Edina, MN 55435
Thurs, Nov 3, 2011
Noon to 1:00 PM

At Big Bowl, the chicken stock is a base for so many things that we do; from the sauces and (of course!) the soups. Because of this, our chicken stock has to be perfect…simmered slowly and cooked to perfection. Big Bowl Chef Angel Luna Lopez will show you how to make our stock from scratch at home, and several different easy soups to make with it. The popular free monthly cooking series continues, with attendees each receiving a recipe to take home.

Rustic Road Farm, by the numbers

Imagine a painter with a blank canvas, a teacher with a classroom of new students or a builder with a blueprint. Think of the potential or even the possible pitfalls. It can be overwhelming at first, but once you start, there's a momentum.

I'm the first-time farmer with five virgin, unlplowed acres and an empty barn. But a month later with momentum in place, it's looking like this:

100 pounds of seed potato, planted

1,600 onions, planted

1 new tractor, purchased, delivered, working

3 goats, delivered

35 yards of compost, spreaded

Have tractor, will farm

What kind of farmer would I be without a tractor?

It's pricey but much needed. We considerd buying used or even leasing. But at the end of the day, you want a warranty and service for the "just in case."

In honor of Earth Day

In honor of Earth Day, we are getting a jump start on our three year plan at Rustic Road Farm.

We originally had planned on starting the orchard next year, but we've pushed it to the immediate.

Today, we planted 20 apples trees. That's 10 honey crisp, five golden delicious and five jona-red (developed and patented by Cornell University, my alma mater).

Our goal is 20 trees each year for the next three years. We'll soon plant blackberres and raspberries. I'd call today a very good Earth Day!
