			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I think there are fewer things more pleasant than strolling on a balmy summer evening. So it was when we went to the Grange Fair Thursday night. There&#8217;s also a palpable excitement in the crowd. Is this what draws people to fairs, and what has for so long?</p>
<p><a rel="attachment wp-att-4981" href="http://www.buckscountytaste.com/2010/08/2010-middletown-grange-fair/100_2138-2/"><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-4981" title="Grange Fair chicken dinner; photo by L. Goldman" src="http://www.buckscountytaste.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/08/100_2138-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a>We were very hungry, arriving about 7 pm, so didn&#8217;t go for the famous Chicken Dinner. But I think we should have. We started with hot dogs, then a Caesar chicken wrap later, with soft ice cream for Mark. I don&#8217;t like to be negative or preachy, but I must say, the food at the Grange Fair leaves much to be desired. Lots of fried stuff and, let&#8217;s be honest, junk. And yours truly has been dealing with a digestive problem all day. Enough said. You may want to eat before going. In fact, it&#8217;s kind of ironic that the best food at the fair is in the Exhibition Halls, where local farmers and gardeners bring their veggies for judging.</p>
<p>But we were in a rush. Mark wanted to see the bunnies! And the goats, the sheep, and the cows, etc. But especially the bunnies. In a previous life he had house rabbits, and we probably would today if we didn&#8217;t have a terrier and a schnauzer. I also really enjoyed watching one of the judging events for sheep. All of the handlers/owners were teenagers. It still amazes me to see kids and teens so into raising animals in this day and age of tech toys and other forms of entertainment. But it is alive and well in Bucks, and hope it stays that way.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s some photos from the evening.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This <strong>Wednesday, April 7th</strong>, the <a href="http://www.buckscountyfoodshedalliance.org/" target="_blank"><strong>Bucks County Foodshed Alliance</strong> </a>will host a showing of the 2009 Optic Nerve Productions’ feature-length documentary, <strong><a href="http://www.ingredientsfilm.com/" target="_blank">Ingredients</a></strong>. The film illustrates how people around the country are working to revitalize their connection to their food sources.</p>
<p>The event, which is open to all and free of charge, is held at the <strong>Wrightstown Village Library</strong>, 727 Penn’s Park Rd., in Wrightstown, beginning at <strong>7:30 pm</strong>.</p>
<p>A little info from the <em>Ingredients</em> website:</p>
<blockquote><p>Narrated by Bebe Neuwirth, the film takes us across the U.S. from the diversified farms of the Hudson River and Willamette Valleys to the urban food deserts of Harlem and to the kitchens of celebrated chefs Alice Waters, Peter Hoffman and Greg Higgins. Ingredients is a journey that reveals the people behind the movement to bring good food back to the table and health back to our communities.”</p></blockquote>
<p>Ingredients received the prestigious Silver Sierra Award for Documentary Filmmaking at the 2009 Yosemite Film Festival and has had showings at film festivals and environmental events across the country since its premiere at the Globians DocFest in Berlin, Germany, August 13. It was produced and filmed by cinematographer <strong>Brian Kimmel</strong>; written, directed and edited by <strong>Robert Bates</strong>; researched and produced by <strong>Debra Sohm Lawson</strong>. Executive producers are <strong>Corinne Bourdeau</strong> and <strong>Mary Elizabeth Murphy</strong>.</p>
<p>This event serves as the BCFA’s April general meeting. For more information, go to: <a href="http://www.BucksCountyFoodshedAlliance.org">www.BucksCountyFoodshedAlliance.org</a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As I sit here writing, appropriately in my kitchen, I look out into my backyard and see the buds on the rhododendron. It&#8217;s sunny &#8211; for a change &#8211; and I&#8217;m seeing lots of green. I&#8217;m quite amazed, in fact, at the amount of green &#8211; chartreuse, really &#8211; that I see on my neighbors&#8217; lawns across the street, only two weeks after so much snow.</p>
