Dishing up local and seasonable meals, from our farm to your kitchen
Hello, Norman’s readers! It seems there is no better time to come back to share my recipes than now. At this time, most of us are doing our part to combat the pandemic by staying put at home. This mandatory time in my house has quickly propelled me into the position as head chef of […]
Hello Norman’s readers & eaters, welcome to 2020! I am back with the first recipe of this century, and as a good American I am starting out with a none other than a scrumptious Super Bowl snack! In most cases, Super Bowl foods are rarely considered to be any kind of super food. Super bowl […]
by Francesca Patterson It’s that wondrous time of year between the holidays where the energy all around is joyful and the streets are a-lit with sparkling lights. The air is filled with anticipation about people on their way in or out of town. Something else that makes it so special is that this is a time […]
by Francesca Patterson I remember the day that I realized that cheese is an ingredient that has the ability to make you like almost any food. This delicious detail was the extra little touch I needed to guide me into eating more vegetables. A few years ago, I thought I had cracked a code when […]

by Francesca Patterson Without any doubt or question in my mind, Thanksgiving wins as my favorite holiday out of the year. The family, the food, the weather, the food coma that comes afterward, I just thoroughly adore the whole thing. It’s especially fun for me this year that I am sharpening up my chef skills […]
by Francesca Patterson This week’s recipe is centered around one of my current most adored vegetables. This food would have ten-year-old me quaking in her boots…they are none other than Brussel sprouts. These tiny cabbage-like foods really do not deserve the bad rep they’ve acquired amongst picky eaters. I was once of those, but I […]
by Francesca Patterson People may always think apples and pumpkins for fall, but kale is also a late Autumn superstar. This time of year, kale thrives off the slight dip in temperatures we experience overnight. This mild frost actually brings out the best of the flavor notes in kale, so we should all take advantage […]
by Francesca Patterson I hope that everyone had a happy and safe Halloween on Thursday, even though we had some tricky weather. On the bright side, it was conveniently warm and clear right at peak trick-or-treating time. The costume parade in my neighborhood was out and about with all its colorful glamour. The Halloween fun […]
