Fourth of July Holiday Farm Sale & Open House

Posted 7/3/2012 3:31pm by Leslie Cooperband or Wes Jarrell.
Yes, it's a holiday tomorrow, but we've decided to keep our farm doors open for folks to come out to the farm from 4 to 6PM. We'll have cheese (think last minute food for that potluck barbeque you're invited to), fresh veggies from Tomahnous Farm and breads, bagels, granola and biscotti from Stewart's Artisan Breads.  

Cool off with some gelato or sorbetto--single servings in a cup or a cone OR take home some pints for your eating during fireworks watching time.  In the dipping cabinet, we'll have vanilla, chocolate, rhubarb swirl, gianduja (chocolate-hazelnut), stracciatella (vanilla gelato with chocolate ganache "chips") and local plum sorbetto. Pint-wise, we've got vanilla, chocolate, hazelnut, strawberry vanilla chevre, rhubarb swirl AND rhubarb, plum and nectarine sorbettos.  

AND...Introducing Knife Sharpening by Laurence Mate

"Need a sharp knife in the kitchen? Starting tomorrow (July 4th), the old knife dude (aka Laurence Mate), who sharpens knives for Prairie Fruits Farm's kitchen, will be bringing his grindstone to the farm, so that you can get your knives sharpened while you shop for cheese, gelato and fresh produce.  Prices range from $2 for a touch up on the 4000 grit Japanese waterstone to $6 for a complete re-grinding.  Sorry--no serrated knives. And, if a good kitchen knife is something you need, Laurence will also have knives for sale.


I can't think of a better way to celebrate the fourth--goats on parade, fresh and cool local foods and a good sharp knife! See you here!