<p>What is disappearing, however, are the vegetables I froze last summer and fall. As I reached into the freezer last night for some tomatoes to make sauce, I did a quick count, and sighed. How long would it be before I could taste this year&#8217;s crop of tomatoes?</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-1417" title="Fresh From The Market; photo by MSClipArt" src="http://www.buckscountytaste.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/Fresh-From-The-Market.jpg" alt="Fresh From The Market; photo by MSClipArt" width="300" height="271" />One of my goals this growing season is to buy one of those vacuum-pack machines because, well, we joined a local CSA last year for the first time. What&#8217;s a CSA, you ask? Something quite special.</p>
<p><strong>What is it?</strong> CSA stands for &#8220;Community Supported Agriculture.&#8221; In short, it&#8217;s a way for consumers to buy into an agricultural enterprise, receive fresh, natural food seasonally and support our local food system.</p>
<p>Most CSAs are farms, and involve vegetables herbs, fruits and flowers, although other types &#8211; meat, fish &#8211; are popping up all the time, here and in other parts of the country. We are fortunate to have a healthy crop of CSAs here in Bucks County (and nearby) too. All told, about <span style="color: #000000;"><del>seven</del> </span>twelve, including one poultry farm CSA. And most use organic, or nearly organic, methods of farming.</p>
<p><strong>How does it work?</strong> I&#8217;ll use a CSA farm as an example, since that&#8217;s most common. You buy a &#8220;share&#8221; per season (usually late May through mid-November), which entitles your household to a weekly portion of produce, grown on that farm. Many CSAs offer half-shares, too, which is what Mark and I have since we are only two adults. We pick up every other week. Some people go in with other family members or friends and buy a share together.</p>
<p>Most CSAs also ask that each household volunteer a certain number of hours per season but it&#8217;s quite reasonable. Our CSA, <a href="http://www.anchorrunfarm.com" target="_blank"><strong>Anchor Run Farm</strong> </a>in Wrightstown, asks full share members to put in 8 hours over the course of the season, half-share members only 4 hours. Tasks vary from helping with the garlic harvest (an&#8221; all hands on deck&#8221; type event) to weeding and other necessary farming maintenance.</p>
<p>At Anchor Run, we pick up every other week (because we are half-share members) which involves going to the farm on a Monday or Thursday, filling our bags with the vegetables picked that week, and doing some &#8220;pick-your-own&#8221; of other vegetables or fruits. The farmers tell us how much we can pick, trying to make sure there will be enough to go around for all members. Some CSAs have you pick all your own vegetables.</p>
<p>Many CSAs also offer other local products from partner farms, like eggs, poultry, beef, bacon, mushrooms, preserves, etc. that you can buy at the same time you pick up your share. And many also offer special educational programs for little family members, community events and cooking demos.</p>
<p><strong>Why do it?</strong> Ah. When I wrote out the check last year, I was a bit taken aback. &#8220;For vegetables?&#8221; I thought, &#8220;This better be worth it.&#8221; And it was. Everything they say about eating FRESH vegetables is true: they taste so much better, they last so much longer, and the variety is delightful. Vegetables we had given up on &#8211; like radishes &#8211; were happily welcomed back into our home. We made new friends, like garlic scapes (the top green part of growing garlic, available for a brief time in the spring).</p>
<p>Another aspect of belonging to a CSA is that you truly cook seasonally &#8211; you have to; the refrigerator is bursting. This is what most intimidated me going in. Would I know what to do with it all? Would too much end up in the compost heap? But instead I found it exciting and fun. [See the excellent article, <em>"Diary of a CSA Member,"</em> by Anchor Run member Tina Bashline below. She describes it perfectly.]</p>
<p>And we are not vegetarians (if you are regular readers of Bucks County Taste you know this!). Nor are we big salad eaters, or even, particularly gung-ho about vegetables. My point being, if WE could do it, and be converted, well, then, anyone could.</p>
<p>Another interesting side effect I noticed was that I went to the supermarket much less last summer. I actually ended up spending less money on food overall because of our CSA membership (my willpower in Wegmans being rather weak).</p>
<p><strong>Who runs CSAs and how can I find one near me?</strong> We have eleven CSAs in Bucks County (and a few more nearby) that offer produce and one that offers poultry and eggs. They range in size from 25 members to over 200. Some have been going for years, some are just getting started. So if one of the established ones is full up this year, try another, newer one. You may be getting in on the ground floor, so to speak.</p>
