Hopefully you ate and celebrated your way through the week--even if 2020 was a different kind of holiday than we are used to. Our staff sure brought the festive spirit. Check out Nicole, Jamie, Jordan, and Sam in this week's picture. Good times!
Farm Share Name Change Please note the name of your share size may have changed in your profile. However, even with a different name your price and the amount that you are getting each week will not change! Your 'medium' will just be called a 'small' now.
Chicken Available In case you didn't catch the announcement, frozen chicken is now available for both butcher box and farm box subscriptions. We have both whole birds as well as cut-up birds. Don't miss the chance to try them out--and send us your feedback. We would love to know what you think.
Butcher Box Schedule for New Years As mentioned in an email to butcher box members, the customization window will be moved forward 24 hours again this week. The cutoff is temporarily 8am on Thursdays so that our farmers can have off for New Years.
Bread Share Mediterra Bakehouse's Steel City Sourdough Loaf is made in the tradition of the old-style San Francisco breads. In place of commercial yeast, it’s made with a live fermented culture of flour and water (sourdough starter), which acts as a natural leavening agent. As a result, this bread requires extra time, which also helps to uncover a flavor more complex and distinct than other breads. Once baked, it has a crackling, crisp crust, a wonderful sourdough tang, and a chewy texture that pairs well with just about anything. For this loaf, we add sesame, poppy, and fennel seeds on top.
