]]> Comment on Plans for 2009 by John http://www.barefootgardens.org/?p=131&cpage=1#comment-1392 John Wed, 25 Feb 2009 13:17:09 +0000 http://barefootgardens.org/2009/02/23/plans-for-2009/#comment-1392 Thank you everyone for the immediate and positive response. We are humbled! In response to Jan. Our policy is going to be the same as it has been for season extensions in the past. We are glad to have single folks pair up with a friend (or acquaintance) for a share. However, we ask that people not split shares between families or more than two adults. We have considered half shares in the past, but I don't think we're going to introduce them this year. Jan, there are several singles out there. Let me know if you would like me to send you their names. Thank you everyone for the immediate and positive response. We are humbled!

Thanks for plunging into this modified venture. Jan John,

]]> Comment on Storing Fresh Herbs by Mo Najand http://www.barefootgardens.org/?p=33&cpage=1#comment-109 Mo Najand Sun, 28 Oct 2007 01:57:06 +0000 http://barefootgardens.org/2006/05/30/storing-fresh-herbs/#comment-109 The paper towel method is best ( if my boyfriend would only follow this method). I do store herbs in salad spinner. Those are for the days that I return from the farmers market with all kinds of herbs. Placing in water is only good for heartier herbs like bay leaf, sage and basil. The paper towel method is best ( if my boyfriend would only follow this method). I do store herbs in salad spinner.

]]> Comment on Grocery Store Tomatoes by Ian (organic gardening) McAllister http://www.barefootgardens.org/?p=57&cpage=1#comment-217 Ian (organic gardening) McAllister Mon, 30 Jul 2007 11:53:36 +0000 http://barefootgardens.org/2006/08/02/grocery-store-tomatoes/#comment-217 My favorite way to preserve tomatoes is to dry them. I start with about two bucketfulls of tomatoes from my organic garden, and slice them open and place them on drying racks. Once they are crispy dry I put them in the blender, and turn them into dust. Two bucketfulls make about a jam-jar full of powder. You can immagine the concentrated goodness when I stir a tablespoonful of tomato powder into a soup or stew.

It's the Invasion of the Produce Snatchers... the Pods have taken over the grocery store! Imagine the horror of pork from pigs genetically engineered to be compatible as human organ donors. It' the OTHER Other White Meat. You shouldn't worry so much, we have advertising agencies to help us overcome our fears... Heh.

The yolks are so yellow. We also bought bacon cured with organic ingredients - very tasty and the fried turkey cooked at the Solstice. The eggs are really good. The yolks are so yellow.
