You Don't Know Jack?

Meet Capt. Jack Sparrow,
the resident farm dog.

Jack is head of farm hospitality. His duties include greeting farm guests, greeting crew members each morning and providing comedic relief through out the day. He also keeps a watchful eye on the goats and chickens and makes daily trips to the fields to make sure things are just right. Jack takes his responsibilities very serious, but don't worry, this Jack is NOT all work and no play. He is keen on staying in shape and is always bringing you a stick or ball or toy for you to throw. Jack also consumes an organic diet of meat cereal and liver and receives many treats through out the day.Checkin' out the fields

Hammin' it up.


Today's menus

Lunch: curry pork, rice, maple roasted veggies (carrot, watermelon radish, black spanish radish) toassed with some sauteed ramps

Dinner: Falafel with pita bread, 'tzatziki' sauce (hold the cuke), couscous salad with all things orange (orange juice and zest, carrot ribbons, and sweet potato puree) and raisins (i wanted golden raisins, but only had red) and for dessert; shortbread cookies with sauteed pear, mashed dates and sweetened labneh cheese. Veggie count was low tonight. Only 4. But to make up for it, this was nearly a vegan meal! (except the cheese)

I also made some muffins with rhubarb, pecans, coconut flake and chocolate chips for crew snack tomorrow! I used coconut oil for the fat in the crisp topping and the whole kitchen smelled delicious!!!

  1. What about my beer question? Making cheese with beer?
    I wonder if adding a beer to a gallon of milk (raw from the farm), and 12oz of cream, would make decent cheese curds?
    Can you ask a Packers Fan for me?
