Serving Suggestions:

  • This week’s email from John starts as it often does — with an update about the rain at the farm — but what I didn’t expect was for John to be worrying about our first freeze. It looks like we’ll be fine, at least according to my weather app, but I was surprised to see the forecast show us dipping below 40 degrees one night next week! Sounds like soup weather — good thing we have leeks and corn coming. Here’s a recipe for a soup that I’d be glad to warm up with next week.
