Store Notes from Almut:

 

 

FRUIT NEWS:

 

- The fruit of the month are the organic Cranberries from Quebec for the Thanksgiving Season - 227g for $3.25.

 

I made a Cranberry sauce last week. It was the best Cranberry sauce ever! Check out last week's email for the recipe. 

 

 

- The new Apple this week is the 3lb bag of Ambrosia from B.C. for $6.50ea.

 

Ambrosia means “Food of the Gods” and this delicately sweet apple is quite the treat. Ambrosia apples were discovered in 1987 as a chance seedling growing on the Mennell family’s orchard in Cawston, British Columbia, Canada. Because it just appeared growing in nature, the apple’s parentage is unknown. Golden Delicious and Starking Delicious are thought to be its parents because both apples were growing nearby the discovery site.

 

 

 - Our local Peaches from Palatine Farm are definitely in their last week. Still juicy and sweet but easy to bruise due to their ripeness.

 

Again: Enjoy those Local Peaches while they last!

 

 

- Locally-grown Nectarines from Palatine Fruit Farm are still available - and are very juicy and sweet. Same price as the Peaches - $2.70/lb.

 

 

 

 

VEGGIE NEWS:

 

- Local Sweet Potatoes have arrived - $2.72/lb.

 

- The price of the LOCAL Pfenning's Carrots is still incredible as they are in full season. They are harvested, washed, sorted, bagged and shipped into stores within days. Imagine the freshness you are eating. 2lb bags now $2.75/bag and 5lb for $ 6.25/bag.

 

- Fresh Dill - still have some left. Coming from Fertile Ground Farm, right close to St. Agatha - $2.25 per bunch. As we said: This will be the last fresh Dill of the season.

 

- Pfenning's LOCAL Cauliflower is on sale for 2 for $5.00. We overstocked and have lots in the cooler.

 

- Thanksgiving is next and we are "food centre" for that event. 

 

We have all the ingredients you need to cook a fabulous dinner. From the fruits & vegetables to Turkey or Chicken to the right spices and seasonings - not to forget (as mentioned) the Cranberries. If you need any help with your creation, feel free to call and we can give you helpful hints or ideas. 

 

- VEGANS and VEGETARIANS!! For you, we have a Vegetarian Stuffed Turk'y - on SALE for $8.95 (reg. $9.95).

 

 

MEAT NEWS:

 

All Turkeys sold out early this year. If you are thinking about Turkey for Christmas, let us know NOW to avoid disappointment.

 

If you missed out on ordering a whole Turkey and still want some, we have Turkey Breasts raised by Fenwood Farm in Ancaster.

 

If you prefer to cook a whole big Chicken, we have that too.

 

We will have 2 more Fresh Chicken days on our list. Just mark in your calendar: Friday October 18th and Wednesday October 30th.

 

If you would like to put some organically raised Chicken into the freezer for the winter months, here is your chance. For $5.25/lb fresh pick up or $5.75/lb frozen.

 

Interested?? Call the Store to get on the 'Chicken List' - 519-725-4282.

So here is what Bernie from the Farm had to say. I can not put it into better words.

It's pre-Thanksgiving week!  In all the hustle and bustle of plans, preparations and keeping up with the day-to-day it's easy to lose sight of the heart of the matter - gratitude.  Life isn't perfect (and it's not meant to be), but we have so much to be thankful for. 

Despite the slow start this year, we have had a great season overall!  We are grateful for all the good food that comes through here - from our own fields, from our grower partners, and from far away.  It's deeply satisfying to know that our food nourishes and provides enjoyment to so many - and we have YOU, our valued customers to thank for that.  We couldn't do it without you, and we are grateful for each and every one of you!

Feast well and be happy!
