Other farms

This year, because of the many friends of Denniston Hill who are coming up to volunteer their time to help garden and build our new barn studio, we bought a farm share from Gorzinsky Ornery Farms out in Callicoon. Gorzinsky is a pioneer in local, sustainable farming. It's been nice to pick up these beautiful boxes if produce every Tuesday. Not only are they delicious, they give us an opportunity to see what is growing (and not growing) in other parts if the county. This week's box included list of lettuce, rocket/arugula, green shallots, green leeks, spinach, chives, cilantro, and bok choi. They seem to be having trouble with their weed control strategies and their pea crop failed (ours went in later and, touch wood, seems pretty healthy) but otherwise the produce looks amazing and tastes even better.
