs. My meat chickens and layers are raised on pasture and certified organic grain, which costs twice as much as conventional grain. It's the way that I want to raise and eat chicken and eggs, but it is very expensive. - Know your farmer, don't take vegetables from strangers!

Thanks for your support. - Meet me at the Market!

Jenny's Bread 

Back by popular demand: CHEESEBURGER POCKETS! Nuggets of pizza dough filled with a mixture of Dufort Farm grass-fed ground beef, Plato's Harvest and Web of Life garlic and Narragansett Creamery's Atwell's Gold cheese. Better get in line early for those-they'll go quicker than the chocolate buns!
