What happens to the okra that doesn’t sell at the farmers market? It gets grilled, along other things! Throw them in a bag with a little olive oil and some Avalon Farm’s rosemary salt (which was out for putting in the steaks, right?), mix well and cook over a medium low burner. Yum!

Gleaning, the process of going along and getting the leftovers after the harvest, is mentioned in the Bible several places. Gleaning is good for the next crop, good for the land, and good for the pocketbook. Here we’re gathering up leftover hay cuttings to use as clean mulch in the gardens. It’s about as sustainable as you can get 😀
