Summer Questions in Fall

FARM NEWS

Our first fall squash is almost ready to harvest. Any day now, the butternut squash and sugar pie pumpkins will be clipped from the vine with pruning shears. The orange, heavy fruit will then lay right there in the field for a week or so to allow it to harden up.

Breakfast "Noodles"

It's the first day of autumn and our thoughts are turning to traditional fall flavors like apples and cinnamon. These sweet potato and apple "noodles" put a fun twist on your typical breakfast and are the perfect dish to ring in the new season!

Farm Tank Summit

Food Tank, in partnership with the Sacramento Convention & Visitors Bureau, Farm-to-Fork Program, and University of California, Davis, is excited about the 1st annual Farm Tank Conference in Sacramento this fall. The two-day event will feature more than 35 different speakers from the food and agriculture field. Researchers, farmers, chefs, policymakers, government officials, and students will come together for interactive panels.

Our chief farmer, Thaddeus Barsotti will be one of the speakers at the summit. He recently had the opportunity to speak with Farm Tank for a little Q&A session.
