Erin and Ben Doherty fell in love with farming in their early 20s and have been growing that passion ever since. They started renting land at Open Hands Farm in 2006 and purchased it in 2008. For them, there’s nothing better than being outside, working with soil and plants, and growing the food they love.

Their farm is currently supplying FreshPoint Minnesota with a variety of vegetables such as beets, bell peppers, spinach, and tomatoes.

Cabbage is at its peak right now, sweet, hearty, and endlessly versatile. Across cultures, it takes on entirely new identities:

· In Korea, it’s the backbone of kimchi

· In Central Europe, it’s braised into sauerkraut or stuffed into hearty rolls.

· In the Caribbean, cabbage is braised with bell peppers, carrots, and thyme

For chefs, it’s more than a side; it’s a foundational ingredient that travels across cuisines, carries bold flavors, and brings texture and depth to any fall menu.

Now is the time to feature pears on your menu. Their balance of sweetness and acidity makes them incredibly versatile across the menu—from bright starters to indulgent desserts. Pair them with sharp cheeses, incorporate them into pan sauces for pork or poultry, or roast them to bring out a deeper caramelized flavor.

Whether served fresh for crisp texture or cooked down for richness, pears are a seasonal ingredient that adds both refinement and comfort to your fall menu.
