This week it was sheep shearing time. Before our lambs are born, we have Kevin Ford, a professional sheep shearer come to the farm to remove their thick winter coat. This helps keep the sheep clean when they are birthing and nursing their babies. He uses the old fashioned method, instead of an electric razor. […]

Quick, healthy and incredibly delicious, I absolutely adore these tiny and perfect bursts of flavor. These little bundles are an out-of-this-world and simple appetizer to bring to a party, or a nice addition to a soup for lunch. I recently made these for a party and they were the crowd favorite, above some more complicated dishes I

A nutrition client I saw recently reminded me of this post I’ve been meaning to write. I love working with moms of little kids. They are really receptive to my suggestions but often seem to be stuck in certain conventional ideas of what “mothering” should be. Many of them find comfort in baking with their

I am either cooking, cleaning up the kitchen, or studying for egg-zams (ha ha, actually no, memorizing biochemistry and microbiology

I’ve been wanting to do this project for a while now, and with a long weekend (and my birthday today) I decided to give myself a present and make it happen. Digging around in my cabinets searching for spices is frustrating. This system makes it super easy so find what you need. Ideally, the herbs

These crackers are to die for! They’re crunchy, salty and extremely flavorful. I served these with some chicken liver pate to Diane Sanfilippo and Liz Wolf when they recently spent the night on the farm with our family while they were in town for a Balanced Bites workshop. Feel free to play around with the

My husband and I love visiting cities for vacation. In country settings, we feel restless; like we should be doing something (weeding, tending crops, moving animals). In a city, there is not much for us to do, so we can really unwind. Montréal is one of my favorite places. To me, it’s really transporting due

We’ve had a busy week here on the farm. I got to attend (part of) the Ancestral Health Symposium at Harvard University and then hosted the Sustainable Feast in the Barn on Friday, August 10th for many of the attendees in our barn at Clark Farm. In addition, we hosted Michelle Tam of Nom Nom
