Christmas Week at Pete and Jen’s Backyard Birds Mini-Store
Features - Farmers and Markets
Written by Heather Atwood   

It’s ten o’clock at night and you’re plum out of pasture-raised, heritage-breed, finished-on-apples-and-barley, ham roast.  

Or, it’s Christmas Eve- your first day off this week -  and you’ve been working so hard you haven’t thought one second about Christmas dinner.  In your fantasy life you live in the French countryside, walk around your chateau in your wellies and wax coat and serve rabbit braised in Cote de Rhone for Christmas dinner.  But where the heck would you ever get a farm-raised rabbit at 4:00 on Christmas Eve?  

Or where will you get pasture-raised eggs for your Christmas Breakfast? Or maple- cured, hickory-smoked bacon from that same heritage-breed mentioned above?

I love that every time I go to the farmers market I have the opportunity to meet new people and learn their story. At the Russell’s Garden Center Summer Farmers' Market, I met two wonderful women and chatted with them about their locally made foods. 

First, I was drawn in by a table full of delicious looking sauces. I met Sandra Hunt at Vermont Gourmet Candy Dish. The name was slightly deceiving, as Sandra and her husband Bruce have a delectable line of gourmet savory sauces, jams, and chocolate and caramel sauces. She was a realtor for most of her professional life and her husband worked in business for over 30 years. Making sauces and cooking was always a hobby and they have retired and now spend their time doing what they love.
