Hi All,
I've been away for a few weeks (having a baby!) but I'm back and there's lots happening in and around the farm.
So its a week off for the farm - no pick ups. But veggies are starting to make appearances - eggplant, frying peppers, cherry tomatoes yum - yum!! Everyone is working hard to recover and uncover the fields from the thriving crop of weeds but as you might have learned last week - a weed is usually a misunderstood plant. So many of them are good for food and or medicine and quite often the foods we eat are one of the first forms of medicine. Healthy foods in and a healthy body, mind and soul!
Hmmm...... I'm thinking we might need to explore this a little more later in the week - food as medicine better then a spoon full of sugar!
One other reminder - when your stopping by for your pick- up take the opportunity to harvest some herbs. Herbs grow best with regular harvesting (as a wild plant they would be nibbled on by animals regularly - this causes them to grow fuller an lusher) So play they part of nibbling animal and take home some tasty herbs to cook with and enjoy.
Talk to you soon,
The Farm Foodie
