A member's dish: a salad with roasted beets with feta mint and pistachios

We have a special recipe that was shared with us by some of our CSA members. They sent us a gorgeous photo of this dish featuring our chioggia beets and we thought we would share it here with you all.

The dish: 

arugula
roasted beets
feta
pistachios
mint
shallot dressing

This dish was inspired by a post from another blog called TasteFood and the original recipe can be found there.

With the farm and food blogs, we also wanted to share with you a little about some of our members as they send us recipes or interesting information. We are hoping that in this way, we as the farmers and you as the members, and the rest as family, friends and the greater community who stumble upon our blogs can begin to connect. Connecting is a way for us to support you in your endeavors, just as you are supporting us in our farming endeavor.

So, today we are sharing the website of Chris Brigham. With an emphasis in photography in college and an early career as a graphic designer, he now builds affordable and minimalist furniture out of his workshop Knife & Saw in San Francisco. Take a look at his simple yet stylish (and very practical in a bike filled city) bike shelf design that won in the Play category for the Modern World Awards in 2011 from Dwell Magazine.

We'd like to thank our dear family friends Chris, and his wife Tina, their young son Zane and newborn daughter Finley for supporting us (and sending us beautiful photos featuring the fruits of our labor in action!).
