Wake and “bake” on your weekend with a twist on eggs Benedict.

While you cook your bacon, mix up a batch of baking powder biscuits (or sub in some English muffins) and bake at 450 for 10 minutes.

Then cook your eggs in the bacon grease…and make an easy sauce with 1/2c mayo, zest from 1 lemon, juice from half the lemon, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of tarragon. Whisk until smooth.

Remove the biscuits from the oven, split in half, top with an over easy egg, bacon, and sauce. Then add about 1/4 cup of spicy microgreens on top and enjoy while warm.

Close your eyes and pretend you’re not in Kodiak.

It’s pretty wild to think that we have been growing fresh lettuce, greens, herbs and microgreens every week of the year for our community for the past 3 years! It hasn’t always been easy, but there is something very satisfying about growing food for our community especially when having reliable access to fresh food isn’t always a given. Sometimes all your venison quiche needs is a little pinch of microgreens to make it pop.

To all of you out there who have and continue to support our efforts, we are deeply grateful. To our past and present employees, know that your hard work has been invaluable to our operation. And for anyone out there who hasn’t had a chance to try our products, 2024 is a great year to start!

of course!

This batch is made with shredded pork and homemade enchi sauce plus a little extra spicy chamoy added into the mix. While we usually like to make the tortillas from scratch, to speed the process we just used the white corn tortillas already made. Sometimes you need a few shortcuts!

It’s squash season! Who knew the little ones would make such a great bread substitute?

Prep your squash the night before by scrubbing the outside really good with veggie wash to get any residue/wax off. Then bake it in the oven at around 375 degrees for 45 mins or more (til it’s fork tender). Refrigerate overnight.

The next day, cut the squash in half, remove the seeds with a spoon, and stuff with your favorite microgreens and filling (a cooked chicken tender and radish microgreens pictured here).

Eat like a sandwich, fiber rich skin and all! Delicious!
