Hello!

Happy Memorial Day!

We have a great selection of spring veggies for you this week, as well as an amazing selection of meats and other goodies from our other vendors. We still have plenty of greens of all kinds, lots of lettuces for salads and the first summer squash and zucchini.

Tally wants to thank everyone for their kind words and support regarding the barn fire at her farm. The support of the community has been really uplifting. At this point, thanks to insurance, Tally has been able to purchase a new (used) delivery vehicle.

If you have paid ahead of time for bouquets, there are some bouquets available this week for pre-paid members only! On the Market page you can click on the “Pre-paid Bouquet” shopping cart. This will let Tally know you would like a bouquet, but you will not be charged.

We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday! Thank you so much for all your support!

Dawson Local Harvest:  June Produce for the Dawson Harvest

The Dawson Harvest for June 3rd

June Produce for the Dawson Harvest

HI EVERYBODY

Hope you’re having a nice Memorial Weekend. Just wanted to clue you in on what’s happening with the Harvest. First of all, it’s June, so it can’t be long before warm-weather Vegetables are available from some of our growers. In the meantime there’s still plenty of Snow Peas, Lettuce, Kale, Collards, Chard, purple Onions, and other great-eating Veggies for your table. FIVE HENS FARMS also has free-range Beef, Pork, and Eggs, there’s killer baked goods from MY DAILY BREAD and rich, delicious raw MILK from LITTLE BROWN COW. Don’t forget delicious Fresh-frozen Wild-caught Georgia White Shrimp is still available as well.

AND HONEY! BRADLEY’S FARMS Fresh Local Wildflower Honey is available in pints and squeeze bottles. Local Honey has small amounts of all the local allergens intrinsically in the Honey, which helps “inoculate” you from these allergens thus giving you some degree of immunity. There is also a lot of buzz about the various health benefits of natural local honey which you might want to investigate. And Dawson Harvest is a local source for this Honey, so consider that (also tastes great on some of DAILY BREAD’S yummy Wheat bread!).

THE MARKET IS NOW OPEN!

REMEMBER! You can now order until Tuesday night at 9pm. Pick up your order at Leilani’s Gardens Friday afternoons from 4 to 7pm.

You’ll find the DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST at http://dawsonville.locallygrown.net

We thank you for your interest and support of our efforts to bring you the healthiest, the freshest and the most delicious locally-produced foods possible! We guarantee your satisfaction with all products in the DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST.

Have a happy and healthy week!

Tomorrow is Memorial Day – the unofficial start to summer – and our remembrance of those service men and women who gave of themselves the ultimate sacrifice for our nation’s freedom.

This past Friday was the last day of school for my boys, soccer is on hiatus for a while, and we are so happy to have some freedom from our regular schedule! We plan to have some adventures this summer, including trips to the movies, visiting our kin in North Carolina, 4-H camp, and, inevitably, a soccer camp or two.

We also plan to have some adventures in eating! As you browse the Market this week, you will see a lot of summer produce being offered, including yellow squash, zucchini, peppers, and tomatoes, as well as a variety of fresh herbs. This is my FAVORITE time of year! The tantalizing flavors of real homegrown tomatoes, perfumey peaches, luscious watermelon, crunchy peppers and savory herbs inspire me to go to the kitchen and create delicious salads.

Caprese salad is divine in its simplicity. The components are fresh tomatoes, fresh mozzarella cheese, springs of basil, balsamic vinegar, and kosher salt. Slice a tomato or two into fairly thick slices. Do the same with a ball of fresh mozzarella cheese. Alternate slices of tomato and cheese, slightly overlapping each other, on a platter. Pluck the basil leaves from their stems, stack them on top of each other, and roll them up from the long side into a cigar-shaped bundle. Using a sharp knife, slice across the bundle of basil, creating very thin ribbons of the herb. Sprinkle the basil over the tomatoes and cheese, then drizzle with some fine balsamic vinegar. Top everything off with a tiny garnish of kosher salt. Oh my goodness! I’m making myself hungry just thinking about it! If you like tomatoes, give this recipe a try and let me know if you like it as much as I do.

We hope you all have a great holiday weekend. Thank you for supporting locally grown agriculture and for choosing to purchase locally. We’ll see you Wednesday at the Market.

Thanks,

Beverly
