ok, it's officially "deep winter". this is not my favorite time of year, but i do enjoy all the seasons in their own special ways. my favorite time during this coldest part of the year is walking back to the house after evening chores in a fresh blanket of snow. everything is so quiet. i love the smell of wood smoke rising from area chimneys. i like how twinkling lights from my house and my

it was chilly last night and the night before. down to 45 in these parts overnight. i was not quite ready for this cold right now. kinda thought it might be a few weeks away yet. the wooly worms are heavy in black fuzz with narrow orange bands, a folklore indication of a harsh winter. glad i've been stockpiling wood already. i am looking forward to the frost. i'm so done with the gardens.

in late september or early october, can't remember the exact day, a neighboring farm was emptying their shrimp ponds and selling fresh, fresh, fresh local pond-raised shrimps. last year was their first year for harvest and since we support local ag, we dutifully purchased a few pounds of the fresh shrimpies and brought them home. Again this year, we stopped by on the designated "shrimp sale day

hey, happy new year to all! sorry for not updating this often enough. we have expanded our family recently with the addition of lisa ritter, an exchange student from miltenberg, germany. i also got caught up in facebook for a while. i'll try to be a more regular writer over the rest of the winter.our meat csa is rockin'! we have 34 members through this winter season. we have had so much

i picked up the hogs from the processor today. boy do they look great! the bacon is still being cured so i'm not sure when we will get that. our cardington processor, hoffman's doesn't render lard, so i'm trying it myself. i found a great blog entry from the homesick texan on how to render your own lard. i'll report back when i have learned more.

sunday's are my day to play catch up in the kitchen. i like to cook for the week on sundays when i can. many times what i prepare only lasts for a day or two and not a week, like a dessert or roast, but at least there is something in the frig for us to grab in a hurry when we are hungry. i've already made eggs salad, pudding and cookies. i plan to make a big pot of leek and potato soup this

yes, it's almost time to start our winter meat csa. we are very excited about it. the first beef and the chickens are in the freezers. man do they look great! two hogs go in for processing Monday morning. the first two lambs go in mid-November. i'll be both sad and happy to see the lambs and the pigs go. the lambs are cute and fuzzy. but they are starting to be obnious. the pigs have been

i'm still busy canning and putting up food for the winter. yes, i'm a squirrel. over the past few weeks i canned up tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes, beef soup stock, chickens and chicken stock. i made noodles yesterday. i took some frozen spinach from our garden, pureed it and made spinach noodles, along with thick egg noodles and tomato noodles too. i've still got sweet potatoes to can. moles

this pretty much sums it up, it's been one of those weeks. last week, a wisdom tooth i should have had pulled 20 years ago was giving me fits. i have no dental insurance and called around for pricing on dental procedures. i finally found a dentist i could afford and made an appointment for last monday. we canceled our farm day on the 14th 'cause peter was sick and the pain in my tooth was

i have pear sauce in the canner right now. it smells and tastes so yummy. that's something i don't see in the grocery stores. ah, the benefits of canning your own food.our pears are doing very well this year. very few bug holes or bad looking pears considering we do nothing to those trees but pick their fruit. we will offer some pears in this week's csa shares. i made pear butter last week.

here is what we canned up on monday of this week. 15 pints of corn, 6 pints of green beans, 1 pint and 13 1/2 pints of salsa and 14 quarts of potatoes. i don't have the pear butter on the hoosier yet, since it's going in the canner today. i think i'm going to hold off on canning through the weekend. i have plans to can next monday. it's about time to get some tomatoes on the shelves.

Canned peaches on the Hoosier cabinetby canning of course! we are now full swing into canning season. i did make some strawberry jam and freeze blueberries earlier this summer, but in the last week i've increased my panty inventory by leaps and bounds. i canned some green beans last weekend. then my friend beth elder with terre verde farms came over this past tuesday and we canned corn and

i enjoy making cheese. i got into making cheese when i was goat sitting my friend lorene's milk goats a few years ago. i had to milk them twice a day and had oodles of goat milk around. i bought a package of rennet at the amish bulk goods store and jumped right in. i use the recipes on dr. fankhauser's website, since his recipes are geared for people like me, the small home cheese maker.

why isn't this a recipe blog? because sourcing your food, acquiring it live and getting it from live state to the dinner table is most of the fun! i will explore local foods from central ohio, from the farm to the table. look for tips on preserving your own food along with recipes and the interesting stories experienced in aquiring local food.
