If you’re drowning in tomatillos like we are, or you picked up a bunch at the farmers market and don’t know for sure what to do with them- this recipe is fabulous, SO good! And the salsa created is great on its own, I’m whipping up more salsa today without completing the whole recipe. Highly recommend!

A tomatillo base baked in a cast iron pan with crumbled feta and topped with a heavy dose of cilantro and ready in 30 minutes!

It’s Minnesota Garlic Festival weekend! We are headed to Hutchinson for tomorrow’s festivities. And to celebrate we thought we’d share with you our biggest and smallest garlic heads of the season 🤣 if you’re in to garlic, this is the perfect event to geek out over rare varieties, eat garlic themed foods (including ice cream), watch cooking demos, and so much more!

We're excited for Riverwalk Market Fair's RMF @ Greenvale market today from 3 - 6:30pm next door to Greenvale Elementary! We'll be there with bells on! (but not literally 🛎) We're planning to bring our salad mix, radishes, rainbow chard, kale, garlic scapes, cowboy candy, garlic scape grinders, and more! It should be a great afternoon with live music, kids' activities, lots of vendors, and even a locally made ice cream truck!

We accept SNAP/EBT, Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program checks, and PoP tokens at our booth!

This is the first bowl of salad I’ve harvested just for our family so far this year. We’ve sold a lot, we’ve shared some at potlucks, but we just haven’t had enough to supply ourselves. This is one of the silly realities of farming sometimes. I am SO excited to eat our glorious salad mix with leaf lettuce, spinach, mustard greens, baby kale, lots of arugula, and tatsoi for the next many weeks! We’ll be back at RMF @ Greenvale in June to share our veggies with all of you again, but until then, they’re all mine! 🤣🥬🫜

We have sore muscles after our first major weeding project of 2025. Luckily many hands make light work! Grateful for these helpers and for the perfect weather for outdoor chores today.

Plant babies!!!!! If you’ve been wondering when to plant your garden, now is a great time for hardy plants like radishes, greens, carrots, beets, broccoli, cauliflower, lots of herbs, snow and sugar snap peas and more! Just keep the tomatoes, peppers, melons, and squashes inside a little longer! Last year we put in a new perennial garden with more rhubarb, horseradish, raspberries, asparagus, and strawberries. It’s so exciting to see things emerging this year and knowing they survived the very cold winter! Spring is full of the joy of new life and the promise of nourishing food right around the corner. 🫛🥦🥬🥕🧄🧅
