Farmers Fare
Recipes and Cookbooks!!

Here is a photograph of some of the participants in the STAR program being held at Farmers Fare twice a week for the winter cycle. They are diligently and joyfully squeezing oranges for one of the recipes which will end up gracing the pages of this lovely hand made book you see featured on the right of the picture.

Apparently the unusual choice of a mouse for the cover photo has something to do with the movie "Ratatouille"!

Come on along and hang out at Farmers Fare

Bring your children, sip a latte, eat cake, play a board game, chat with a friend, laugh out loud, check your e-mails, watch the world go by on Route 90.

We actively encourage you to linger in our Cafe, especially so after the lunch crowd has vanished and the afternoon light lingers towards dark!

We look forward to seeing you soon,

The Farm Team

La Cucina Italiana by Nancy Harmon Jenkins
Friday February 26th and March 5th 2010 6 to 8:30pm

Farmers Fare is excited to be collaborating with Nancy Harmon Jenkins and the Penobscot School in Rockland to offer this cooking class centered around Italian cuisine. Nancy is a food writer, journalist and historian with primary expertise in Mediterranean cultures and cuisine, and secondary strong interests in sustainable agriculture and farm-to-market connections which makes her the perfect partner for Farmers Fare.

Hailed as "an anthropologist of the human soul as revealed through food" (Amazon.com), Nancy Harmon Jenkins has written frequently about Mediterranean cuisine. Her latest release, Cucina Del Sole: A Celebration of Southern Italian Cooking joins her other highly regarded titles such as The Essential Mediterranean, Flavors of Tuscany, The Flavors of Puglia, and The Mediterranean Diet Cookbook available in bookstores worldwide.
Fee is $60 per person which includes meals and recipes.
For more information and to register click HERE, thank you.
If you register for both of the classes you pay only $100 for the two!!

At the end of the session the children will cook and present a meal to their families!! Yea for that!!

More local beef patties for Camden schoolchildren!
 We are very excited to announce that Camden Regional High School is taking a sample batch of local beef patties produced at Farmers Fare from the meat of select nearby farms, with the prospect of supplying the future needs for hamburgers at the school. This is a happy and welcome extension of the local beef program Farmers Fare has already established with the Camden Rockport Elementary School, where they delivered another 216 burgers today.
