Did Humble Pie ever host Old 97's? I'm convinced we did but my roommate is saying no way. Skillet Gilmore, Chris Smith, Greg Adams, Marc Smith, Caitlin Cary, Vanessa Alberson Smith, Angie Theide Smith, Todd Fjelsted, Jim Knott, Nikki Courie Knott, anybody?

Come see me at The Saturday Market at Rebus Works today, 10 am to 1 pm. I'll have strawberries, asparagus, radishes, beets, mini-head cabbages and some lovely mixed greens. Double T Farm, Fat Radish Farm and Sweet Peas Urban Gardens will be there to round out your produce needs. There are also egg vendors, but get there early as the eggs sell out fast!

A nice read about using spring greens. Although I'm still partial to the southern tradition of cooking collards or mustard or turnip greens with a hamhock, there are endless alternatives.

The thing with shopping at a Farmers Market is that often the farmer’s tables are filled with items you will never find in a typical grocery store. This is a good thing and a bad thing for many reasons and depending on who you are, it can be an exciting thing or a scary thing. Let’s take braising gr…

Interested in a CSA this year? For those of you who don't know, I have a new place to farm this year. I will be moving my operation onto a 3 acre spot just outside of town, brushing off the old Part & Parcel brand and offering a CSA. I'm still hashing out the details, but I will begin selling shares in the next couple of weeks. I would be honored to be your farmer. The prepaid shares will help me get this expansion off the ground, and we can all enjoy the bounty together this year. No commitment required at this time, but if you are interested in the details please message me here. And please share far and wide!
