McColloms Market: Reminder - Order Pick Up is Tonight
Hi All:
I know it’s a busy time for everyone right now so thought I’d remind you that pick up is this afternoon/evening from 4:30-6:30. Please use my FRONT DOOR as the side steps are a bit icy.
Growers, you will probably be ok if you’re careful, but if it looks too dicey, leave your stuff inside my front door.
Thanks all.

GIFT IDEAS
When purchasing this week, don’t forget gifts for the teachers, mail person, hairdresser, bus driver, and neighbors.
Forsyth County parents This will be the last week to order your teacher gifts. The timing is perfect…pick up on Saturday and then drop off to the schools on Monday or Tuesday. My favorites are the mini loaves from My Daily Bread or some local honey from B & A Bee’s. Another idea is to purchase muffins and individually wrap them with a bow and card.
Other gift ideas…B & A Bee’s honey lip balms in the stockings, cookies from Royal Rose Bakery or My Daily Bread and a mini pie from Crave Pie Studio.
How about a gift certificate for The Cumming Harvest! I often hear from customers that there are many weeks they want to order but they just can’t pick up, offer to pick up a neighbors order one week. You’ll not only help your neighbor but you’ll be helping promote the market.
Heritage Farm is delivering this week and will be delivering every other week from then on.
Carrell Farms & Buffalo Gal will be delivering on January 14th.

Cape Locally Grown: Recipe and Radio
Tune in to Morning Break,. it plays on KAPE Radio 100.3 at 8:05a.m. An interview with Cape Locally Grown will be airing twice this week, again on Sunday morning at 10.
Our customer Andrea Hughey and producer from Hughey Homestead shared this RECIPE with us.(slightly adapted) Enjoy! If you want to order the ingredients just click on the gift basket link Zuppa Toscana and we’ll complile them all for you.all-* ingredients are available at Cape Locally Grown. Here’s what she has too say…
Thanks for letting me share one of our families’ most favorite dish during the cool season.
Our family tries to cook within the season by using locally grown harvests. The way saves on food waste and utilizes the freshest most nutritious foods from our region’s farm network. Since we have made this change in our consumer habits, we have never eaten so well!! Plus our food costs are cut in half.
I wanted to share a recipe that used mostly local grown items and/or produced from a local vendor. In a climate of constant change and inappropriate supermarket choices, having a central site to bring like-minded individuals together is priceless for our homestead! To healthy eating and supporting our neighbors, we appreciate all of you so much.

_Zuppa Toscana
_(Makes 6-8 servings)
*2 Root + Holler Berkshire Andouille bratwursts, sliced after resting 5 mins
*3 Laughingstalk Farmstead leeks organic chopped
*4 Green’s Garden garlic cloves, chopped
2 organic sweet potatos, chopped
1/4 tsp organic red pepper flakes
8 cups homemade chicken broth
*1 (1/4 lb) bag of kale Laughing Stalk or Grateful Greens.
1 8oz organic cream cheese, bring to room temp
Freshly cracked black pepper to taste
*sourdough bread toasted
Heat a large pot over medium heat. Add bratwurst and cook until brown on the bottom. Flip all links over to crisp up each side. Remove bratwurst and plate, slice. Add onions and garlic, cook covered for 3-4 minutes. When brown on bottom, deglaze pot with broth. Add the potatoes, red pepper flakes, bratwursts and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat and simmer uncovered for 20 minutes until potatoes are just soft. Add kale and continue to cook for 5 minutes. Add cream cheese. Gently break some potatoes to give the broth thickness. Stir until well combined and heated throughly. Serve with fresh pepper and a slice of Green’s Garden sourdough bread. Sea salt to taste. Enjoy!!!!
Love,
The Hugheys
