At the Farmstand: July 10-16

Seasonal highlight of the week:  Fava Beans!  Yep, a big fat pod with the fat luscious beans inside.  You can peel them for the beans and put them in nearly anything or check out this great idea for grilling them from BoulderLocavore and have folks peel their own or even eat the pods!  Yep, get yourself some help in the food prep arena.

In addition to shelling Favas, some say you need to blanch and peel the beans too, but others say that is not needed with young, fresh ones, which these are!

Note some of the Field Stone Farm items might not be in the farmstand till Wednesday, but you can find us both at the Northfield Farmers Market on Tuesday 3-6.
