Slow Food Picnic

We enjoyed a Slow Food gathering at Local Bounty on June 10.  The food was great, the conversation was interesting, and the mosquitoes stayed away.  A perfect evening!  We even had a visit from a couple of hot air balloons.
 

A variety of salads: spinach and blueberries; fresh cabbage with Asian dressing

Homemade pizza with fresh herbs, sundried tomatoes, and goat cheese

Dessert pizza with fresh strawberries and mint

Crock pot chicken with olives and cherries

Swiss chard and cheese in pastry

Good friends and good food

Backyard Bounty: Windy Hill Berry Farmand Vineyard

Martin and Terese Zelones are owners of Windy Hill Berry Farm and Vineyard.  They grow a variety of berries selected to produce well in this climate including:  strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, red and black raspberries. They also grow a variety of vegetables and make specialty jams.

The Zeloneses also raise grapes.  This is the second year for the wine grapes and the fourth year for table grapes. As the demand for each increased, Martin bumped up the quantity and varieties. Most of the grapes are sold to local winemakers. 

The 42 dozen eggs that they sell each week from their Golden Comet chickens are sold through Local Bounty, at the Coshocton and Dover farmers markets, and in several area stores, including the Pit Stop, Collin's Sanitary Meat Market, Village Market in West Lafayette and the Unusual Junction.
