Taste the Flavors!

Jump into spring and get a taste of local foods this weekend! Join us this Sunday, April 7th, from 11-3pm, and bring your plate and fork to Flavors of the Valley at Hartford High School in White River Jct. This is the 18th annual celebration of local foods organized by Vital Communities, with over 50 farm and food-related vendors. We're very pleased to be part of this tasting event that brings together Upper Valley chefs, farmers, and specialty food producers. Pre-Buy advanced tickets for entry from 11am-12pm. General admission 12pm-3pm.

On Sunday we'll offer a taste of our Powerkraut varieties - original sauerkraut, carrot kraut, caraway kraut, kimchi, and our newest, and very popular, turmeric kraut. You can try a nibble of spicy radish micro greens, or sample something new and unusual with our crisp Belgian endive. 

We're also harvesting some amazing over-wintered spinach from our hoop houses. It's dark green, sweet, nutty, and oh so delicious! You can pick up a bag at Flavors of the Valley this Sunday, and look for it on the menu at Market Table in Hanover and Ariana's Restaurant in Lyme later this week.

Our greenhouse is filling up fast with beautiful vegetable seedlings full of potential and vigor for the new growing season. We can't wait to taste those first buttery leaves of bib lettuce, pungent fresh herbs, and crunchy stalks of asparagus in just a few short weeks!
