Welcome back to the blog -

This weekend we are participating in the Slow Food Farm tour on Sunday. Slow foods is an organization that educates people about how their food choices affect the rest of the world and is dedicated to supporting and celebrating the food traditions of the many cultures living in the United States. To find out more about this non-profit organization visit thier website at: www.slowfoodphoenix.org

Are these weeds crazy or what? We are working hard to keep them knocked down but they are fighters and keep coming back for more.

Okay - so we get asked "What's the best time to come to the farmstand when it is heavily stocked?" That's hard to answer because other than Sunday, we harvest most days and do our best to keep everything that is ready to go in the farm stand fresh and ready to buy. We know it is frustrating when you drive out and your favorites aren't there!

Are you ready for Easter? What a great week we have coming up.

We've been doing some tractor work trying to keep up on the weeds and take advantage of the great composting weather we have been having. During the tractor work we found a family of bunnies, so any one wondering why there is one little pile of wood chips left standing by itself.....well, it's the bunnies home. By the way, thanks to Derick Greene of Greene Nursery and his workers for the tractor help.

Welcome to March everyone. Hasn't the weather been great this week - everything is growing like crazy (especially the weeds!). In typical Arizona style....it got pretty hot, we wondered if there would be a spring and then we knock on the door of a hard freeze....it's crazy!

We hope you have been finding everything you want when you come to the farmstand. The out of stock soaps will be in stock starting March 17 (barring anything unforseen ).

In the Kitchen:
Okay so this isn't really a recipe but I wanted to share it anyway. We had some goat cheese - it's something we don't really have around the house but this week we had some. It seemed a little strong on a cracker so I put a little bit on a radish and.....YUM! It's the perfect little appetizer anytime! We can supply the radishes but you need to come up with the goat cheese.
