This week's meal is a simple supper: roasted turkey thighs with sage, steamed broccoli, and wheat berries. The turkey is from DiPaola's, the sage from Stoneledge Farm, the broccoli from Eckerton Hill Farm, and the wheat from Cayuga Pure Organic. I was particularly excited about the wheat, because last year, when I participated in the Eat Local Challenge in Boston, the only local grain to be found was cornmeal. Now, the cornmeal was delicious, but after a month, one can get pretty tired of corn tortillas and polenta!

Next week is Pollinator Week, and here in New York, Just Food is sponsoring a number of events around the city to promote their campaign to legalize urban beekeeping. To prepare for next week, I finished off my meal with a little dessert of goat cheese and apple drizzled with honey. The goat cheese is from Patches of Star, while the honey is from Crystal's Raw Honey, which was purchased back in Boston, but is produced in apiaries in both MA and NY. Be sure to catch the Honey Fest at the Union Square Greenmarket next Friday, and celebrate your local pollinators wherever you are!
