CSA Farmers Market:  Sweet Potato Black Bean Salad

Recipe submitted by Carolyn Doherty%

Sweet Potato Black Bean Salad
Serves 4
4 medium sweet potatoes (about 1 1/2 pounds), peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
large onion, preferably red, chopped
1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons minced fresh hot chili, like jalapeño
1 clove garlic, peeled
Juice of 2 limes
2 cups cooked black beans, drained (canned are fine)
1 red or yellow bell pepper, seeded and finely diced
1 cup chopped fresh cilantro.
1. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Put sweet potatoes and onions on a large baking sheet, drizzle with 2 tablespoons oil, toss to coat and spread out in a single layer. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast, turning occasionally, until potatoes begin to brown on corners and are just tender inside, 30 to 40 minutes. Remove from oven; keep on pan until ready to mix with dressing.
2. Put chilies in a blender or mini food processor along with garlic, lime juice, remaining olive oil and a sprinkle of salt and pepper. Process until blended.
3. Put warm vegetables in a large bowl with beans and bell pepper; toss with dressing and cilantro. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve warm or at room temperature, or refrigerate for up to a day.

Happy Tuesday, Local Loves!!

It’s quite the dreary, chilly morning for so early in October. My Cosmic soul kitchen was in operation very early with warm ovens, mega amounts of coffee to fuel me, and lots of music.

My mood, the day, what I am baking, usually determines the music I will blare from my kitchen. Today was just cold at 4am:) Where you don’t want to leave warm blankets but you know it’s what you have to do. So, I was at it, early, got a surprise Vibe on Viber from my Cosmic co-ed who is studying in Italy. It was nice to have an early chat. But, it made me miss her, terribly. It made me miss other friends who don’t live near, and it made me seek out the music that comforts me in these times of bittersweet memories in early mornings.

The band who I used, today, in this Weblog, is that kind of band. Sweet tunes, amazing voices, soulful verses. Just music that speaks to you in the dark morning of baking, missing people, and waking up…

These lyrics also speak to me about how much I love being able to fall back on the friends who are near me, here, my business, and this local love of a market. I take great comfort in knowing that this little market just continues it’s growth, continues it’s journey, continues to build from what was once a vision. These are the things that warm my heart, make me proud, and make me excited to see where the next turn will take us!

We are having an AMAZING market, this week!!! We have this whole day, today, until 10pm, tonight, to take it to a whole new level!!! Remember, we are trying to break our already amazing record so that I can proudly announce our numbers as I speak about this market at the upcoming State Of The Plate!!

You all make me smile…you make me excited to watch the orders all rush in…it’s such a love feeling:)

Take some time, get your orders in, and let us put some comfort in your week by taking the stress away of your weekly shopping. It’s a click, and then it’s just a pick up:) You can do it!! You’ve got this!!

Peace and Love,
Cosmic Pam

Old99Farm Market:  Old 99 Farm, Week of Oct 5 2014

The week before Thanksgiving will likely have you thinking about what your family dinner will look like. Well, I have no turkey but what about the vegetables? Many varieties of squash, root veggies, and greens, all waiting here for you!

I’m reading up on the connection between ruminant livestock and global warming, desertification, and carbon sequestration. See this link for many papers, youtubes and research summaries:
http://bio4climate.org/resources/, in particular: Allan Savory’s milestone 2013 TED Talk, How to fight desertification and reverse climate change.

New Field Farm's Online Market:  ginger and more

Greetings,

This is going out early this week because it’s easier this time of year to know earlier in the week what we’ll have for Friday.

Carrots are now going for $2 per pound without the tops.

Also, I want to mention the FRESH GINGER again in case you missed the email I sent. Hopefully, it’s still in your inbox so you can check out the details. In brief, it’s $12 per pound (the same price I’m buying it for from the organic farm in Amherst, Ma. – the ginger is a non-profit venture!). You can order in 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, or 1 lb. or more increments. PLEASE SEND ME YOUR ORDER BY EMAIL. AND PLEASE ORDER BY TUESDAY NIGHT (tomorrow).

I plan to pick it up Wednesday morning and keep it in our cooler for the Friday order.

Enjoy the beautiful fall.

Tim
