Winter Farm Stand for December 6, 2023

Online ordering is open for the Farm Stand (our online store) until Tuesday at 11am!

We hope you all had a gratifying and restful holiday. Now that it has passed, winter is finally upon us. The harvests are done, the fields are freezing, and our farmers are settling in for the season. Soon the snows will come and cover everything. As the world seems to pause, a warm, home-cooked meal may be just what we all need to stave off the cold and the grey. This week you can order online and embrace the season with our selection of classic winter staples, all grown right here in New England.

Winter is the time for root veggies to take the spotlight, and we have a wide range on offer. Root vegetables like carrots, parsnips, and beets are delicious caramelized on the grill or roasted in the oven. Try out this grill-roasted, herb-crusted root vegetable medley for a simple and healthy weeknight meal.

Another reason to run your oven is the variety of squash we have stored for the winter. Heat your kitchen with roasting acorn, butternut, and carnival squash. Here's a delectable, low-prep recipe for roasting an acorn squash in sugar and butter.

From Sunnycrest Farm in Londonderry, NH, apples are another excellent way to bring some warmth and sweetness into your home. Whether you are interested in snacking or baking, we have the varieties to meet your needs. If you are really looking to put off the cold, check out this easy slow cooker apple butter recipe, and fill your house with some delicious smells.

Additionally, we have plenty of hearty potatoes and cabbages, pears from Champlain Orchards in VT, and onions, leeks, and scallions to season all your dishes. We've even managed to get our hands on some kale from Edgewater Farms in Plainfield, NH!

And, as always, our full range of non-produce items are available. Add some Robie Farm chicken cuts, ground beef, or VT Salumi sausages to fill out your meals!

We hope we find you all warm and well, and though the holiday has passed, we can never say "thank you" enough for your support and community. Thank You.

If you are new to Fresh Start Farms, welcome!

We are a collective brand for immigrant and refugee farmers participating in the New American Sustainable Agriculture Program, a program of the Organization for Refugee and Immigrant Success. We work alongside new American farmers to bring farm fresh ingredients to your table via neighborhood farm stands, farmers markets, our FarmShare, wholesale and through NH Farm to School.

Twenty-three new American farmers make up Fresh Start Farms. Nine farmers are part of the New American Farmers Co-op and grow at Our Farm on Story Hill in Dunbarton, NH. An additional 14 farmers, the Umoja Farmers, grow on land at the St. Paul's School in Concord, NH.

All producers in the Fresh Start Farms collective implement organic practices. While not certified organic, the farmers grow nutrient dense produce without chemicals and in a way that promotes healthy soil, habitat, and environment.

We speak 13 languages, represent 7 countries and grow over 50 different varieties of produce!
