Heirloom Living Market Hamilton Mill: Countdown to Close...
The Market closes Monday at 8:00pm!
Please remember that minimums must be met for each Market to ensure delivery by our Farmers! At the present time we are a little less than 1/2 way to minimum! Please know that we are in the process of evaluating the Hamilton Mill Market! Share the Market with friends and family so that we can build the Market and ensure its success. Be sure and get your order in and thank you for supporting our LOCAL Farmers!
…this and that…
Pork Ribs are on Special this week! Since it might be a tad chilly to grill, try seasoning with salt, pepper, garlic and caraway seed, place in crockpot, add sauerkraut on top! Served with mashed potatoes and a salad this makes a delicious ‘winter’ dinner!
I have had several calls about Bacon… and I would like to clarify a couple of things. It is important to read the descriptions that the Farmers take time to write and post for each product. The Bacon was listed as 3/4lb weight at the cost of $10.00. In the past, Bacon has generally been offered in 1lb packages and was priced at $12.00. Some of us were surprised to receive 3/4lb packages and a thicker cut Bacon than what Greg generally offers. The difference is in the processor that was used for the last group of piggies. I have been in contact with Greg and descriptions in future postings will specify the ‘cut’ (thick or thin) of the Bacon…as for the weight…READ, READ, READ!

Princeton Farm Fresh: Weblog Entry
Hello Everyone,
It’s Hannah, I am writing the weblog for this week. Hope you all have been able to brave the first snow fall of the year fairly well. What a switch to go from 50 degrees in December to 10 degrees this January morning! On our farm, the new flock of chickens keep picking up their feet and shaking them off in disgust while cackling “This snow is not for us birds!” Hopefully with the sun brightly shining today the snow and ice will melt soon. Through the cold temperatures we still have all the wonderful winter veggies producing and available on the market for your favorite winter recipes. See you Friday covered in our winter coats, scarves, and mittens. Stay warm!!

Recipes
Creamed Swiss Chard with Lemony Bread Crumbs
from Bon Appetit
Ingredients
SERVINGS: 4
½ cup torn fresh breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
Kosher salt
2 large bunches Swiss chard, ribs and stems cut into 2” lengths, leaves torn into 2” pieces
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 medium shallots, sliced
Freshly ground black pepper
¾ cup heavy cream
Preheat oven to 400°. Toss breadcrumbs, oil, and lemon zest on a rimmed baking
sheet; season with salt. Toast, tossing once, until golden brown, 8–10 minutes.
Meanwhile, cook chard leaves in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender,
about 1 minute. Drain; transfer to a bowl of ice water to cool. Drain and squeeze well
in a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
Heat butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots and chard ribs and
stems, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring often, until tender, 5–8
minutes. Add cream; bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer, stirring often, until
thickened, about 4 minutes. Add chard leaves and cook, stirring, until warmed
through and coated with cream sauce; season with salt and pepper.
Top Swiss chard with breadcrumbs just before serving.

Champaign, OH: Local Love!
The Local Lovefest continues in our series of featuring our market vendors, and their views on what being a local producer means to them…
Today, I am excited to introduce the duo of Mad Sweet Heat!! They are more new vendors with an amazing product!
If you haven’t already tried Mad Sweet Heat, or purchased, make sure to change that…
Here they are…bringing even more to our local fabric…Thanks for joining the market, Mark and Debbie!
We’ve all been asked to assess our thoughts on what being LOCAL means to us and those we aim to serve. Also, what does it mean to be part of a local movement, what makes us passionate, and how do we value Real Food vs. Processed Food? Let us start by telling you a bit about MAD SWEET HEAT.
MAD SWEET HEAT is a small local family business, who had their first retail sale in June, 2015. This was of course; proceeded by 11 months of learning the correct process of how one would take their prized recipe to the next level.
MAD SWEET HEAT is very passionate about making and eating sliced candied jalapenos! Being a local producer gives hope that we can make more of an impact on our own local economy which in turns helps everyone along the local supply chain. When one completes the steps necessary in creating a quality product from end to end, then you can’t help but have passion for the product(s) you create.
We all eat processed food at some point or another so knowing how your processed food is made and what ingredients go into the making of that product should concern us all. You can still get a great quality product that is all natural and contains no preservatives in a “processed food” such as MAD SWEET HEAT.
Conyers Locally Grown: Available for Friday January 15
I hope this finds you all doing well. The market is open and ready for orders. We have several hog share available as well as some fantastic whole hog sausage. With any luck we will have some nice green onions and green garlic soon. The baby kale and lettuce looked good before this latest cold snap. Hopefully the will hold up.
Order up between not and Wednesday evening. We will see you in Friday between 5-7 at Copy Central.
Thank yoj for all your support,
Brady
