Presents for the 🍄 lover in your life! (It might be you)
This year’s artist collaboration: talented ceramics artist Ashley Van Houten of Ash Ceramics made this beautiful mushroom globe mug for us, the perfect vessel for your lion’s mane tea.
We missed Beacon today, but we’ll be back next week, wearing holiday bells & bringing our sleigh full of mushroom-themed gifts🎄
Thanks Ashley!
What a week! Despite losing power for 3 days (crew arrived at 11:00pm last night to fix it, filling the forest with floodlights-thanks for giving us back our heat O&R) we have again made it to Sunday and our favorite @beaconfarmersmarket. We have mushrooms for all the holiday meals, and two holiday dishes available as well as today’s Shroomwalla mushroom fusion food. 3 Cheese Mushroom Mac is one of our favorites and the Chestnut Mushroom Mince Pie is a wonderful holiday dessert. Running late(again), we hope to see you at the market!
Wow! Shroomwalla is HERE🥳
Starting tomorrow (Nov 3rd), we will be serving different mushroom based dishes each week. Tomorrow it’s mushroom, kale & pumpkin soup and lion’s mane no-crab cake sandwiches. We have an amazing menu plan involving so many incredible farmers and bakers and food makers, and we are so excited. Please come visit us, even if it’s just to wish us luck!

Sadly we won’t be in Chappaqua 9/28. So as a very special thing this Sunday, we will have wild mushroom medleys! It has been quite the food adventure exploring the flavors of these wild mushrooms: chanterelles, lobster mushrooms, and chicken of the woods. We’ve discovered new ways to enjoy new mushrooms!

Why Lion’s Mane mushroom is a question people often ask. Recently I’ve been reading up on scientific studies about lion’s mane so I can answer the question well. Lion’s mane offers a host of antioxidants and unique nutritional elements, such as iron and folic acid. Studies have been exploring its relationship with neuron regrowth, contributions to cancer treatment, and role in stress management as well. But most important, it adds an element of sweetness to each of our delicious teas:
Lazy Lion- floral, relaxing, and luxurious
Roaring Lion- comforting with its combination of spices
Playful Lion- fruity and peppery, sweet and tangy
You can order our teas on our website (link in profile)
Or visit us for a taste, a chat, and to find out if you are Roaring, Lazy, Playful, or all 3.
Saturdays Chappaqua Farmers Market 8:30-1
Sundays Beacon Farmers Market 10-2
Enjoy!- KC

Four Wall Farm introduces PLAYFUL LION TEA!
A new unique and fun flavor- hence the name- sweet, tart & tangy. Its bright color is as cheerful as the taste. It’s going to be hot this weekend- come see us @chappaquafarmersmarket and @beaconfarmersmarket and have an iced tea tasting adventure:)
I can’t tell you how much angst arises whenever we debut a new product. I double and triple think every single detail, and usually push the planned launch date back at least a couple of weeks. This one started with red shiso leaves from our Beacon neighbor @z4zero.farm, and it has very quickly become my favorite tea, and I didn’t even wait for the new label artwork from @ashlieblakestudio before letting this one out. I do hope that everyone loves it as much as we do.

Wednesday I actually had time to cook a recipe Ive been working on. Mushroom Black Tea Gravy- the most amazing mushroom gravy ever- hubby says it’s a food group. I experimented with a little filming, just in case it turned out well. Wednesday became paving project Thursday, then Friday more paving and market prep, Saturday storms and mayhem, so today is finally posting day! The sun is shining bright @beaconfarmersmarket and we have fans and ice tea and wonderful tasty cooking suggestions. Till 2. (Mushroom black tea gravy recipe will follow)
