When snowy slush turns to warm(ish) rains, bright flowers pop up (love me some primroses!), and the birds start building their nests, we all tend to get a little excited about new ideas and whats to come. Its no different at the farm, and so were embarking on a new (online) project.
Welcome to the first weekly installment of the Lone Duck Farm Recipe Book!
Welcome to the first weekly installment of the Lone Duck Farm Recipe Book!
Every week, well be posting a new recipe that uses one of the ingredients we grow (youre welcome, CSA members!). We welcome submissions from the community, and if the warmer air gets to our heads, we might even post TWO recipes in the same week! You can find a compilation of these recipes in the new tab at the top of the page.
So without further ado, heres our first delicious treat:
