A fresh salad

[dancerjodi]

B and I stopped at the Farm around the corner from our house yesterday on the way home to pick up what they had. I mentioned the corn on the cobb we grilled yesterday - I also got 2 kinds of lettace, some tomatoes and some cute, teeny peaches.

It makes SUCH a difference eating such fresh food, wow, I forgot. There is so much more flavor, the quality is so great compared to the supermarket. Yum.

So if you're out in our neck of the woods check out Sunshine Farm (their large farm store building will be finished construction supposedly at the end of the month - right now they are selling out of a big awning). There is an article about them in here:

Hey, Sunshine Dairy! I used to ice skate when I was a kid. My dad did when he was a kid, too.

If you're ever looking for turkey (or other stuff, like homemade pies, breads, frozen entrees, homegrown veggies, etc) check out my old farm -- OutPost Farm on Prentice St in Holliston -- I worked there all through high school and in the beginning of college, too. They should be getting their own corn in any day now, I think. Also, in the fall, there's a Celebrate Holliston festival and they do themed hay rides with a petting zoo and stuff. Oh, and old-fashioned BBQ chicken on Thursdays in the summer.

Good stuff. :)

Ice Skate, at the farm?

I'm bummed - they closed the ice cream stand RIGHT before we moved down the street from there. They sold off a huge chunk of their land for condos (ick!). I can understand though, times are tough.

Thanks for the info! Did you guys own it, or did you just work there? I knew there was a farm you worked at but didn't know where.

Yeah, we skated on the pond at the bottom of the hill next to the farmstand. It's one of the popular spots in the area.

We didn't own the farm, no. We moved down the street from it in 1992, and I started working there in 1993. That the one, though. Tyler worked there, too. Good times.
