Featured Vegetable
Eggplant
 
Like the tomato and pepper, the eggplant is a fruit rather than a vegetable.  The various varieties may differ a bit in taste and texture, but can basically be described as pleasantly bitter a a bit spongy.  They are often used as a base flavor in more complex recipes because they tend to take up flavor from other ingredients very well. 

Here's a nice autumn recipe.
Featured This Week at the Farm Store
Bolzano Old School Salami
Small batch and handcrafted, this down-to-earth salami is anything but simple. Aromatic garlic and rustic cracked black pepper play up the intensely savory and lightly tangy flavors of our blend of Certified Humane�, antibiotic-free Berkshire, Red Wattle, and Hereford pork.


The Dirt on the Farm Bill 
 
 Below is an invitation to the "Faces of the Farm Bill" event in Franklin, Wisconsin.  The Farm Bill affects everyone and it is important to know how and why. Your voice needs to be heard right now. The new bill has not yet been passed, and because of that valuable programs cannot be funded.  Learn more, speak up, and let's get a new bill passed.
 
Do you care about farmers? Do you care about access to healthy food? Do you care about families struggling to put food on the table?
