DeForest Locally Grown Market News
Welcome to the 2016 season of DeForest Locally Grown. And Thank you again to Forest Run Farm for hosting the Pick up site at their farm on Mueller Road. This year will include Rusty Dog Coffee. Rusty Dog offers small batch roasts of 100% Arabica blends. Bauman’s Natural Meats will also be offering their products on certain weeks beginning soon: Brats, Burger patties, bulk burger and Pork Ribs for the Memorial Weekend holiday. Eggs will be provided by Bauman’s also. When ordering eggs, please put a note in the comment section that you would like a dozen (or two), they must be paid for in cash or check, no CSA veggie punchcards. You are able to purchase an Egg punchcard, please let us know if you need one.
Forest Run Farm will have its first offerings from the fields and hoop house: green onions, leeks, spinach, rhubarb and herbs. In the next few weeks the selection will increase. Forest Run Farm also offers vegetable plants for your garden—all started at the farm and grown organically. They are not listed this week but can be picked up at the Farm on Fridays or at Hilldale Market. The selection of plants will include tomato (slicers, paste and cherry), peppers (hot and sweet), herbs, kale, kohlrabi, and egg plant. Note: Plants can not be purchased using the CSA veggie punchcard.
There are some weeks that we are unsure of what will be ready by Friday’s Farmstand. So, we add the item to our list, but keep the availability at ZERO. It does not mean we are SOLD OUT, it means that we may have some of this after all and you may be able to pick some up at the Farmstand. You can always add a comment to your order for items you are interested in. If available, we can add them to your order.
Orders made this week (Starting Sunday evening till Tues at midnight) can be picked up on Friday at the farm from 4-6pm during the month of May. Then, after Memorial Day, it is extended to 3-6pm.
Note to CSA customers:
1. CSA customers can use their punchcards at the Hilldale Farmers Market on Wed. or Sat. for Forest Run Farm veggie and fruit products, please do not preorder using the online market, but choose items when you arrive.
2. Only Forest Run Farm vegetables and fruit can be paid for with your CSA punch card. Plants, eggs and coffee must be paid for in cash or check made out to Forest Run Farm LLC.
3. The CSA plan is flexible, don’t feel you have to order every week, but be sure to use your punch card before it expires!
4. If you are interested in signing up for a Farmstand CSA share please do so in the next few weeks.
If you are new to this market and have questions, please email farmer@forestrunfarm.com and we will get back to you.

Recipes
Cilantro Salad
From 101Cookbooks.com
1 cup sunflower oil
1 cup evenly sliced shallots, ~20 small
6 ounces asparagus spears, very thinly sliced
1 bunch of cilantro with stems
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/2 cup peanuts, well-toasted, then cooled
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
to serve: herb flowers (garlic chive flowers, chive flowers, etc), optional
Start by making the shallot oil, you can do this up to a few days in advance. Place the oil in a thick-bottomed saucepan or wok, over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot (a “test” shallot should bubble immediately), dial back the heat to medium, sprinkle in the shallots, and cook slowly until they are deeply golden, 15 – 20 minutes. Remove from heat, strain the oil off into a jar, and set aside. Place the shallots on a paper towel and allow them to cool and crisp.
In the meantime, bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil, salt generously, and cook the asparagus for just 15 seconds or so, until bright. Drain, and quickly transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking. Drain again, and set aside.
Trim any tough stems from the cilantro, and give it a good wash. Dry completely.
Just before you’re ready to serve the salad, whisk together the soy sauce, sugar, sea salt, and two tablespoons of the shallot oil. Place the cilantro, peanuts, asparagus, and sesame seeds in a large bowl. Drizzle the soy dressing over, and give a gently but thorough toss. The peanuts and asparagus like to find their way to the bottom, so be sure to scoop them back on top before serving with some of the reserved crisped shallots, and a few herb flowers on top (if you have them).
Serves 6.
Market News
Hello!
Happy Mother’s Day to all you mother’s out there! Hope everyone had a wonderful day celebrating those that you love.
The email is a bit late this evening due to the beautiful day and late sunset! It was a lovely afternoon to get some transplanting done, before the next round of rains come this week.
We have a great selection this week of spring veggies, strawberries and flowers! The strawberries are in but won’t last long! We hope you are getting plenty and stocking up for winter.
We also have plants this week! A selection of tomato and basil varieties is available. All of these plants are grown organically, starting with non GMO seed and organic potting mix. They are sure to be a great addition to your garden!
Just a reminder that you can find the strawberries under the “Fruits” section of the Market page, and the tomato and basil starts under the “Herb, Vegetable, and Flower Plants” page.
We look forward to seeing you on Wednesday! Thank you so much for all your support!
John and Tallahassee

Our awesome broccoli is now ready and we have red leaf lettuce back in the market this week, too. Our romaine comes from our second planting of a new variety called Green Forest and it is really superb with large heads and sweet, crunchy-juicy hearts.

Tullahoma Locally Grown: Your Market is Open
Good morning.
Your Tullahoma Locally Grown Market is open.
A few days ago, we announced that Fountain Springs Farm introduced Thanksgiving Turkeys for pre-order. They are already starting to fly away. Remember, there is a limited amount, so the sooner you place your order, the better. You will find “Turkey Deposit” listed in the Meat/Turkey category. Be sure to indicate your desired weight between 14-22 lbs when you place your order. 
In November, you will receive a turkey close to the weight you requested and pay the balance based on $3.75 per pound. This is a whole turkey with gibblets. Do not worry, we will send reminders closer to November so you do not buy a frozen turkey.
YOUR MARKET IS CURRENTLY OPEN.
Now is a great time to order meat for your weekend cookouts and other items you need for the week. You can order bread, eggs, milk, vegetables, herbs, meat, freshly roasted coffee, candles, and more. Consider a made-to-order loaf of English Breakfast Toasting Bread or a half-dozen Jumbo Pretzel Rolls. Both of these breads are made from scratch on market day.
Your local market closes at noon on Wednesday. Order now before your favorite items run out.
Here is the link to the market: Tullahoma Locally Grown Market
