Let's Play a Little CHICKEN!
The DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST for August 1, 2014.
Let’s Play a Little CHICKEN!
HI EVERYBODY! We are very pleased to have a new vendor, Grace Acres Farms. Their first product listing with the Harvest is FREE-RANGE ALL-NATURAL WHOLE CHICKENS! You can sign up right now with a deposit of $10 to reserve your own Chicken. They are scheduled to arrive August 29, and I believe the Balance due will be in the $10-15 range for a 4-5 lb. bird, which is a super price. I expect huge interest, and quantities will be somewhat limited, so don’t delay if you’re interested in ordering.
Elsewhere, BLUE LAKE GREEN BEANS are now available, and after Tomatoes (in my opinion) “real” fresh Green Beans have the biggest difference in taste for fresh veggies vs, grocery store beans. And yes, we have POTATOES, red and white, just $2 a pound. A couple of other last minute additions may sneak in as well, so take a look at the Market for this week.
THE MARKET IS NOW OPEN! REMEMBER! You can order until Tuesday night at 8pm. Pick up your order at Leilani’s Gardens Friday afternoons from 4 to 7pm.

The Late July Report
THE DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST for July 25th!
The Late July Report
HI EVERYONE! Hope you’re enjoying the rain. It does play havoc a bit, causing TOMATOES to split. Baaad. That means all our vendors could be a little limited on our red beauties this week, so if you want something specific, go ahead and order now. Don’t wait ‘til Friday to pick them at *Leilani’s*; they might be gone. Otherwise Veggie-speaking everything else is looking at least OK, with Leilani’s having plenty of EGGPLANTS available (several varieties) as well as lots of PEPPERS. Bradley’s Farm still has several more Veggie items to consider, and don’t forget their LOCAL WILDFLOWER HONEY, which is “Bee-licious”! Also, don’t forget about Hanalei’s Bath products: a couple of new soaps, including a really excellent GARDENER’S SOAP. Finally, we are very excited about the FREE-RANGE CHICKEN which will be listing next week! Stay tuned.
THE MARKET IS NOW OPEN! REMEMBER! You can order until Tuesday night at 8pm. Pick up your order at Leilani’s Gardens Friday afternoons from 4 to 7pm.

Produce is Plentiful, plus Local Honey!
The DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST for July 1.
Produce is Plentiful + Local Honey!
HEY EVERYONE! Several Things to talk about this week. First of all, Heirloom Tomatoes are back in large quantities again, so your favorites like “Cherokke Purple” and “Brandywine” can be ordered by name. BRADLEY’S FARM has several new items available now, including bunched Baby Carrots, 2 varieties of Kale, and a couple of other produce items (see “What’s New” on the Market page, but the best news to me is Local Wildflower Honey! Local Honey has an immunizing quality because the honey contains small amounts of the local allergens, plus because it’s a natural sweetener the body seems to handle it in a much more healthy way. I’m no expert, but a little bit of quick research while acquaint you with the benefits. Bradley’s Wildflower Honey comes in 2 sizes. Check It Out.

The DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST for June 20th
HI EVERYONE! Boy, lots of new things popping in this week and I’ll get to that in a moment. First, condolences to the folks at BEEBERRY FARMS who had a sudden passing out of town and were understandably unable to fulfill their orders last week. Our thoughts are with them. They are nack with us and have added Baby Romaine Lettuce to the vegetable section. BRADLEY FARMS alsoe has Lettuce, Bronze Beauty, available as well. LEILANI’S GARDENS has added quantities of Heirloom Tomatoes like Cherokee Purple, Brandywine, Black krim, and German Johnson to their offerings; if you want a particular variety send them an email (see Our Growers) and they’ll do their best. They’ve also upped the quantities of most of their other veggies. It certainly is s a wonderful time for incredibly fresh Fruits and Vegetables!

The DAWSON LOCAL HARVEST for the 1st week of June 2014
GREETINGS EVERYONE, AND HAPPY SUMMER!
You’re should see more listings on The Market page and have a wider selection of Produce choices as well as other items like the free-range pork. There are more TOMATOES, plus making their first appearance of the year are 3 different PEPPERS and CROOKNECK SQUASH. Please take a look at The Market page for this week to see all that’s available!
Spotlight This Week: FIVE HENS FARMS
With an ever-expanding list of products, FIVE HENS FARMS is contributing some delicious diversity to the Harvest! If you’ve never tasted the difference between “grocery store” and free-range pork you literally don’t know what you’re missing. The absolute same can be said for their fresh Eggs. If you haven;t had an omelet or quiche with fresh Eggs it will be an eye-opening experience. GIVE IT A TRY! I think you’ll be delighted, and if not you can always throw the leftovers at me (I’ll just eat’em anyway).
REMEMBER! You can order until Tuesday night at 8pm. Pick up your order at Leilani’s Gardens Friday afternoons from 4 to 7pm.

The Dawson Local Harvest Update for May 25, 2014
HEY EVERYONE! We are getting close to having a whole lot of wonderful Produce available. First of all we have a new grower, BRADLEY’S FARM, which is in the process of getting their CNG certification. They’ll be adding several new items to the Produce section soon. Secondly, LEILANI’S GARDENS has picked their first ripe Tomatoes of the season. At the moment quantities are limited, so please be respectful of others and don’t order all of them for yourself (I know it’s tempting!). FIVE HENS FARMS is also expanding their offerings of fresh pork (I’m not vegetarian and the Bacon is sounding quite good to me!). Be sure to check out “the Market” for the new products for this week.
The Harvest is adding a new vendor, Barbara Roberts with HEALING HANDS, author of a great “natural foods” Cookbook called “Alive Health: Healthy Eating On The Run”. This is a cookbook that’s perfect for the all-natural locavoe with lots of vegetarian and vegan selections that actually taste good, so I asked her to list with the Harvest. The cookbook has wonderful recipes for some of the unusual and esoteric vegetables that are offered on this site. We’re delighted to start off our Recipes section with her scrumptious “Marinated Kale” recipe!
