Fall Greetings Farmsharers,
The maple trees that sprinkle the woods behind the farm are providing some bright autumn colors to our farm pallet these days. The mud puddles that my toddler loves to bathe in have finally returned to our terrain after months of dry dusty roads. Soups have been simmering daily and ovens are toasty with vegetables roasting. Some recent soup highlights have been: minestrone, cauliflower and cheese, and creamy potato and vegetable soups (puréed soups with potatoes are a favorite). By the way, how about those beautiful intergalactic purple potatoes some of you received in your last share? A special variety called Purple Viking that we just can't get over- the looks, the taste, and the texture are top notch! (Some folks also got Benji potatoes or Caribe potatoes- also delicious!).
We hope you enjoy these fall flavors as much as we do!
Anna
