Happy Maple Monday, friends!

With Thanksgiving just around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about the side dishes that make the table. This week’s recipe is one that has a way of disappearing first: Shaved Brussels Sprouts and Apple Salad with Maple Vinaigrette.

Crisp, thinly shaved sprouts, sweet-tart apple, a handful of cranberries and toasted nuts, all tossed in a simple vinaigrette made with our pure Vermont maple syrup. It’s bright, it’s crunchy, and it can be prepped ahead, which means one less thing to fuss over on the big day.

Here’s the secret: the maple. Just a couple of teaspoons takes the edge off the sprouts and brings out the apples sweetness, without ever tasting “sweet.” It’s the same maple tradition our family has been tending for seven generations, from Grandpa Hawkins’ sugar house to our wood-fired arch today, and it’s amazing what a little of it can do for a humble vegetable.

Stock up on maple. Our pure Vermont maple syrup and maple products are available to order online at plewfarm.com, perfect for your holiday cooking, your pancakes, and gifts for the maple lovers on your list.

Happy Friday from the Farm!

Another week in the books and another weekend headed your way!

And oh, the weather! Cool mornings, crisp air, and sunshine all day long. It’s one of our favorite seasons here on the farm. How about you?

Busy Days on the Farm

Daily chores keep us busy ... feeding and tending to the laying hens, the turkeys, the pigs, the calves, and the cows. The cows continue to graze the pastures around the farm, and get moved regularly to fresh grass. And the big task this week, every wrapped round bale has been hauled in from the fields and stacked at the farm. Winter feed is ready!

Holiday Turkeys Are Calling!

Speaking of turkeys, we have available for your holiday table! This year, they’ll be frozen. Pasture raised right here on our farm (you may have seen them out strutting as you drive by!). They always sell out early, so give us a shout and get on the turkey list sooner rather than later.

What’s Waiting in the Farm Stand

  • Meat: steaks, roasts, sausage, and more
  • Farm fresh eggs, always at the ready
  • Veggies: onions, garlic, potatoes, greens, carrots, and beets
  • The fridge: cheese, butter, yogurt, and apple cider
  • The shelves: jams, mustard, vinegar, coffee, soaps, honey, pancake mix, and more

Come On By!

We’d love to see you this weekend! Grab a friend or two and stop on by. You’ll find us at 1966 Healdville Road in Mount Holly, open through Sunday, 12:00 to 5:00.
