Wednesday Open House Tomorrow from 4 to 6PM--lots of goodies

Posted 7/31/2012 5:55pm by Leslie Cooperband or Wes Jarrell.

We watched the clouds to the east drop some rain only a few miles away, while we received lots of thunder and enough moisture to barely darken the color of the soil. Nonetheless, we're forging onward, and we'll have lots of goodies for you to try and buy at tomorrow's farm open house.  Of course, there will be cheese (chevre, several bloomy rind cheeses, some Moonglo and Roxanne and maybe some Huckleberry Blue and Pecorino wedges).  We'll have a few dozen of our hens' eggs for sale and maybe a few pints of blackberries.  Our light and floral first-extraction honey will be available in 1/2 pint and pint jars too. Of course, there will be gelato (both pints and single servings--dipping cabinet offerings are indicated with an asterisk below):

  • Vanilla
  • Chocolate*
  • Hazelnut
  • Mint*
  • Strawberry
  • Rhubarb Swirl
  • Plum sorbetto
  • Honey Lavender
  • Peach sorbetto*
  • Cucumber lime mint sorbetto
  • Vanilla Chevre
  • Blackberry gelato NEW THIS WEEK, MADE WITH OUR VERY OWN BLACKBERRIES
  • Lemon Verbena-Thyme--NEW FLAVOR, COME OUT AND TRY IT*
  • Chocolate Mint
  • Tomato Creme: AN EXPERIMENTAL FLAVOR, COME TRY IT AND LET US KNOW WHAT YOU THINK

 

Tomahnous Farm will be back with gorgeous veggies and beautiful cut flowers. Stewart's Artisan Breads will have bagels, breads, biscotti and granola for sale too.  Laurence Mate, the knife dude, will be here to sharpen your knives while you shop, visit with the goats and eat gelato. HE WON'T BE HERE THE SECOND WEEK OF AUGUST, SO IF YOU HAVE KNIVES THAT NEED SHARPENING PLEASE COME OUT TOMORROW. There are only four farm open houses left this summer, so if you haven't had a chance to make it out yet, now is the time. The goats will be happy to see you.
