From Locally Grown Produce to Sweet Potato Ice Cream!
Today I had the pleasure of picking up our CSA bag from Wenninghoff’s. While I was there I had fun taking pictures of the beautiful produce and even got to take a tour of the hen house with Amy Wenninghoff . There were chickens laying eggs, a cute baby chick and an interesting rooster perusing around the house.

This week we were given sweet corn, yellow squash (see recipe below), white onions, peach salsa, and a huge cantaloupe. It was honestly the best cantaloupe I’ve even eaten and both of my kids ate it, even the picky one!
These snap shots only show a handful of all the produce grown and sold at the Wenninghoff’s Farm.
