OK, so hopefully by now everyone is up to speed and cozy with the idea of the new harvests boxes. I have to tell you that the more we get into this new model, the more I am loving it. One of our web guys accurately coined this new model “the Evolution of the CSA box.” Ideas need to change. Businesses need to change. Our local food landscape is due for a change. And this change is going to happen whether we like it or not. So let’s not wait for it; let’s take part in creating it.

The Reconstruction of the Harvest Box
First off, have a fantastic Thanksgiving weekend. Be safe and enjoy.

Thanksgiving Prep, Schedule, and an Anniversary
And just like that, with the snap of your fingers and we are preparing to make a turkey dinner again. Yes, it is time for the annual food lovers final exam. Do you stick to the staples or got out on a limb and throw some red chile in the gravy to spice up the usual? So much fun with food this week I just love it. Have a blast with the planning and preparing for your master piece.
New Faces at the Fiesta
Some new faces have been showing up around here. Give me a few moments to share some of these with you.
The Door and Power of Your Support
I have to share a nostalgic story with you about this door. And I know that some of you recognize this door very well.
The Story of an Apple and Welcome Navajo Pride
Whenever I am late for an appointment (which doesn’t happen very often), I always like to break the ice by saying “Sorry I am late, my car hit a water buffalo on the way.” By saying that I can usually avoid the awkward moment of needing to explain why the heck I am late and just move on to business.
Height of Excelsior and a Fall Harvest Festival
Recipe Idea: Heirloom Tomato Basil Soup
So when I tell you that this week we have the most fruit that we have ever had from Excelsior Orchards, you better believe you are in for a treat. Paul has brought us Peaches, Plums, Nectarines, and Pears! We have honestly never had this much abundance from his trees in one week. What a fantastic way to celebrate Labor Day and all the hands that Labor to keep you and your family fed on a daily basis. Enjoy.
Pricing, Peaches, and Corn
Well it is easy to say that August continues to impress me. Right after we get prepared for the beginning of Excelsior Orchards’ peach harvest, I got a phone call from Dean Schwebach (Schwebach Farm in Moriarty, NM) saying that his corn is ready for harvest. What??! Just when you think things can’t get any better, Local corn comes out of the field.
August Abundance and Cherry Pie Kits
We combined Paul’s sour/tart cherries and Swiss Alps’ pie dough (with a recipe) and bundled it up for you.
If you love food, you love August. July is incredible but it is just an appetizer to the main course of local food that August and September are.
Blueberries and a Look at Fruit
As you are hopefully by now aware, we have tons of blueberries for you this week. And eating these berries over the weekend has brought two things to my mind that I want to share with you.