<p>The CSAs are run by young couples, schooled in farming, like <strong>Dana Hunting</strong> and <strong>Derek McGeehan</strong> at Anchor Run, or <strong>Tom Murtha</strong> and his wife, <strong>Tricia Borneman</strong>, at <strong>Blooming Glen</strong>. Or farmers who come from multi-generational farms like <strong>Susan Snipes-Wells</strong> at Snipes Farm in Morrisville, or <strong>Sandy Guzikowski</strong>, who is a third generation farmer on her family&#8217;s land in Yardley. If you want to support local agriculture and open space in Bucks County, you&#8217;d be hard pressed to find a more delicious and healthy way to do it.</p>

<p>The following article was posted last year on the <strong>Anchor Run Farm</strong> Web site. It made me chuckle. And I think it does a good job describing the life of a CSA household. Thanks, Tina.</p>
<p><em><strong>Diary of a CSA Member</strong><br />
by Tina Bashline (with permission)</em></p>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-2956" title="photo by MSClipArt" src="http://www.buckscountytaste.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/j0227717-300x199.jpg" alt="photo by MSClipArt" width="300" height="199" />In the autumn of 2004, when my family first heard of the newly created Anchor Run Farm CSA, we had no idea what a CSA was. And this fall, at the end of the 2009 growing season, I know that we are STILL learning how to make the most of this amazing relationship between farmers and food-conscious community. Just the other night, my husband, kids, and I were reviewing some of our early CSA experiences and how we get better and better at this every year. For example&#8230;</p>
<p><strong>Year One:</strong> The year we had no idea what we had really signed up for. We thought we were supporting local farmers and open space in our township. So, who are all these vegetarians talking about organics? Greens? So many greens? What do you do with them? How do you even get them into the refrigerator? I&#8217;ll admit it: that first year saw some wasted greens that ended up as compost. We were sad about it, but vowed we would do better next year.</p>
<p><strong>The Next Year:</strong> Guess what? GREENS again &#8211; that first crop of the season, of course! This year, we knew the solution. Use the greens first &#8211; sometimes the same day we brought them home. We searched for recipes and found an amazing number of both exotic and fast/easy recipes. And our two stand-bys were always &#8220;add them to soup&#8221; or &#8220;cook them in olive oil with garlic.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>Year Three:</strong> Are we slow learners or what? This was the first year we really got into the whole concept of &#8220;seasonal eating.&#8221; In other words, those recipes that want you to combine spring peas with summer squash are NOT a reality when you are eating fresh from the farm. If we were going to avoid grocery-store vegetables, we were going to eat only what was in the pick-up that week. That was the hardest lesson: EAT WHAT YOU HAVE; don&#8217;t pine for what&#8217;s not available.</p>
<p>I think year three was also the year that we finally started getting creative with herbs too. We would bring home clippings of sage or basil and just do an internet search&#8230; maybe &#8220;recipe, sage, squash&#8221; and see what would come up. Or, we would get crazy and make something up.</p>
<p>That was also the first time my husband tried making preserves&#8230; basil jelly and a garlic/rosemary preserve. Those beautiful little jars were our Christmas gifts to our relatives that year.</p>
<p><strong>Year Four:</strong> Now, we are getting picky. WHAT do you mean &#8211; ONLY ONE CELERIAC??? (Never mind that we didn&#8217;t even know what it was Year One.) How can we make soup with just one? This was the year that we learned to &#8220;hang out&#8221; near the Share Box in the pick-up room. When the newbie members were saying &#8220;Yuck&#8211;celeriac,&#8221; we could pounce on the rejected roots and take them home where they would be loved. (And conversely, we could also toss our unwanted lettuce in that same box, knowing that &#8220;people too busy to cook&#8221; can NEVER get enough lettuce and would be happy to take &#8220;our&#8221; lettuce home with them.)</p>
