...And so are some of the season's first summer veggies, fruits and specialty products - imagine blueberry sausage and blueberry kombucha - now that's special!
Our vendors are happy to offer you the beginning of summer's bounty -- and it will only get better as the season continues.

As Northampton County enters the Green Phase, the first hour at EFM will no longer be reserved for age 65+ and those with underlying health conditions.
Things are getting better but to keep everyone safe at EFM, masks or face coverings are still required as is maintaining 6' distance from other shoppers.
We're all in this together!

Primordia Mushroom Farm
Mushroom Musings by Jesse Tobin
|
Here at the farm we have been surviving by reinforcing/adhering to our systems. This has even extended to the household, I am reminded of a PA Dutch song I know that describes all the chores for each day of the week- if we deviate from the plan, chaos ensues! So my dinner routine has become somewhat fixed for the first time in my culinary life....
As many of you know, mushrooms can be a fabulous meat substitute. I use this to my advantage every single day! We do eat meat, but try to limit it to meat we can trade for with other vendors at markets, and even then, we try to go light. So Meatless Mondays have become a thing in our house. This past week we were all very very happy with my stuffed portabellos:
Cheesey Stuffed Mushrooms (serves 4)
8 portobello caps, destemmed and cleaned
2 cups cooked rice
1 cup breadcrumbs
10 oz feta, paneer, breadcheese or something like that- cut into 1/2 inch cubes
2 eggs
2 cloves garlic
Pre-heat oven to 350 deg F
Lay portobello caps out on a sheet pan.
Drizzle olive oil and grind a bit of salt over them.
In a medium sized mixing bowl, combine all other ingredients.
Fill each cap with mixture.
Bake for 35 minutes
A simple variation is to substitute shiitake caps (32 caps in that case) or crimini caps for a smaller bite/appetizer dish. Simple but wonderful! Enjoy!

Haven Farmstead Table
Cow's Milk Artisan Cheese & Butter
|
What's on the table? Haven Farmstead has a rotating mix of fresh and aged cheeses made from the milk of their pastured-cow herd. The cows' grass-based diet ensures the milk is flavorful, and that the cheese represents the unique terroir of their pastures. Ripened cheeses are a mix of classic styles such as Brie, Blue, Tomme, and Alpine. Fresh cheeses such as Curds, Feta, and Fromage Blanc are made with whole milk to ensure they're decadent and packed with healthy protein and fats.
Haven Farmstead sources certified organic, grass-based cream for their butter which they culture for depth of flavor and probiotic value. Uncultured, salted butter is also offered.
