Magruder Jam

June 30th, 2010 by Bob Klein

A great visit yesterday to Mac Magruder’s cattle ranch (they raise hogs and lambs too). It is truly a wonderful place. The whole story is coming, but we had to get this out right away:

“Never Enough” written by Ben Provan. Performed by Ben with very new wife Grace Magruder-Provan, along with Kate and Mac Magruder, at their ranch on the banks of the Russian River headwaters in Potter Valley, CA.

This Just In: Fettine with Porcini (say that 5x fast)

June 23rd, 2010 by Catherine Meng

A month ago, we took delivery of some vitellone (young beef) from Mac Magruder. We only get these animals about 3-4 times a year and they usually go fast. Primarily raised on mother’s milk & grass-fed on Mac’s ‘ice cream’ pasture, we hang the meat in our meat locker for up to six weeks to help develop the characteristic, more concentrated aged-meat flavors. These thinly sliced loin cutlets will be served with Porcini mushrooms and vin santo, and appear on the menu starting tonight through the weekend.

This Just In: Freshly Dug Potatoes

June 18th, 2010 by Catherine Meng

We’ve been getting the first local freshly dug potatoes from the Capay Valley for the past few weeks. The above beauties are German Butterballs from Full Belly Farm.

The only way you can tell if a potato is freshly dug is by its peeling, delicate skin. Because their skins haven’t had time to harden, they need to be refrigerated if kept more than a few days. They are creamier, less starchy, and sweeter, although the flavor is less concentrated.

For mature, cured potatoes, Full Belly will cut the leaves of the plant & keep the potatoes in the ground until the skins harden, allowing the potatoes to be stored without refrigeration. Continue reading ‘This Just In: Freshly Dug Potatoes’

Reports From Our Farmers – Spring 2010

June 2nd, 2010 by Catherine Meng

One of the wettest on record, the spring of 2010 has created some unique challenges for many of our farmers. We already know that the height of tomato season is estimated to hit later than usual & so we’ve pushed back our Annual Tomato Dinners to September. We were curious about other ways in which the rain has effected spring crops and planting schedules so we queried our farmers last week to find out. Here’s what some of them had to say:

Welling Tom, Brookside Farm: The unusually persistent rains in February and March were the most problematic. Most of our spring and summer vegetable crops need to be planted around that time, and our soil remained too wet for decent tilth. Our spring crops (such as sugar snap peas or spinach) were planted in lumpy soil and in greatly reduced volume, and were thus compromised in yield. Only those crops which were actually planted in the fall (such as broccoli, chards, kale, fava beans and garlic–which is a spring crop as green garlic and garlic scapes), or crops like arugula (which doesn’t require fine tilth) produced much. We had to wait until the middle of April to begin planting our tomatoes in the field. Continue reading ‘Reports From Our Farmers – Spring 2010′