<p><strong>This Year:</strong> Still learning. Cucumbers. TOO. MANY. CUCUMBERS. You can&#8217;t freeze them and I can take only so many salads and soups made of them. But taking a hint from previous gluts, we figured it out once again. At Anchor Run, we loved the year of &#8220;too many beets.&#8221; We made sauce all summer long in the &#8220;summer of too many tomatoes.&#8221; We actually mailed potatoes to my mother during the amazing &#8220;year of the potato.&#8221;</p>
<p>So, for the year of the cuke, we learned to make pickles. It was scary the first time, but my daughters love dill pickles. And once we realized how easy canning was, we were pretty sad when the cucumber season finally came to an end. (I am very sad to report that EVERY JAR we canned has been eaten already too!)</p>
<p><strong>Next Year:</strong> What will the lessons be? It&#8217;s hard to tell at this point. But, I do know that we&#8217;ll be thinking more about the farm as a working community. Crops are harvested and they are distributed to be shared among us. We will continue to &#8220;share&#8221; most of our lettuce with others. We will be watching the Share Box for celeriac and scallions and vegetables that others don&#8217;t care for as much as we do.</p>
<p>And most of all, we&#8217;ll be looking forward to sharing good weather and warm conversations with our farmers and fellow members throughout the season. See you then.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <strong><a href="http://www.buckscountyfoodshedalliance.org/" target="_blank">Bucks County Foodshed Alliance</a></strong> will host <strong>Melissa Mantz</strong> of the <strong><a href="http://www.bchg.org/" target="_blank">Bucks County Housing Group</a></strong>, a private nonprofit that serves homeless and at-risk families in Bucks County, at its general meeting at <strong>Wednesday, February 3 at 7:30 pm</strong>.</p>
<p>Ms. Mantz, development officer, will present the Housing Group’s role and mission, as well as open a dialogue regarding <strong><em>a partnership between BCHG and BCFA that would enable the pantries to offer fresh food during local growing months.</em></strong> The discussion will revolve around the logistics of such an undertaking, engaging farmers and market vendors to participate, developing a volunteer base to deliver produce and considering how to fund it. BCHG also is considering offering its Penndel site as a setting for a farmers’ market.</p>
<p>The housing group’s three Community Food Pantries in Penndel, Doylestown and Quakertown served 39,000 individuals in 2009, with community food donations providing the bulk of the support.</p>
<p>BCFA members and interested others are invited to participate with ideas and questions. The Wrightstown Village Library is at 726 Penns Park Rd., Wrightstown 18940. There is no charge, and refreshments will be served.</p>

If you&#8217;ve never been, well, you just need to go. It&#8217;s hard to describe. For this former city girl, it’s a wonder. It&#8217;s one of the reasons to live in Bucks County, as far as we&#8217;re concerned.</p>
<p>This isn&#8217;t technically a &#8220;food&#8221; event. Even though there are many animals there, they are the living kind &#8211; rabbits, pigs, chickens, cows, you name it. The fair is a reminder that Bucks County is still an agricultural place, where people raise livestock and are proud of it.</p>
<p>But…there will be food, of course. The fair is famous for its <strong>chicken dinners</strong>. According to an article in <a href="http://www.phillyburbs.com/news/local/the_intelligencer/the_intelligencer_news_details/article/27/2009/august/12/grange-fair-opens-today-1.html&gt; " target="_blank"><em>The Intelligencer</em> </a>today, 4,000 barbecue dinners are expected to be served this year at the fair, surpassing last year&#8217;s approximately 3,700 dinners. The chicken dinner includes a half chicken, butter parsley potatoes, corn on the cob, cranberry sauce, roll and butter, beverage and ice cream. Not exactly low-carb, but we&#8217;ll be there to sample the goods and post photos (it&#8217;s our responsibility to our readers). There is also a big food court with just about every summer time fair food you&#8217;d want. <a href="http://www.plumsteadvillegrange.org/" target="_blank"><strong>The Plumsteadville Grange</strong> </a>food booth will be selling <a href="http://haringbrothersmeats.com/default.aspx" target="_blank"><strong>Haring Brothers</strong> </a>hot dogs and hamburgers.</p>
<p>Check out the schedule of events in <a href="http://www.phillyburbs.com/news/news_details/article/27/2009/august/09/fair-will-offer-traditional-events-and-music-1.html" target="_blank">The Intell</a>, along with the schedule of events on the <a href="http://www.grangefair.org/" target="_blank">Grange Web site</a>.

