On a trip to this area in 1894 my Great Great Grandfather purchased some apples from a local grower. Remembering them to be extremely tasteful, he returned the following year, purchased the farmers land and started his first orchard. “I worked side by side with my father learning everything he had to offer. My father passed away in 2006 and mother retired in 2009 making me the 5th generation of Small’s to run the orchard. It wasn’t as easy as my parents made it look but my wife Renee and I keep learning everyday how to provide our customers with the same quality that the generations before me have given. Our son Trevor joined us in 2009 and the legacy and learning continues.” -Jim Small Adapted from: http://www.smallsfruitfarm.com/aboutus.html FEATURED PRODUCE RED KURI SQUASH Red Kuri squash is a teardrop-shaped winter squash with a distinctive orange skin. It shape is similar to a hubbard squash, but it’s much more manageable in size. Its skin is hard but thin, and is edible once cooked.

Bread is served in various forms with any meal of the day. It is eaten as a snack, and used as an ingredient in other culinary preparations, such as sandwiches, and fried items coated in bread crumbs to prevent sticking. It forms the bland main component of bread pudding, as well as of stuffing designed to fill cavities or retain juices that otherwise might drip out. Bread has a social and emotional significance beyond its importance as nourishment. It plays essential roles in religious rituals and secular culture. Its prominence in daily life is reflected in language, where it appears in proverbs, colloquial expressions ("He stole the bread from my mouth"), in prayer ("Give us this day our daily bread") and in the etymology of words, such as "companion" (from Latin comes "with" + panis "bread"). 1.2 OBJECTIVE The Objective of this unit is to provide: 1.

Floral asynchrony Agronomic characters ranging from 10 to 15 days was observed between staminate and pistillate flowers. Differences Germplasm were also observed among introductions for all quantitative characteristics evaluated (P<0.01). An Squashes interaction between introduction and planting cycle (P<0.05) was observed for 50% of the evaluated Multivariate analysis variables: fruit weight, polar diameter of fruit, wall thickness of fruit, fruit color, days to harvest, and total fruit seed weight. Cluster analysis revealed that groups 3 and 5 gathered introductions presenting high yields and larger, heavier fruits. Group 4 gathered introductions with intermediate yields, high seed production, and thick fruit walls. In all cases, genetic improvement aiming to increase the production of fruit for fresh consumption or agro-industrial purposes as well as the production of oilseed should use introductions from groups 3 and 5 in well-planned crossings with introductions from group 4.

    Community Cookbook Curated by Sienna Fekete Designed by Rin Kim Ni Illustrations by Shireen Alia Ahmed This community cookbook was conceptualized as a way to bring together cherished recipes, the memories, traditions and family legacies we carry with them, and make folks feel a little more connected to one another. Inspired by the history of community cookbooks as a tool for community reciprocity and skill-sharing, I know food to be a great unifier. I grew up with an immense love for food, discovering new tastes and textures, and the creative possibility of food—without an extensive knowledge of the practice of cooking itself nor a way around the kitchen. This is my way of learning and exploring food together with my community and creating a community-generated resource that hopefully will inspire us all to learn from each other and try out some new things. Dedicated to my twelve-year-old self, a novice yet ambitious food-lover and all the folks who showed me about the power of good food <3 - Sienna Fekete 3 Table of Contents: Side Dishes / Dips / Spreads / Breads Main Dishes 10-11 Lima Bean Masabeha - Gal Amit 48-49 Sunday Shakshuka - Margot Bowman 12-13 Jawole’s Momma’s Grandmother’s White Beans - Jawole Willa Jo Zollar Teochew Chive Dumplings - Vanessa Holyoak 50-51 14-15 Family Scones - Vanessa Gaddy Harissa Chickpea Bowl With Potatoes, Lemon-y Tahini & Greens - 52-53 Anna Santangelo 16-17 Maya’s New Mexican Hatch Chili Cornbread - Maya Contreras 54-55 Kousa Mashi - Sanna Almajedi 18-19 Muhammara Traditional Arabic Red Pepper and Walnut
