TOMORROW IS THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING! EAT PARSNIPS!

We're open tomorrow--come visit!
John has been busy digging tender sweet parsnips, browse our beautiful seed selection.
Two Farmers Farm has provided more gorgeous spinnach, cider is back in stock and a new shipment of apples has arrived.  Your favorite fingerling potatoes are also plentiful.

From Wikipedia 
The buttery, slightly spicy, sweet flavor of cooked mature parsnips is reminiscent of butterscotchhoney, and subtle cardamom. (mmm, that is a nice combination)


Have you tried parsnip fries?


Cut narrow slices of parsnips, toss with olive oil, sprinkle with coarse salt and pepper.  Spread on a large baking sheet and bake in a 450ยบ oven until tender--approx. 25-30 minutes (toss mid way through time).


COMING SOON -- A William update!  Opening Mother's Day!
