Health & Wellness Should Taste this Good!

This Book is loaded with tidbits that will do your mind and body good!

Based on the hugely popular and widely shared New York Times article on this subject, THE 10 THINGS YOU NEED TO EAT AND 100 WAYS TO PREPARE THEM is sure to appeal to foodies, health nuts, novice cooks, and people who simply enjoy healthy living.
Schoolhouse Farms and The Borodino Market could not have embraced a publication that is more in keeping with our personal lifestyle and the focus of our project. We either grow or sell most of these items and purchase the remainder. Our climate just isn't capable of producing avocados or some of the nut varieties we enjoy. However the remainder we can and if we are not currently growing or selling items we will be by our next season in 2010! The store does stock Quinoa (one our ancient grains). The Borodino Market in conjunction with Schoolhouse Farms near Skaneateles will continue to vet the products we can't produce and make them available at the store or on line from the Borodino Market! Keep on living to eat and eating right! Enjoy all the goodness of what good foods have to offer!

Slow Food USA & Living Slow

Living the slow life with food as the focus is as rewarding as it is easy, and it can be done daily by each one of us. Ultimately, it is about pleasure and taste, knowledge and choice. Once we begin to take an interest in the enjoyment of food, and in finding out where our food comes from, we can begin to see the effects of these choices. When we shorten the distance—both literal and figurative—that our food travels to get to us, we are participating in the Slow Food movement. Slow Food is about coming together as a food community—connecting producers and co-producers, coming together on the farm, in the market, and at the table—to create and enjoy food that is good, clean and fair.
Slow Food is also simply about taking the time to slow down and to enjoy life with family and friends. Every day can be enriched by doing something slow - making pasta from scratch one night, seductively squeezing your own orange juice from the fresh fruit, lingering over a glass of wine and a slice of cheese - even deciding to eat lunch sitting down instead of standing up. For example, here in the Slow Food USA office, we take a moment to eat lunch together every day.
