Great Opening Week!

Thanks for making our opening week spectacular! We saw so many familiar faces and many new ones! The farm is looking great and the berries are plentiful. The Reka's are still coming strong, and are so very good this year. The Blue Golds have really surprised us this season. The small plants are deceptive- there is a ton of HUGE, beautiful, dusty blue fruit coming off of those little buggers! Everyone knows Blue Golds are my favorites, and I have been jealous watching giant bowlfuls of those huge tangy fruit pass by the stand! The Hardy Blues are also getting ripe and sweeter by the day. They are the perfect size and texture for baking. They hold their integrity in baked goods and their quintessential blueberry flavor is unbeatable in muffins and breads. We've got a couple of family members who don't do dairy or gluten, but we love quick breads. Our go to recipe is the Heavenly Blueberry Lemon Loaf, and Hardy Blues are the perfect berry. This is a quick, crumbly, delicious bread. You'll likely end up eating it with a spoon, but I never hear any complaints. Crush it over a little bit of coconut ice cream, and you're in business! If you have a bit more time and can handle flour, this Blueberry Buckle looks pretty fabulous too. 
Happy Blueberry Baking!
