New Field Farm's Online Market: Hot enough?
Greetings,
Although it feels like the height of summer, we’re adding late season crops such as leeks, Copra onions, and Kennebec potatoes. *It’s supposed to be 72 degrees on Friday *so such food will seem appropriate to the season after all this heat passes.
Lettuce and salad mix are looking good at the moment. Hopefully they’ll come through another hot and humid day and then the possibly heavy rains on Thursday. Likewise the tomatoes.
Thank you for your recent orders and keep cool. Or hot, depending on your preference.
Enjoy,
Tim
Champaign, OH: Checking The Time
It’s that time…it’s a Tuesday evening, the bewitching hour is near, and the market will be closing in just 30 minutes.
Get the seasonal produce while you can…this is the time of the season when it begins to phase out…
Go, look through the market, make your selections, see how easy it will make your life!
Peace, Love, Good Vibes…

Chef’s Corner
Eggplant Pizza
My friend Chef Jessica who I met in culinary school is visiting and I am borrowing a recipe from her with a few little Homegrown tweaks. Eggplant pizzas are simple, quick and full of your favorite vegetables. Start with eggplant, top it with tomatoes or sauce, some veggies and cheese and you’re ready to pop your pizza in the oven and enjoy. Below is the recipe. I hope you enjoy your gluten free, veg packed, Homegrown pizza!
For the Pizza:
Japanese eggplant, sliced lengthwise
Tomatoes, sliced
Toppings like mushrooms, onions or olives
1 T. sea salt
Olive oil
Dried Italian seasoning (oregano, rosemary, thyme, basil)
Basil leaves, torn in small pieces
Grated Mozzarella (vegan or dairy)
Grated Parmesan (vegan or dairy)
Red pepper flakes
Procedure:
Salt eggplant and let rest 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On a parchment lined baking sheet lay out eggplant and bake for 5 minutes. Top baked eggplant with tomatoes, Italian seasonings, your favorite toppings and mozzarella cheese. Bake for another 5 minutes or until the cheese is golden. Finish cooked pizzas with basil, parmesan and red pepper flakes.
Buon Appetito!
Chefs Jessica and Amy
