While I love Fall & Winter cooking and the coziness it provides, Summer eating is really special. So fresh, so many colors, textures & flavors. Salads that can become whole meals because you keep adding different veggies, fruits and whatever meat you’ve cooked or grilled….good localvore living.
Summer Eating gets better around here this week as we processed the first poultry of the year.
So yes, FRESH Freedom Ranger chickens are ready at the Farmstand through Sunday! And then we will be restocked with our delightfullly juicy, tasty chickens in the freezer. There will also be a smaller batch of fresh chicken in about 2 weeks!
For those new to our farm and chickens. We raise Freedom Rangers, which are a cross developed by the French many years ago for their Label Rouge program. Chickens that will plump up nicely for roasting, but still take advantage of grazing, enjoying the range of plants and insects on pasture and, perhaps most importantly, taste great! We manage fully organically, though we are not certified.
If you like to have chicken parts on hand, this is a great opportunity to cut some up for your freezer. Our teammates did a video several years ago as a tutorial or perhaps you caught the hands on demo with Tyler Renaud at this past Tuesday’s Northfield Farmers Market.
And the Summer veggies are just delightful and any mix of them make a tasty treat with our fresh chicken or sausage or lamb or eggs!
