Farmers' Market, Farm Dinners in the City and Fruit Picking

7/20/2010 6:32pm by Leslie Cooperband or Wes Jarrell
Lots going on this week, much of it in Chicago.  Tomorrow, Wednesday, July 21st, we are attending the Andersonville neighborhood farmers' market from 3-8PM. We'll be bringing fresh chevre, Prairie Dropseed (the mold-ripened ball of goat and sheep milk deliciousness), a few Angel Food, our goat milk brie, Moonglo (raw goat milk tomme with a rind washed with Moonglow pear tea) and Roxanne (raw sheep milk brebis). 
If you haven't already made reservations, there are a few seats left for the Vie Restaurant (Western Springs, IL) Farm Dinner tomorrow night featuring our farm products and our cheeses. Check out the menu in my newsletter blog from last Thursday, July 15th (www.prairiefruits.com).
Next Monday, July 26th, we're collaborating with Birchwood Kitchen for another farm-inspired dinner.
