“Everything good, everything magical, happens between the months of June and August.” There is always something so magical about local corn on the cobb in the summer. Tonight’s was sourced by Ruwets Farm in Torrington. Served with honey barbaque chicken on the grill and potatoe arugula salad. 🌽🍗🥔☀️

My favorite way to cook is just using what you have. Tonight it was pork roasted in some chicken stock that had to be used, with all herbs and veggies from the garden. Tomatoes, collards, cherry peppers, sage, thyme, basil, parsley all from our garden. Corn from Tanner farm, kept it in the family. All over garlic mashed.
Side note, leftover pork and liquid was all used to make ragu for the next couple nights.
