The Funny Farm

The Funny Farm We start our garden plants from non gmo seeds and feature heirloom tomatoes. Pest, fung, or herbicides are NOT our friends. Our motto is "eat to live".

The Funny Farm is where we are thrilled to toil our days away sustainably growing, organic, delicious fruits, veggies, herbs, chickens, bee's, making fermented kombucha and baking sourdough breads. Organic, biodynamic and sustainable is our way to grow. We have entertaining chickens that eat non gmo feed and are out to pasture most days. We never use chemicals on our bee's; they love organic sugar

! Everyday is an adventure, especially with our 2 Yorkie’s. "Let thy food be thy medicine and let thy medicine be thy food" sound advice from Hippocrates, father of medicine.

Lunch today! A quick simmering pot of healthy GREEN LENTIL soup! One of my fav’s, made with onions, carrots, celery, wild Turkey stock, fresh thyme, curry powder and a country ham bone. So full of flavor!!! Lentils are full of fiber, iron and potassium. You might also try red or brown lentils, or all three colors together 😋.

Ollie and Oats’ first outing in their stroller! Through the enchanted forest trail, around the serene emerald pond, under the wisteria to the grand pavilion. They seemed to enjoy the sunshine and cool breeze. A new friend was made, a frog hopped up to greet them 🐸.

Get back to basics….. baking bread, the staff of life. Today I made 100% sprouted whole wheat yeast loaves. Baking bread is therapeutic, saves$, more nutritious, lets you choose the ingredients, has superior flavor and texture, and is so self satisfying.
The best kitchen aroma therapy!
It’s a creative expression resulting in artisinal food. Warning! It is addictive 😋 🍞 🧈

Sunday dinner, Collard greens picked from my cold frame today!, braised pork belly and homemade buttermilk corn bread drizzled with hot honey…. good old fashioned country vittles with plenty of pot liquor to soak that corn bread.

Classic grilled cheese and tomato soup, can’t beat my favorite childhood lunch ☺️! Back then it was Campbells soup and white Wonder bread, today the jar of “full of summer flavor” tomatoes from my garden turned into a rich silky smooth soup. The sandwich was on my homemade Amish white bread with a big chunk of real butter in the cast iron skillet to make a crispy double cheesy perfect companion to the soup. Even the simplest of homemade meals always, always makes my tummy smile 😋.

Recipe:
1 quart jar canned tomatoes
1 medium onion, chopped
1/4 cup cream
1/2 tsp Real salt
1/2 tsp black pepper
Sauté onion in a medium pan with 1 Tbl olive oil till translucent, then add tomatoes, salt/ pepper and simmer about 10 minutes. Puree soup, return to pan and swirl in the cream.
Too quick and simple not to try it!!!

What better way to repurpose stale cranberry orange rolls than to bake a classic Old Fashioned Bread Pudding with Brandy Sauce!!!
Rich, warm and gooey comfort food at its best on this dreary day. It’s good for the soul 🤗

Soups on!!! Used some of our wild turkey stock with lots of garden rosemary and thyme. Cut a piece of my rustic white bread for the grilled cheese sandwich. It’s soup and sweater weather folks 🥶.

Busy morning! Made butter from fresh raw cream, as a bonus, after you scoop up your creamy sweet butter what’s left is buttermilk!
Keeping to an old Irish preservation method I buttered my fresh eggs. Roll the egg with a small amount of butter in your hand to coat and seal the egg shell. They keep in the fridge for 6 months and are considered a delicacy.
Not done yet! On to fermented honey cranberries, good for gut health ( dont forget the gut is where your immune system is)
2 cups roughly chopped raw cranberries, grated fresh ginger, cinnamon stick, juice of 1 orange and the rind and finally a whole clove or two. Place in a mason jar in a dark corner with a loose lid for about a week to ferment. Check the jar daily, when you see small bubbles forming in the honey go ahead and taste. Put in the fridge to slow the fermenting down or leave out to increase the ferment. The honey will turn red and be runny.
Truly delicious!!!

It’s time again to make FIRE CIDER, the cold & flu tonic recipe from Rosemary Gladstar, the godmother of Herbalism!
Good for you and even tastes good 😋. So good, I use it to dress salads. Start now because it ages for 3 weeks as the apple cider vinegar gently pulls all the medicinal components out of the veggies and herbs.
