 The Farm Behind the Food: Live and Learn Farms

Last (but certainly not least) in the series of producer interviews filmed and edited by Allegheny College Biology Major and Video Production Assistant Mary Dosch is Live and Learn Farms. They offer microgreens, herbs, edible flowers, fresh-cut flowers and various produce at the market. Check out the video to learn how it’s done.
One of Live and Learn Farms’ specialties is fresh herbs and edible flowers, which grow quickly and consistently all summer long! In the next newsletter, keep an eye out for our suggestions on the best ways to preserve herbs like these so you can carry over some summer abundance into the colder months.

Recipe Corner

We know you’ve been wondering—now here’s what to do with fava beans!

Fat Hawk Farm has been bringing us fava beans, and we thought we would shed some light on this unique bean variety. Also known as broad beans, the tender beans in the pod can be eaten raw and used as a fresh ingredient in salads and dips, cooked, or dried for later use. Their buttery flavor makes them very versatile to cook with, so you could sauté, fry, stew, mash, or roast them. The pods aren’t edible, so they would be best as ‘food’ for the compost pile.

You can remove the beans from the pods by snapping the ends off and either slicing the pods lengthwise or pulling the string on the pod to split it in half. The beans themselves have a thin but tough skin around them. To remove that skin, blanch the beans (boil for 30 seconds), let them cool, and then use your thumb and forefinger to pinch them out of the skin. For more info on this preparation or nutrition facts, check out this article by the Spruce. Below are a few quick recipe inspirations. We have the recipes for the dip and the salad printed at the counter. Feel free to ask for them!
