We are still devouring blueberries in our household. I’m convinced that my 2 year old just swallows them whole; he consumes them that quickly. A friend gave us 3 ginormous zucchini from their garden, so I went on a mission to use it all, and I was reminded of this awesome cake I made last […]
Mary Margaret is munchin’ on our Everbearing strawberries. Don’t let these strawberries fool you at market. They are UGLY. They are tiny and cracked. Some are knobby and mis-shapen. They are just not attractive like traditional June strawberries. But MY-OH-MY, are they flavorful!! Dave said, “They are so tasty, they will make you cry!” (I […]

Or try making a sauce, adding some honey and topping it on vanilla bean ice cream. Here are some more Gooseberry Recipes. Our production of gooseberries has really increased this year, and they are sweeter this year (but […]
We are in the peak of our blueberry season and from the sounds of it, we’re only half way through! Yippee! Blueberries are probably one of the easiest fruits to eat and incorporate into your daily meals. Kat enjoys eating blueberries fresh out of hand, and also blended in smoothies. Diane says that […]
Sarah’s munchin’ on currants and gooseberries! She says about them “Too pretty to eat, too perishable to turn into jewelry. One of life’s cruel wonders. Perfect for Instagram!” If you don’t understand the comment about jewelry: hold up a cluster of the currants. They would make lovely earrings. Sarah enjoys making jams out of currants […]
