Don't have access to a $20,000 brick pizza oven? A $5.00 pizza stone will give you the same results!
I love selling at the farmers market and I love the farmer camaraderie. It’s sort of the modern-day equivalent of what might used to happen at the grain tower in the mornings.
But what farmer Jodee Ellett doesn’t necessarily enjoy is all the preparation and time that goes into selling her food at market. A local food hub would give her more opportunities to sell her harvest with less organizational work. We’ll play a snippet from that interview along with three other selections from interviews we loved from 2012.
After that, we speak with Matthew Locricchio about how to get teenagers to be more adventurous eaters.
Mary Lu Orr uses some dried flowers, plants and herbs to make decorative bouquets that double as fireplace starters.
And then her son, Chef Daniel Orr, fires up the oven to make thin crust pizza pies.
