New Field Farm's Online Market: What's new
Greetings,
New this week will be sugar snap peas.
I’ve also added a few cucumbers. They’re slow to come with the cool weather we’ve had (59 degrees here on the 4th!)so I’m guessing as to how many there might be by Friday. If cukes are sold out on the site you can ask for how many you would like in the comment section and we’ll provide if possible
Blueberries are starting to ripen. If we can be open for u-pick this weekend I’ll send an email. U-pick will certainly begin by next Wednesday 7/15 and we should be picking for the online market next week.
Greenhouse tomatoes and peppers in the field are also waiting for consistently warmer weather.
Thank you for your orders last week.
Enjoy,
Tim

This week’s CSA will likely include:
Tomatoes
Sweet and/or purple bell peppers
Cucumbers (and more squash if you want it ;)
Fisher Red sweet onions (from a farm seed saving project)
Purple cabbage
Cantaloupe
And a little sweet corn
See you tomorrow!

Champaign, OH: Day In The Life Recipe!
So…not only do we get the latest installment of our market series, with Champaign Berry Farm, but Cathy also provided us with an amazing recipe, this week!
Thanks, Cathy…and thanks for being the spotlight vendor of the week in the Day series!!
Lemon-Almond Strata with Fresh Raspberries
1 lb. challah, brioche or soft French bread torn in bite-sized pieces
½ cup lemon curd (note- I googled to find a recipe for lemon curd since I could not find any in Urbana at the last minute)
1 cup fresh Champaign Berry Farm red or black raspberries plus more for serving
8 eggs beaten
4 cups milk (I used almond milk)
¼ cup sugar
1 tsp. almond extract
½ tsp. salt
1 cup slivered almonds
1/3 cup (or more depending on taste) Champaign Berry Farm Red or Black Raspberry Sauce
1. Lightly grease a 13 × 9 inch baking dish. Layer half of the bread in the pan. In small dollops, distribute lemon curd on top. Scatter the raspberries evenly over the top of the curd & bread. Layer remaining bread on top.
2. Wisk together eggs, milk, almond extract, salt and sugar. Pour over bread. Sprinkle with almonds. Cover pan and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours.
3. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Uncover strata and bake for 60-65 minutes, until egg mixture is cooked through and almonds are toasted. Serve warm with Champaign Berry Farm Red or Black Raspberry Sauce and additional fresh raspberries.
Serves 8-10
