Old99Farm Market:  Regenerating Life: film debut Mon Aug 14

Join me and my friend, Bionutrient Food Assoc Founder Dan Kittredge for a pre-release screening and discussion of the film Regenerating Life this Monday evening, August 14th. This is one of the first feature-length films to thoughtfully explain the dynamics through which the water cycle can rapidly balance climate extremes through our stewardship of the land.

Remember that connection between nutrient density and reversing climate change that I have been talking about for years? For those who want to understand how to better tell the story of the opportunities we have, not just the fears, this is a film worth watching.

Watch the Trailer
This Monday the 14th at 7pm Eastern, we will watch the first section of the film, which is about 45 minutes long, and conclude with a discussion and conversation. We will schedule subsequent events to watch the rest of the film in the following weeks.

Join the Screening

Berea Gardens:  Market open

The cantaloupe has ripened! Three weeks later than last year, but here at last. We will also have a selection of beautiful tomatoes for you to pick from the table this week. Hope to see you Wednesday.

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!
