Soup Secrets - next Thursday!
Soup… it’s what for dinner, these days!
I have been making a soup I call “North African Peanut Soup” for many years, and sell it regularly in our farm store. It’s our best-selling soup and people often ask for the recipe. The truth is, I’ve never written the recipe down and each time I make it, it’s a little different! But, in anticipation of next week’s soup class, on 12/14 at 6pm, I have typed up the gist of this magical soup and am looking forward to sharing it with you all. If you’re coming, that is. :)
And after I make this hearty soup before you, with lots of room for Q&A, we will sit down and enjoy it together.
I’ll also walk you through how to save your own vegetable scraps to make a delicious, nutritious homemade stock that can serve as the base of any soup.
We have a few spots left in this class and I hope to see you there!

What’s up, November!?
Tomorrow, Sat. Nov. 4th, we will be at the annual Veg Fest in Portland and hope to see some of you there! It’s a great community event with food to sample and buy, other non-food items to check out, and organizations and businesses like ours to learn more about. Oh, and speakers, too! Stop by our table and check out our interactive activity, learn about some exciting plans we have in the works that have not been announced publicly yet, and introduce yourself - I’d love to meet you! The free event is at the East End Community School from 11-3.
ALSO - we have just announced three new cooking classes in November and December!

Maine Veg Fest, here we come!
We love Veg Fests everywhere, but of course having one in our own little corner of the world is THE best! We will be at Maine VegFest at the East End Community School in Portland on October 28, with a table sharing info about our classes and offerings. It’s a great free event, and we hope to see you there!
Launching our new site!
After many months of planning our new business name and website, and many years before that of running classes and events through our homebase of Frinklepod Farm, we are SO excited to be sending this brand new website out into the world. And with even more plans and ideas churning through the pipeline, we hope you’ll bookmark this site, join our mailing list and follow us on Instagram to stay in the loop! And please, do tell us what you would like to see here. What are YOU plant-curious about?
