Stinging nettle has been used for centuries as a food and fiber source. Did you know that stinging nettle can be a good source of iron and calcium? It is a nutritional powerhouse! A study showed three times more protein than wheat or barley and less than half the carbohydrates.

One final word about bone broth and my encouragement to use all sorts of cuts from all sorts of animals, provided they are nutritiously fed and well cared for. Feet. Yeah, I’m back to that. I just want you to know how precious feet are. It’s difficult to find them, of any species. I can only sell trotters, or pigs feet. In order to sell the feet, the pig must have been scalded, not skinned. There are very few slaughterhouses that scald anymore. My friends, you have a resource available to you not found readily anywhere else. Make use of it!

CSA –
CSA shares are filling up quick! If you are looking for an abundance of fresh veggies (and/or flowers) all season long, consider purchasing a share from the farm this season! This season, the farm is offering a few different options. I am offering a traditional 10 or 20 week CSA for veggies, a 5 or 10 week CSA for flowers, and a flexible CSA option, using market cards. Click the links below for more info! Payment plans are available!
The farm is relying heavily on early season CSA purchases this year, as I move the farm to a permanent location, and build up new infrastructure. This year’s CSA purchases will go toward necessary infrastructure including: running electricity to the property, building out a greenhouse, installing irrigation, building out a cooler + wash pack, as well as paying for necessary costs such as compost + seeds.
Many thanks for the support of the farm –  is beyond appreciated and warms this little farmer’s heart!

Microgreens:
A reminder that I have shifted my microgreen packaging from single use clamshells to reusable glass mason jars. Jars have a $1 deposit that will be returned with the return of the jar. Cheers to fresh, clean, local, and green!
All microgreens are $5 a jar + the $1 deposit
These weeks microgreen varieties include:
·       Pea Shoots – A tender yet crunchy micro that has a sweet pea flavor – great to add to sandwiches, stir frys and salads
·       Sunflower Shoots – A tender yet crunchy micro with a nutty flavor – I enjoy these on just about everything! I love topping them on eggs or a hearty soup!
·       Jazzy Mix – This is a colorful mix with a kick! A nice blend of mild greens with a kick of radish. These are a versatile micro that will give your meal some jazzy summer vibes on these chilly winter days!
·       Asian Blend – This is a zippy blend of tender asian microgreens mixed in with mustard micros. I enjoy these mixed into an orriental salad, or mixed into my morning eggs.
·       Woven’s Mellow Mix – A mix of mellow, yet hearty tender greens. These are great in smoothies, salads, or to top off your meal. I enjoy this mix when I am feeling the need for a little extra “green” on my plate
CSA –
CSA shares are filling up quick! If you are looking for an abundance of fresh veggies (and/or flowers) all season long, consider purchasing a share from the farm this season! This season, the farm is offering a few different options. I am offering a traditional 10 or 20 week CSA for veggies, a 5 or 10 week CSA for flowers, and a flexible CSA option, using market cards. Click the links below for more info! Payment plans are available!
The farm is relying heavily on early season CSA purchases this year, as I move the farm to a permanent location, and build up new infrastructure. This year’s CSA purchases will go toward necessary infrastructure including: running electricity to the property, building out a greenhouse, installing irrigation, building out a cooler + wash pack, as well as paying for necessary costs such as compost + seeds.
Many thanks for the support of the farm –  is beyond appreciated and warms this little farmer’s heart!

The Pasturage LLC of Montague
Another bone broth use: savory porridge. This is perfect in the winter. A steaming bowl of porridge complete with spices like cumin, thyme, turmeric, and cayenne with carrots and collards in it and a fried egg on top is my definition of February heaven. My favorite grain to use for porridge is semolina. Its texture is perfect lending a truly creamy porridge. You can also use grits, polenta, oatmeal, kernza, bulgur wheat or even a box of good ol’ cream of wheat (aka farina). Just replace the water with broth. Experiment!

Maybe a Market Card from Woven Farms might be a lovely gift? If you’re interested in joining a CSA this coming season, be sure to check out the two being offered by Woven & Blackbird Farms, and the different options you have for supporting their farms at the bottom of today’s newsletter.
Vendors attending Saturday February 12th:

Woven Farm of Muskegon
Hello All!
Microgreens are back!
I am hoping to shift to some eco-friendly packaging in the New Year! Keeping the Earth clean and reducing single use plastics is a big goal on the farm.
To help support this goal, I will be shifting my microgreen packaging to pint sized canning jars with cheese cloth covering the lid, rather than the single use plastic clam shells. These jars will have a $1 deposit on them – the deposit will be returned when you return the jar. All jars will be regularly washed and sanitized before use. You are also welcome to bring your own container if you don’t wish to pay a deposit 🙂
All microgreens are $5 a jar + the $1 deposit

These weeks microgreen varieties include:
·       Pea Shoots – A tender yet crunchy micro that has a sweet pea flavor – great to add to sandwiches, stir frys and salads
·       Sunflower Shoots – A tender yet crunchy micro with a nutty flavor – I enjoy these on just about everything! I love topping them on an omelette or a hearty soup!
·       Chinese watercress – This is one of my very favorite microgreens! – It has a peppery kick to it and is amazing in stir fry. I also enjoy topping these on my morning eggs!
Valentine’s Day Special! 
If you are still in search of the perfect Valentine’s Day gift, consider gifting the gift of fresh flowers ALL SUMMER LONG! This year, I am offering a weekly and a biweekly flower CSA. I will be growing over 75 different varieties of florals and foliage, and cannot wait to share those vibrant colors and sweet summer smells with you!
Each week (or every other Week) from July 6th – September 7th, you will receive a large bouquet of in season flowers. These bouquets will include an array of vibrancy, texture, and beauty and are valued between $25-$50 depending on the week.
Included in this CSA share is also a group garden tour that will include a farm picnic as well as a floral workshop.  It also includes my traditional CSA benefits of 10% off any farm swag + farm workshops throughout the 2022 season.
I am offering 15% off my Bouquet CSA this week only, in celebration of Valentines Day! – All purchases will receive a paper certificate decorated with dried florals.
Give the gift of fresh local florals all season long!
10 week share normally $200 —- discounted to $170
5 week share normally $100 —- Discounted to $85
** CSA pick up is on farm on Wednesdays from 4pm – 7pm or Saturdays at SweetWater Farmers Market from 10am – 11am

Here’s the trifecta of bone broth: sip, soup, stew. Beyond that, what else is there? Oh, the worlds that await you! You know how good greens are for you, right? Every time I cook greens, I throw in a few frozen cubes of bone broth. When you make your broth, pour a quart or so into an ice cube tray, or dixie cups, or muffin tins, whatever you have. Once frozen, let them sit on the counter for 10 minutes or so, then pop into a freezer baggie and voila! You have instant flavor, nutrition, and pan-protecting juice that steams the greens while not burning them or adding more oil. I know the dish is done when the broth has reduced to practically nothing and the greens are succulent and delicious!

The Pasturage LLC of Montague
Here’s the trifecta of bone broth: sip, soup, stew. Beyond that, what else is there? Oh, the worlds that await you! You know how good greens are for you, right? Every time I cook greens, I throw in a few frozen cubes of bone broth. When you make your broth, pour a quart or so into an ice cube tray, or dixie cups, or muffin tins, whatever you have. Once frozen, let them sit on the counter for 10 minutes or so, then pop into a freezer baggie and voila! You have instant flavor, nutrition, and pan-protecting juice that steams the greens while not burning them or adding more oil. I know the dish is done when the broth has reduced to practically nothing and the greens are succulent and delicious!
