Summer

Dear Customers,
David and I thank you for your continued support this year. This will be our last week this year to be open because we need to clear out for the planting that needs to be done at the end of July for next seasons markets. Please have a look at what we can offer this week. Between the heat and the rain, it is not much of an offering I am afraid .

Thank you,
David and Betty

Cabbages

Dear Customers,
We hope everyone is enjoying a happy and safe Memorial Day weekend.
This week our featured vegetable is green cabbage.

One of my favorite and easy way to serve cabbage is fried with some bacon.
Just slice the cabbage as you would for coleslaw. Cook a couple of slices of bacon and fry the cabbage in the bacon grease. Top with the crumbled bacon.

Please place your orders.

Thank you,

Happy Mother's Day!

We hope you have all had a beautiful, relaxing Mother’s Day.

This week we feature Swiss Chard.

Since the weather is so warm, spinach is going to seed. Swiss chard can be used in any recipe in the place of spinach and has a similar flavor.
In the spectrum of greens, Swiss chard lies between spinach and kale—not as tender as spinach, not as tough as kale. But like spinach, you can easily sauté it in some olive oil in just a few minutes.

Please have a look at what we can offer this week and place your orders.
Thank you.

Japanese Cucumber

Dear Customers,
This week our new vegetable is the Japanese Cucumber.
The Japanese cucumber has several advantages over common cucumbers. It is thin-skinned, never bitter and entirely edible. The average harvested length is about four to eight inches, while the cucumber is still young. Its skin is forest green and smooth with longitudinal grooves. The flesh is crisp, crunchy, succulent and tender firm. Its flavors are bright, effervescent and melon-like.

Please place your orders.

Thank you.

Eggs

This week, Feeney, Sweeney, Hermine, and Flo, Little Biddie chicken and Joe, Margaret and Reginald are proud to offer eggs. Small eggs, they are, because they are the first eggs they laid. They have been smiling out of one side of their beaks to the other. I told them that they were the best! I know you will think so, too.

The Tales of Wooffer's Woods

I am Always Glad Ther is a New Day

Last week, we had to take almost everything of the availability list because of a severe stink bug and aphid n infestation. We do not like those little bugs!! We sprayed with lemon joy and now we think we have the problem in control. Duette is all a bubble! We do try to be safe here even though we are not certified organic.

This week the greens are all back and we have a few carrots left as well as new cauliflower and new red cabbages and some stir fry broccoli. we plan to stay open and deliver as long as ourmers are ordering from us. We have silver queen and rainbow corn planted in the field as well as long horn okra and conch peas as well as zinnia flowers, watermelon and cantaloupe and onions. In the hydroponic stacks, we have black eyed peas planted and will keep on with the green beans until it is too hot. We have planted all new squash , yellow and zucchini and new greens. We will stay open as long as we have enough orders. We would like your feed back about this. Our email is woofferswoods@gmail.com It is important to us that you leave a message.
Thank you all for your support this year.

Fried Green Tomatoes

Happy Easter everyone! This week we feature green tomatoes. They are excellent fries. Here is a recipe.

“You can also fry up red tomatoes with this recipe but make sure they are not over ripe or they will be mushy. Serve these tomatoes outside with a glass of iced tea one summer night and enjoy the sunset with someone you love.”

Ingredients
2 large green tomatoes
1 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cornmeal
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1 teaspoon coarse kosher salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups vegetable oil for frying

Directions
1Slice tomatoes 1/2 inch thick. Discard the ends.
2Whisk eggs and milk together in a medium-size bowl. Scoop flour onto a plate. Mix cornmeal, bread crumbs and salt and pepper on another plate. Dip tomatoes into flour to coat. Then dip the tomatoes into milk and egg mixture. Dredge in breadcrumbs to completely coat.
3In a large skillet, pour vegetable oil (enough so that there is 1/2 inch of oil in the pan) and heat over a medium heat. Place tomatoes into the frying pan in batches of 4 or 5, depending on the size of your skillet. Do not crowd the tomatoes, they should not touch each other. When the tomatoes are browned, flip and fry them on the other side. Drain them on paper towels.

Thank you.

Kohlrabi

This week we feature Kohlrabi. The kohlrabi root is frequently used raw in salad or slaws. It has a texture similar to that of a broccoli stem, but with a flavor that is sweeter and less vegetal.

Kohlrabi leaves are edible and can be used interchangeably with collard greens and kale.

Kohlrabi is an important part of the Kashmiri diet and one of the most commonly cooked foods. It is prepared with its leaves and served with a light soup and eaten with rice.
Please have a look at what we offer this week and place your orders.

Thank you.
