A Message from Rachael:
After Friday will be our first two week break of Autumn. We'll enjoy the break and you will enjoy Thanksgiving leftovers and all the great fall foods that store so well!
I sent the email yesterday and immediately after I remembered a few things I needed to let you know about!
- Green Table Foods is back on the order form! Look for new lower prices and some new products coming soon too!
- Gobble Gobble - I mentioned the chocolate turkeys from Anna Tolazzi. Did you see the lovely chocolate turkey at the checkout? It's equivalent to over 6 chocolate bars and brushed with lovely colours. Each one is unique! You can see a photo here. Last year we raffled one turkey off for charity and raised $110! This year you can get yours for $30 - What a deal!
- Traditional Foods wants your feedback! Please fill out their survey at https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dFZHb2FmSlJxeG44VlVJZ3QxV0JkckE6MQ before Thursday October 4th for your chance to win a free cut of beef or pork! We want to know what you are looking for in GMO Free meats!
- We are SO EXCITED to bring you local nuts (yes, some may say that we are local nuts)! This Friday we will have black walnuts (in shell or shelled), heart nuts (so pretty and fun to open) and chestnuts (the sweetest chestnuts ever!) They often run out of chestnuts, so if you want to stock up I'd suggest getting them this week. We hope to get more on the 19th, but it will depend on their supply!
These chestnuts are smaller than those you'll get in the store, but they are so much sweeter and fresher! All our nuts come from Grimo Nut Nursery in Niagara-on-the Lake. Isn't that amazing?
Now for some tips on getting to the meat of these nuts:
How to crack a Heartnut: See http://baileyslocalfoods.ca/files/heartnut.JPG
How to prepare and eat Sweet Chestnuts:
- Eat fresh using a paring knife to cut off the skin and fibrous covering
- Boil - Place sweet chestnuts into a pot with cool tap water. Cover pot while boiling and stir occasionally on medium high for:
- medium size - 10-12 min
- large size 15-20 min
Using a slotted spoon scoop out a few nuts at a time and as soon as they are cool enough to handle, but still hot, cut them in half and pop them out of their skins.
- Roast - First pierce the skin to allow hot air to escape while cooking. Use a sharp paring knife to cut a slash or an "X" through the skin, but not the nut meat. The larger the cut the easier it will be to peel.
- Chestnut Pan - Roast them by shaking the pan over medium heat for 20 minutes.
- Microwave oven - place a dozen chestnuts around a microwave plate and cook on high for 4 minutes
- Oven - Place chestnuts on a cookie sheet and sprinkle with water. Bake at 400 degrees F for 15-20 minutes. Place one uncut chestnut on the sheet with the others. When it "pops" they are ready to eat.
- Enjoy!
We have Snyder Heritage Farms Turkeys and Chickens:
Snyder Heritage Farms turkeys are truly second to none. Our turkeys are raised in a well ventilated barn with ample room for the birds to move around; stress free and well cared for. All our birds are frozen for food safety - it's the best way to preserve quality. We make our GMO- Free feed from our own grain. We blend our wheat, barley and corn with soy and add essential vitamins and nutrients to the feed. We do not use anti-biotics in the feed and our birds are sold drug free. Feed is one of the most important parts of growing a bird. Check out snyderheritagefarms.com for more info.
You can choose any weight range for your family: 12lb and under, 13-15 lb, 16-18 lb, 20-25 lb. Each bird comes with a pop-up thermometer, recipe card and seasoning package. If there is a certain weight you prefer, email us and we'll try to get you one at that weight.
Enjoy the sun,

From Rachael:
The order form for Friday the 28th is now open! It's the week to order organic flour and grains from Oak Manor. Have you tried the toasted porridge yet? What is your favourite flour?
Back on the offering list after Katharina was away for the summer are chocolate bars from Anna Tolazzi! They are my favourite chocolate treat and I love that there are vegan options!