It turns out that May is National Barbecue Month. I guess there was some other major event being celebrated on July 4th so they decided it wouldn&#8217;t be appropriate.</p>
<p>Not many major food events happening this weekend but that&#8217;s okay. It seems an American tradition to have cook-outs on July 4th with family and friends. Check out our <span style="color:#993300;"><strong>online poll</strong> </span>(to the right, on the sidebar) and vote on your favorite place to buy meat in Bucks County. For our veggie friends, stop by some of the great Bucks County farmers&#8217; markets listed below for good stuff to grill.</p>
<p>We&#8217;ve included the <a href="http://www.riversidesymphonia.org/" target="_blank"><strong>Riverside Symphonia&#8217;s</strong> </a>annual July 4th concert in our listings. Even though it&#8217;s not officially a food event, if you&#8217;ve ever been then you know there&#8217;s a lot of food going on. A friend once called it, &#8220;competitive picnic-ing.&#8221; The gates open at 6 pm and folks flood in with everything from the extravagant (candelabras and china) to the simple. The concert starts at 8 pm and fireworks follow. Try to get tickets ahead of time.</p>
<p><img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-1031" title="Berries" src="http://buckscountytaste.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/j0313732.jpg?w=300" alt="Berries" width="300" height="196" />The <a href="http://www.ivfm.org/" target="_blank"><strong>Indian Valley Farmers&#8217; Market</strong> </a>begins its season this Saturday in <strong>Telford</strong>. July 11th they will be hosting the <strong>2009 Field to Table Festival</strong> from 10 am to 3 pm. This year the festival will feature a &#8220;Berried&#8221; Treasure berry contest.  Bring your best Berry Creation to be judged the winner.</p>

So, with a typical summer forecast for this weekend &#8211; chance of thunderstorms &#8211; let&#8217;s move on.</p>
<p>Time to take Dad out for some fun this weekend &#8211; and food and wine. There are three venues doing wine-related events this weekend. On Friday night, both <strong>Crossing Vineyards</strong> in Washington Crossing and <strong>Shady Brook Farm </strong>in Yardley are pairing music and wine, while <strong>Chaddsford Winery</strong> is pampering Dads the whole weekend at its tasting room in <strong><a href="http://peddlersvillage.com/overview/overview.htm" target="_self">Peddler&#8217;s Village</a></strong>.</p>
<p>Also in Peddlers Village, <strong><a href="http://peddlersvillage.com/dining/earls%20prime.htm" target="_self">Earl&#8217;s </a></strong>(formerly Earl&#8217;s Prime) has changed its concept, incorporating locally-produced and -grown food into their new contemporary cuisine menu. On Sunday, Father&#8217;s Day, they&#8217;re offering Dads a complimentary brunch or dinner. What a deal! See their web site for the <a href="http://peddlersvillage.com/dining/earls%20prime.htm" target="_self"><strong>coupon</strong></a> and their new menu.</p>
<p>Some fun community events include the <strong>Joyful Noise Music Festival</strong> in Haycock with all proceeds going to the <strong><a href="http://www.foodinbucks.org/pantry.php" target="_self">Quakertown Food Pantry</a></strong>, as well as two firehouse breakfasts &#8211; one in <strong>Riegelsville</strong> and one in <strong>Plumsteadville</strong>. <strong>Shady Brook Farm</strong> is also doing a Father&#8217;s Day BBQ on Sunday if Dad is not in the mood to clean the grill.</p>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t a chance to yet, be sure to watch our <a href="http://buckscountytaste.wordpress.com/2009/06/09/meet-the-wrightstown-farmers-market/" target="_self"><strong>video</strong> </a>of the Wrightstown Farmers&#8217; Market, where you&#8217;ll hear vendors describing their products &#8211; then you can meet them in person on Saturday at the market, or at some of the other farmers&#8217; markets throughout the county.</p>
