Summer has finally arrived!
\nIt seems that the summer solstice, just past, has indeed brought us the beginning of hot, humid temperatures. This weather heralds the beginning of berry season, with the first ones being bright red, luscious strawberries.
\nWith last Saturday featuring our annual Strawberry Festival, the Market had gorgeous strawberries as far as the eye could see. Since this is just the beginning of the strawberry season, our farmers will be offering local strawberries for some weeks to come. They will be followed by raspberries and then blueberries later in the summer.
\nKeep an eye out for the marvelous golden raspberries that Peter, of Oakridges Finest, grows.
\nI\u2019d like to introduce one of our new vendors this season. His name is Emerson Kalbfleisch and his business is called L&H Wooden Fixtures. Emerson started his business out of a desire to accessorize kitchens with a creative design, as well as to add space to any kitchen.
\nBorn in Calgary, he moved with his family to Oak Ridges when he was six-years-old and has lived in the Aurora area since then. He spent his summers at the Richmond Hill Canoe Club, both as a professional athlete and a volunteer for their summer programmes.
\nHe attended Cardinal Carter High School and then Georgian College in Barrie, as well as Ryerson University for a Bachelor of Commerce degree.
\nHis other career in the automotive industry took him to Waterloo for a year before he settled in Newmarket with his wife, Nicole, in 2011. Nicole, who grew up in the Midland area, helps Emerson at his booth when she is not busy as a professional esthetician.
\nWhen Emerson is not occupied crafting his wooden designs, he enjoys cooking. His passion for cooking comes from his grandparents on both sides of the family. His grandmother taught him everything he knows about home cooking and baking. His grandfather\u2019s passion and flair for fine cuisine and adventurous cooking opened his eyes to food that he might otherwise not have tried.
\nThe design and inspiration for his wooden pot racks goes hand in hand with Emerson\u2019s passion for food. Currently, he offers 3 variations on his pot racks as well as mounted racks and various shelving solutions. He works extensively with re-claimed and recycled wood, as well as new lumber, if desired.
\nSince Emerson is of German heritage and actually lived in Germany for 6 months, he is contributing a recipe for a wonderfully delectable and comforting German dish:<\/p>\n


\nBEEF ROULADE
\n6 strips of beef cut roulade style or sirloin or rump roast cut into 6 inch strips, 3 inches wide and \u00bd inch thick. Hammer to size if necessary.
\nPickles (garlic dills if possible)
\nOne pack of bacon
\nGerman mustard
\nRice
\nOne box beef broth
\n2 cups white wine
\nButchers twine or
\n skewers
\n1 onion<\/p>\n

Lay out strips of beef and spread generously with mustard on side facing up. Sprinkle salt and pepper and some rice on top of mustard. The rice will cook on its own. Cut up pickles and onion into wedges. Lay bacon on mustard (1-2 pieces).
\nPlace some pickle and onion at top, taking care not to use too much as it will be hard to roll. Roll beef with all ingredients and secure rolls with butcher twine or skewers.
\nHeat a deep pan or Dutch oven to medium-high heat and add oil. Sear the roulade rolls until brown on all sides, about 10 minutes. Do not crowd the pan \u2013 do 2-3 roulades at a time. Place browned roulade aside when seared. Reduce heat and add the roulade back into the pan, stacking if necessary. Add the wine and enough stock to bring the liquid to just under the top of the roulade. Braise for about 45-60 minutes. Check for tenderness at 45 minutes. Roulade should be fork tender when done.<\/em><\/p>\n

Our next Special Event at the Farmers\u2019 Market will be in two weeks, on July 6th. It is the 6th annual Kerry\u2019s place KPAS Appreciation Day together with our annual Art in the Park Day, co-ordinated for the 4th year by artist Deborah Campo on behalf of both groups.
\nThe Art in the Park portion will feature the work of approximately 20 visual artists from 8 a.m. \u2013 2 p.m. The \u201cMoose on the Loose\u201d portion of the event will feature four bands playing at the band shell all day. The four bands are The Manatee Band, Patty McLaughlin with the Song Circle Musicians, Graceland Revival, and Zingalo.
\nThe KPAS Appreciation Day runs in the park from 11 a.m. \u2013 2 p.m. and will feature a B.B.Q. as well as horse drawn wagon rides and numerous games and activities for children. If last year\u2019s event was any kind of yardstick, this will be a very exciting and rewarding day for all.
\n For those of you looking for that delicious strudel, or the tasty Montreal bagels, be sure to come to the Market on June 29, when John Abraham will next be there. He\u2019s coming on the last Saturday of each month as well as on September 14th.
\nSee you at the Market!<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
