L’Etoile and Blue Moon Community Farm

by Frank Paynter on September 28, 2004

The New York Times doesn’t necessarily get every last detail correct. Take today’s piece about the Madison Farmers Market. I happen to know that Jake and Kristen who run Blue Moon, our little CSA here at Frank and Beth’s place, supply L’Etoile with a wide variety of veggies but we didn’t see print in this article.

A dazzling array of vegetables appear in L’Etoile’s first courses at this time of the year, in a “sampler” of burstingly ripe heirloom tomatoes, including red Ping-Pong, orange Flame, Green Zebra, yellow Mattina and brownish Black Prince, all from Rink Da Vee’s Shooting Star Farm near Mineral Point, and a salad of mostly wild funghi, including shiitakes, trumpets, cremini, oyster mushrooms and lobster mushrooms.
