From Field to Fork: The Harvest Season at Gwillimdale Farms

September marks the beginning of one of the most exciting times of the year at Gwillimdale Farms: harvest season.

Parsnip and Pear Soup

Our Parsnip and Pear Soup blends earthy parsnips with the natural sweetness of ripe pears, creating a smooth and comforting dish that’s perfect for the season.

Our Beet Burnt Basque Cheesecake is a showstopper with a twist — creamy, caramelized, and kissed with the earthy sweetness of fresh beets. A vibrant take on the classic that’s as beautiful as it is indulgent.

Chef John’s Potato Roses

Baked rose-shaped potato gratins would be great for entertaining, since you can make them ahead, and keep them warm in the pan, or cool and reheat in the oven when you are ready to serve. The technique is straightforward, but make sure you season the potatoes generously.

Spooky Carrots

Our roasted carrots are dressed up for Halloween with spooky carved faces, then drizzled with a rich chocolate balsamic glaze. A playful twist that’s equal parts festive and delicious.

Potato Mummies

These spooky Potato Mummies are creepy-cute and totally delicious. Made with creamy mashed potatoes wrapped and accessorized with olive ‘eyes’ and veggie details, they’re a playful treat for any Halloween table.
