Not sure what to do with one of the unusual ingredients in your Homestead Box? You’re in the right place!
We’ve put together simple recipe ideas and beginner-friendly uses to help you try something new without having to stare suspiciously at it from across the kitchen.
This is also a growing inventory of the plants, herbs, fruit and produce we currently grow, or have grown over the years, on our little homestead. It includes things we’ve used ourselves and ideas we’d still love to try.
Simply browse through the list, find the ingredient you’re looking for, and hopefully you’ll find a little information, a simple recipe, or an idea to get you inspired!
Not everything listed is available at all times. We’re a small homestead and keep limited quantities, so availability changes with the seasons, harvests and whatever the farm decides to give us!
