A Look at Liver &
A Little Bit of Love!

Today is the day of love, but we’re also celebrating liver this week because of its nutrient dense goodness—which might just be the boost we all need to get us through the last weeks of winter. Broth is also on our menu, as well as crispy chicken thighs! And just a heads up—the ducks are producing less this week so we’ll continue offering half-dozens only.

Read on for more info and come on by the Corner Farmers Market tomorrow from 9am-12pm for your chance to grab one or two of these yummy offerings. See you then!

Celebrating Liver: A Nutritional Powerhouse
Did you know that a 100g serving of chicken liver provides more than half of the recommended daily amount for iron?!

One serving, around 3.5 oz of chicken liver, offers 172 calories, more than 100 of which come from protein! This serving contains 25.8g of protein, which provides more than 40% of your recommended daily amount for protein.

Wonderfully, chicken liver is a complete protein because it contains ALL of the essential amino acids, which are those that your body cannot produce. One serving provides more than 50% of the requirement for all essential amino acids!
One serving also supplies more than 100% of the recommended amount of vitamin A, folate, pantothenic acid, riboflavin, and B12 and more than 50% of your daily needs of choline, vitamin B6, and niacin.

This makes liver an ideal food for pregnant and nursing women. Emma made sure to eat tons of pate during both of her pre-pregnancy journeys! People who eat Paleo or Weston A. Price diets can trust that our livers provide a healthful, clean, and nutrient dense energy source.

Many folks also enjoy feeding livers to their pets, especially those feeding a raw diet. Liver is certainly one food that your dog won’t turn down!

Liver Recipes

Our two favorite ways to cook with liver are by creating a pate with butter and spices and by making a liver dumpling soup. Both methods have their merits, with the dumpling soup perhaps better suited for folks who don’t love the taste of liver.

Happy Valentine’s Day!

When your sweet customer (who has become a great friend over the years), surprises you at a Saturday market with a huge basket of delicious goodies and the most amazing card ever… Your eyes do fill with tears as you’re reading the card.

We so appreciate the relationship we have with our customers and we feel honored to call so many of you friends. Thank you for making our business worthwhile and thank you for being you!

Here’s what our customer/friend wrote in her card:

“This is a gift to honor the both of you and to let you know how much I respect and appreciate you. Knowing your story, the world was wide open to the two of you. You most likely could’ve had more comfortable careers. But, you chose your path based on your convictions and vision. I’m sure there are moments when you wonder why. I want you to know that I am so blessed by you. Thank you for the long hours, early mornings, late nights, cold weather, hot weather, and everything in between. Thank you. In scripture, we are told to honor and care for all that God created. You do this every day of your lives. It does not go unnoticed. Enjoy this gift. I pray it blesses you.”
