As the polar vortex settles in over Southern Ontario and plunges us into a deep freeze, I’m happy to share a new recipe for some comfort food that will hopefully warm you up a little bit. I’m honestly not sure what took me so long to publish a crock pot recipe since I am a huge fan of preparing food in a crock pot. This is a super easy side dish to prepare and is packed with tons of flavour. Diced yellow potatoes are coated with olive oil, garlic and a variety of spices. Toss them in the crock pot and cook for 3 hours. Set out on a serving platter, garnish the spuds with fresh parsley and rosemary leaves and enjoy.

January Farming

What do farmers do in January? I’m asked this question rather often, so I prepared this collage of the 4 of us working hard at playing. RJ is developing his engineering career; Curtis pursues a new interest in watercolour painting, and I am busy perfecting the fine art of cuddling. And as for John, he seems to be the only one of us with real energy as he attends truck school to attain his AZ license. Of course, while we definitely enjoy a quieter time at the farm, we are still busy packing and delivering our potatoes to our customers and unbelievably already ramping up for the 2025 growing season. You can visit “The Faces Of Our Farm 2024” to see a video of all of us hard at work during the fall harvest.

Do you have too many leftovers after a big family gathering? I always do, and sometimes I get tired of eating reheated plates of food. My new festive leftover casserole is something completely different and is packed with flavour. The first layer is leftover stuffing. It’s covered with turkey mixed with vegetables, a thickened stock and cranberries. The final layer is mashed potatoes enhanced with sage, onion powder and thyme. Top with a few pats of butter and pop it into the oven. Casseroles are very difficult to take photos of, so trust me when I say this tastes even better than it looks.

Winter Hours

It’s indisputable. Winter has arrived in Southern Ontario. We continue to welcome the general public to stop in to pick up farm fresh produce during the week. While our sweet corn is sadly a distant memory, we continue to offer 10lb white potatoes, 10lb yellow potatoes, 10lb cooking onions, 10lb red onions and green cabbage. This produce is either grown here at the farm or sourced from local farmers. Feel free to stop in and say hello, and don’t forget your hat and gloves! You can visit “At The Door” for product pricing and directions to our farm.
