Little Rosies

I’m so excited to introduce all of you to my “Little Rosies!”  I’ve been patiently waiting for them to grow for months now, and they’re finally ready to sell at the farm stand.  My novelty potatoes will add an element of colour and fun to your dinner plate (plus they complement our sweet corn perfectly.)  These pale, pink-skin potatoes were hand-planted and hand-harvested.  They will be available at the farm stand for the next few weekends.  I suggest wrapping them in foil and cooking them on the BBQ to maintain their subtle colouring. You can visit “At The Door” for directions to our farm.

Today is National Potato Day, so why not swing by our farm stand and grab some freshly dug, white or yellow potatoes? Then you can celebrate the humble spud by having our new potatoes for breakfast, lunch and dinner!  We have beautiful, home grown sweet corn as well as fresh produce from local farms to further please your palate.  If you’re looking for inspiration for tasty, creative potato dishes, feel free to visit my “Recipe” page for many original potato and sweet corn dishes.  Happy Potato Day!

Please welcome the newest addition to our family here at the farm! Young Riley is just 9 weeks old.  He travelled here all the way from Mount Pleasant, Michigan.  He’s a pure bred Jack Russel terrier, and he has tons of energy to burn already.  In fact, we may need to buy a bigger farm for him!  Stay tuned for more news about our little guy as he lives the #LifeoRiley here at the farm.

Food Day Canada

Today is Food Day Canada where we celebrate the abundance of farm fresh, local produce available this time of year in Canada. The theme is “sharing,” so I’m reposting seven original recipes for interesting new potato and sweet corn dishes.  These recipes were all developed and taste tested in my kitchen.  New potatoes and sweet corn are available at our farm stand as well as gorgeous tomatoes, onions and cabbage from local farms.  You can visit “Freezing Sweet Corn” to see how you can enjoy the taste of summer in the dead of winter.  Click on the links below to print or download the recipes of your choice. Bon Appétit!