Some meat specials from Snider's Pork Sausages and Traditional Foods:
From Carolyn:
Snider's Pork Sausage will be offering ground sausage meat (i.e without the casings) for making chili, spaghetti sauce, casseroles of various kinds, meatballs, etc. It's more flavourful than using plain hamburg/ground beef. We have 3 "flavours" - country (same as the sausage we've been selling), garlic, and Italian (spicier than the others). and there are only 10 packages of each flavour available.
From Gayl:
It's EXTRA VALUE week at Traditional Foods!
Get an extra pound of meat with any 5 or 6 lb box or an extra 2 lbs of meat with any 10lb box. We have added some new 5 lb boxes for small freezers. Have a look!
This special does not apply to our smoked pork chops special held over until the end of September. Get a 5 pound box for $35.
Enjoy your weekend!

A Message from Maryrose:
Harvest season is such a wonderful time. There is so much produce to pick from and I don't want to miss out on any of it. We still have many vegetables available in BULK for preserving or freezing. In fact I just added half bushels of bell peppers from Edward & Selema Martin.
In addition to that we now have their colourful mums available. I can't wait to start decorating for fall. The straw bales and Indian corn will look great too. I love the cool crisp weather that comes with this time of year. Soups, stews and chili are beginning to make their way back into the menu rotation these days.
One of my favourite soups to make is out of the Simply in Season cookbook. It is in the spring section of the book but I like to make it all winter long. It is a sausage and greens soup. It's quick and easy soup to make. Here is an adaptation of the recipe.
Traditional Foods is has three specials this week.
They are holding over their special on smoked pork chops until the end of September. Smoked loin chops hardly need any cooking time, another quick meal solution. Get a 5 pound box for $35.
They are also offering a 5 lb and a 10 lb pork box. The 5lb box contains spare ribs and smoked ham steak for $26. The 10lb box has spare ribs, a boneless ham roast and smoked loin chops for $52.
We were lucky enough to receive a delivery of grass fed organic ground beef from Vibrant Farms this week. It could not have come at a better time as we just found out that Traditional Foods will not have ground beef in stock until near the end of October. .
The Nutty Bakers is back on the offering list. They are all staffed up at their new shop and ready to provide their great savoury pies and sweet treats.
Don't forget that this is the week to stock up on items from McKechnie, J&D Peters and Barrie's Asparagus. We'll put another order in on October 5th so they are always fresh!
More local goodness:
- Sacred Basil, makes a healing stress relieving tea - Transpire Organics Farm
- Mini Red Peppers, (1 inch round) red stuffing peppers - great appetizers - Garden Party
- Tomatoes a plenty - We are nearing the end of tomato season.
- Naked Seed Pumpkins, These seeds have a very thin see through husk they are my favourite roasted seeds. Lester & Irene grew these especially for us this year.
- Torta - triple crème camembert - Monforte
- Tofu is still available
- There is still some ice cream left. The jury is still out as to if we will have it available throughout the winter.
There are some local events you may be interested in throughout the next week or so:
International Plowing Match - in Roseville, September 18 - 22nd - A "tented city" covering 100 acres will become home to some 600 exhibitors and vendors for 5 days.There will be attractions for everyone ... knowledge and education to be gained by today's decision makers, tomorrows leaders and those who are enjoying their leisure time.
Every Little Bit Helps - Thursday September 20th - An evening for the community to help raise some money for our neighbours who lost a lot due to the fire on King St. in Waterloo on Thursday August 23rd. Featuring local musicians, Shawn Kellerman, Saigon Hookers, Buns and Stagg, Daddy Long Legs and more to be announced.
Monforte is hosting The Hootenanny 2012 - Sunday September 30th - It's classic Pot-Luck.
Bring a dish for 10 people, your own plate, cutlery and glass. If you want to sit down rather than two-step bring a chair or stool. They will put up tents and Chef Mark Cutrara of Cowbell has offered to do some cooking. The Hoot is at Monforte's property on 49 Griffith Road in Stratford
