Old99Farm Market: Old 99 Farm, week of July30 2023
The tomato lineup is filling out, most varieties now with ripe fruit. Try a mix and match combination for an interesting table display like this.
Last week we showcased the Gold Medal variety, this week it’s Kellogg’s Breakfast.
Tomato Kellogg’s Breakfast tomatoes are very large, beefsteak-type tomatoes that often reach 1-2 pounds in weight. The fruits have a bright orange peel and oblate flattened shape. The taste is nicely balanced between sweet and tangy. The large fruits ripen late season. is known for its sweet flavor that tends to be well-balanced with a tangy acidic taste. Often considered one of the best-tasting tomatoes, these rich tomatoes have a smooth texture, making them perfect for enjoying fresh; very good for enjoying fresh on sandwiches or cubed in salads. They add a bright orange color to bruschetta and to chopped salsa. Kellogg’s Breakfast Tomato is an heirloom tomato variety that potentially originated in West Virginia and discovered by Darrell Kellogg of Michigan (hence the name). It is not a modern-bred cultivar or hybrid.
Cukes for pickling now available, in 6L baskets. If you want more pls let us know a week in advance.
Currants are finished for this season, but still have Jostaberries and Mulberries.

Adam ElSioufi offers his greetings to the Old 99 Farm community.
My name is Adam El Sioufi but you can call me farmer Adam if you’d like.
I have been working with Ian since the end of May, and am grateful for the opportunity to help steward the land and care for the animals here. I have met some of you and look forward to meeting the rest of you and sharing a friendly hello if we get the chance.
I have been growing food for close to a decade, having established and maintained several edible gardens for when I lived in Toronto, and I have been farming for over 3 years now.
I have set out on a path of deeper connection with the soil and nourishing food which led me to start my own Community Supported Agriculture project. I feel passionate about this journey and strive to connect more people to their food and share this experience with the greater community. In 2020 I started up a Equilibrium Acres CSA on leased land, after 2 years I started looking for a place to farm longer term and was fortunate to meet Ian at the Guelph Organic Conference where we spoke and exchanged contacts. We reconnected a few months later and discussed the possibility of collaborating and I am excited for what the future has in store.
Hope to see you soon on the farm,
Adam
Healthy eating,
Ian, Cami and Adam

Lathemtown Farm Fresh Market: This Week at the Market
Good morning! School is about to start and the grocery stores are setting out pumkin decorations. I guess fall is around the corner LOL!!! We are definitely makng transitions here around the farm too. Our greens beds have suffered with the heat and the bugs so we are pulling them out today, amending the soil and will replant more greens in another area. While we already have had white pumpkins coming in since spring, we will be planting big orange ones for fall harvest.
Our okra was doing so well until the deer found a way to them. I have a few still producing so hoping they give us a few baskets each week!
Have a great start to the school year! Hoping Union Hill reopens now too!

Rus-T-Acres: All our Black Angus Beef is USDA Certified pasture-raised:
Highlighting some of our products this week.
Chuck Roast is cut from the shoulder and neck region of the animal. used for pot roast or, when cubed, stew, because the connective tissue melts as the chuck braises and self-bastes the beef, making it very tender.
Double Ground Beef we chose this blend because of the tender, juicy, flavorful outcome of the product when it is cooked. It is a great blend for Hamburger steaks, chili, soups, and numerous other recipes.
Medium seasoned pork sausage has the perfect blend of sage and pepper to earn the medium status. It also has enough fat for frying up perfectly. I fry my sausage and then use the grease for making my breakfast gravey or for seasoning my cornbread batter.
Some of our produce this week:
White Patty Pan Squash, AKA 10 toes look like the yellow sunburst patty pans but they are white. They taste more like a zucchini but are a little sweeter. They can be prepared in a variety of ways. Cut the top off like a pumpkin, remove the seeds, and stuff them with whatever you like, and then bake, broil, or steam them. You can cut them up and fry or sautee them.
Sunburst Patty Pan Squash produces glossy buttercup yellow, scalloped edge squash that has a mild, buttery flavored tender white flesh. They are also referred to as 10 toes because each one has 10 scallops. It is a fun food to work with and can be prepared in a variety of ways. You can cut the top off like a pumpkin, remove seeds, and stuff with anything you would like and then bake them or steam them on the grill, fry them, sautee them. Just any way you want to cook them will be good.
Japanese Eggplant: prepare in various ways including grilling, which will give them a smoky flavor!
