From Kyle at Wedel Grazing Acres: “We’ve added cured smoked ham steaks. Great for the grill or oven. Our favorite recipe is to marinate in equal amounts lemon juice, brown sugar and horseradish for few hours then throw on the grill for 6-8 minutes each side!!!”

From Bob with Country View Dairy: “Just added five new yogurt flavors (Lime, Peach, Blueberry, Black Cherry & Raspberry) in 3 lb economy/family-size tubs.”

From Julie at Zaza’s Pasta:”I’ve added several new items – single serving frozen entrees featuring local, Iowa produce and/or meats. They include 1) Zucchini Parmigiana with Spaghetti Aglio Olio; 2) Farmer’s Market Veggie Lasagne; and 3)Sausage & Peppers with Couscous. I’ve also added Basil-Pine Nut Pesto and Pesto-Pomodoro Focaccia.”

From Jake and Amber at Good Shepard Grass Farm: “We’ve been busy here on our farm. Besides the normal raising of chickens and cattle, we added aronia berries (by the hundreds), asparagus (by the thousands), and nut/fruit trees (by the hundreds). It’s been an exciting time. Note:  we have chicken breasts (limited quantity) and we’ve processed some new beef for this summer, so we’ve temporarily lowered steak prices from beef from our last processing while supplies last!”

From Julie at Broadhorn Farm: “Thanks to all our customers for their patronage and patience as we grow our Belted Galloway beef herd. After taking a break last cycle, we are back with Short Ribs on sale for $3.69/lb (regularly $5.50) and Rump Roast on sale for $3.83/lb (regularly $6.50).
