Dear Vegetable Husband Customer,
We can’t say enough good things about all the folks and the food that gathered together this last weekend. If you have questions or suggestions for next year, please let us hear from you. I am already looking at the calendar and planning for a new location for 2012. Thanks to everyone for contributing, and a special thanks to all of our Vegetable Husband volunteers for making the evening flow smoothly.
In the basket this week is a fall variety. We have white sweet potatoes and some are called purple sweets. These are not quite as sweet as the orange ones, just nice and starchy. I can’t wait to steam one to get the most of its own flavor. You also have Read the rest of this entry »

Thanks to all of the fine folks that made it out to the Vegetable Husband Third Anniversary Party at Home Grown! It was wonderful to share food, drinks, stories, and silliness with all of you! Local photographer Bonnie Heath was kind enough to set us up with a fun photo booth, and those photos are now online for you to enjoy. The picture above is from the booth, and it features our musical entertainment for the evening: Mule Skinner Trio. Thanks so much to the Trio and to Bonnie for adding such festive touches to the event!

They harvested your Read the rest of this entry »

Dear Vegetable Husband Customer,
You will notice that you have a container of southern grapes in your basket today are coming from Love is Love Farm. The green fruit is the scuppernongs and the dark ones are muscadines. They are great to just eat but many people are bothered by the cluster of seeds inside the meat of each grape (my mouth is watering just typing this! Lol). Some people eat the skin, some just chew eat and then discard. If you have ANY questions about this Read the rest of this entry »
