Northeast Georgia Locally Grown: Northeast Georgia Locallygrown Availability list for Aug. 29
Good evening Locavores,
It is hard to believe that Labor Day weekend is here already. It may be the traditional end of summer for us but, Mother Nature obviously is not ready for fall weather just yet.
If the heat will bring some rain with it, our local farms and gardens can keep flushing with summer vegetables.
Even though we are planting fall crops we hope to continue with our summer favorites at least through September.
Have a great weekend and a safe one and enjoy local food.

Farm to Table Recipes
Sausage, Pepper & Mushroom Pizza
From EatingWell: September/October 2010
This sausage, pepper and mushroom pizza is just a little more work than calling for delivery (but not by much), but there’s no tipping required when you make it yourself. Plus you get it fresh from your oven, and with whole-wheat dough and a generous amount of vegetables on top it’s far better for you. Add in season vegetables from the farmers market for more flavor!
Makes: 6 servings
Active Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes
INGREDIENTS1 pound prepared pizza dough, preferably whole-wheat (The Bread Lady)
6 ounces Italian turkey sausage, about 2 large links, casings removed
1 green bell pepper, sliced
2 cups sliced mushrooms
1/4 cup water
1 cup prepared marinara or pizza sauce
1 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese, preferably “fancy”
Position oven rack in the lowest position; preheat to 450°F. Coat a large baking sheet with cooking spray.
Roll out or stretch dough on a lightly floured surface to about the size of the baking sheet. Transfer to the baking sheet. Bake until puffed and lightly crisped on the bottom, 8 to 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, crumble sausage into a medium nonstick skillet. Cook over medium heat, breaking up with a spatula or spoon, until cooked through, 3 to 5 minutes. Place bell pepper, mushrooms and water in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on High until just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain.
Spread sauce evenly over the crust. Top with the sausage, pepper and mushrooms and sprinkle with cheese. Bake until the crust is crispy and golden and the cheese is melted, 8 to 10 minutes.

Here at Swisher Hill herbs we are gearing up for fall and the holidays. Football Friday night, Football Friday night! Windy days and coId evenings just scream sitting down to a hot bowl of Nana’s chili, White bean chili or Mediterranean Vegetable Soup or how about a quick meal of Sloppy Joes, simple with SHH Sloppy Joe Mix. You can make great hamburgers or small sliders with SHH meatloaf mix. (We follow the Meatloaf recipe only use 3 lbs. of hamburger make into patties grill, broil or cook them in the skillet. Tacos are easy to make using our South of the Border Seasoning or South of the Border Dip Mix. Check out our full line of dried herbs, spices and seasoning blends. We blend and package all of our products and they all are salt free! Why no salt! So you can add it or not!
I know it seems early to be thinking about the Holiday Season!!! But if you are going to make fresh vanilla has gifts using SHH vanilla beans, the process takes 4 to 6 weeks to complete. We have just stocked a fresh supply of vanilla beans. How about holiday baking? We have Pumpkin Pie and Apple Pie Spice for all your holiday pies and crisps. You will need cinnamon for snicker doodle cookies and gourmet baking delights.
