Lewis Waite Farm News - February 2010

Submitted by ktboogie on

A full week’s vacation is such a treat. Freeing you to do what you want without thought of chores, animals, other people’s schedules, and allowing you to do whatever comes your way or whatever you direct feels very different to our normal days. Since our vacations are few and usually short, we visited my nephew Brian’s family and Alan’s Aunt Betty’s family in Maine and my sister Beverly’s family in Massachusetts. The driving time was great for planning, business discussions, and task lists for when we got home.

Best brown rice

I always had trouble cooking brown rice until I ran across a new method in Saveur. Although we haven't received brown rice in our shares, I cook it so often to go along with other items from our share, I thought it worth posting. This method is very different from any other way I've cooked rice in the past, but it delivers the best brown rice I've ever made!

Notes From Green Thumb Farm

This is our last Newsletter of the season. We would like to thank all our members for supporting us and being part of our farm family. Our CSA's have helped us continue farming the land which has been farmed for 12 generations here on Eastern Long Island. Having a market for our certified organic fruits and vegetables throughout the season has been instrumental in keeping us farming.
