DeForest Locally Grown Market News

Welcome to the 2015 season of DeForest Locally Grown. And Thank you again to Forest Run Farm for hosting the Pick up site at their farm on Mueller Road. This year will include Rusty Dog Coffee. Rusty Dog offers small batch roasts of 100% Arabica blends. Bauman’s Natural Meats will also be offering their products on certain weeks beginning May 17: Brats, Burger patties, bulk burger and Pork Ribs for the Memorial Weekend holiday.

Forest Run Farm will have its first offerings from the fields and hoop house: small head lettuce, spinach, baby bok choy, asparagus, rhubarb and herbs. In the next few weeks the selection will increase. Forest Run Farm also offers vegetable plants for your garden—all started at the farm and grown organically. They are not listed this week but can be picked up at the Farm on Fridays or at Hilldale Market. The selection of plants includes tomato, peppers, herbs, kale, lettuce, kohlrabi, and broccoli. Note: Plants can not be purchased using the CSA punchcard.

Orders made this week (Starting Sunday evening till Tues at midnight) can be picked up on Friday at the farm from 4-6pm until Memorial Day. Then, after Memorial Day, it is extended to 3-6pm.

Note to CSA customers:
1. CSA customers can use their punchcards at the Hilldale Farmers Market on Wed. or Sat.for Forest Run Farm veggie and fruit products.
2. Only Forest Run Farm vegetables and fruit can be paid for with your CSA punch card. Plants, eggs and coffee must be paid for in cash or check made out to Forest Run Farm LLC.
3. The CSA plan is flexible, don’t feel you have to order every week, but be sure to use your punch card before it expires!
4. If you are interested in signing up for a Farmstand CSA share please do so in the next two weeks.

If you are new to this market and have questions, please email farmer@forestrunfarm.com and we will get back to you.

How to use lovage

• Cook with lentils- saute a few leaves with onions, add lentils and cook slowly.
• Chop the leaves and add to cream cheese—use as a stuffing in a chicken breast.
• Pesto is traditionally made with basil, but can be made with most herbs. I use sorrel and lovage.
• Lovage, chopped finely, can be used on a pizza topping.
• Lovage is excellent with fish, such as salmon
• Chop the leaves in a fresh leaf and herb salad- dress with your favorite dressing.
