It's already here! February, that is. Time just moves too quickly and is so precious. The ground hog claims an Early Spring is on the way.
Since Super Bowl is almost upon us, finger food is a sure bet! Many enjoy Super Bowl Parties. It's a great time to have a party, including the kids. Below are a few recipes for sandwiches, dips and appetizers. Or check the right column for more recipes.Today's date is a cool one - all zeroes, ones and twos 02-02-2012. How about some interesting food features to go with it?
This week our featured products are grown right here on the farm - CRUCIFEROUS vegetables! Not sure what they are? It's surprising how diverse this group is. We made a quick list with an easy-to-read, brief explanation of why CRUCIFEROUS veggies are vital to our well being. They are also very easy to integrate into our menus. To read all about Cruciferous Veggies and see our farm photos, just click here.
HINT: Beasley Farm grows lots of varieties of Cruciferous vegetables. They are grown Fall and Spring, and do well in the Winter if Mother Nature does not send hard freezes.
Currently being harvested on the farm: pesticide-free savoy cabbage, turnips, kale, collards, and swiss chard (all in the cruciferous family)
Big favor please! We are in desperate need of bags again! Thanks for always answering our plea to recycle your plastic bags with us! Thank you!
Fantastic Finds at the Plant City Farmers Market - While we waited, freshly-harvested STRAWBERRIES! For a few sweet, inexpensive recipes from our kitchen to yours, please click here.

Hence, we will be at the Towne Square Market Place near Chili's Bar and Grill on Hwy 19, from 8AM - 3PM. For more details, please click here.
Monday - we will be at the Cloverleaf location. If you would like any of the pesticide-free greens, please phone to reserve them, so that we know to bring them with us.

Quotes for this week:
Stress is an ignorant state.
It believes that everything is an emergency.
Nothing is that important.
- Natalie Goldberg
The fact is that in order to do any thing in this
world worth doing, we must not stand shivering
on the bank thinking of the cold and the danger,
but jump in and scramble through
as well as we can.
~ Sydney Smith
psssst! Maxine got it right!
Veggies in dips, sandwiches, and snacks are a perfect food companion when lots of rather unhealthy food is around.
The chuckle is cute:
So are you planning a big party, or just hungry for some new recipes?
