Happy December! We hope you and your families had a wonderful Thanksgiving! And while it is great to have a holiday geared towards gratitude, let’s remember that we can practice gratitude everyday, especially as we head into the holiday season. We certainly are grateful for all of the hard work from our New American farmers this season!
We are looking forward to some exciting things, like Holiday Gift Boxes (read below!) and special bread orders from the Crust and Crumb! Mark your calendars: there will be special bread loaves from the Crust and Crumb available to order in your FarmShares the weeks of December 12th & 19th, and again the weeks of February 6th & 13th!
Give the gift of local food for the holidays! We have eight different gift boxes to choose from this year, all with unique themes and varying prices. You can read the full descriptions and purchase them starting this week when you go to customize your Share in Harvie: look for the Gift Box products and select the one(s) that you’d like! It’s as simple as that! No need to stress about your gifts this season–we’ve got you covered.

Garlic Peppercorn Cheddar Cheese from Plymouth Artisan Cheese
Here’s what the producers have to say about their delicious cheese:
“Garlic Peppercorn is inspired by the flair and finesse of the French kitchen, with its proud and vivacious character and the savory elements of onion, garlic, red peppers—and of course, green peppercorns. The poir vert tradition holds strong in France, where chefs bow to this verdant variety of the peppercorn, which shows up in sauces as well as in cheese. This raw cheddar is marbled, which makes it (much like the French) as pretty as it is complex. It is aged for sixty days, yielding an upbeat and creamy granular curd cheese that tastes like a whole dinner in just one bite.”
Mmmmmm, c’est délicieux!
