🎃 Pumpkin Spice Latte ☕

This popular fall drink is easy to make at home with pumpkin puree, warm spices, coffee, and milk. Adjust the sweetness to taste and top with whipped cream and an extra sprinkle of pumpkin spice, if desired.

It’s a great way to enjoy some of the seasonal produce in a VINES Farm Share. Swipe through for the ingredients and instructions! 👉

Grow Binghamton Fall Session

This week, Grow Binghamton learned about Cover Cropping. They learned the difference between the types of cover crops, the considerations when choosing a cover crop, and what kinds of amendments different cover crops do to the soil.

The youth were then tasked with direct seeding seven beds with a cover crop. These pictures show Grow Binghamton prepping the bed and planting an oats and peas mix. This will add nitrogen to the soil and provide organic matter to the bed.

There's still space available in next weekend's hands-on workshop, 'Cooking with Grains and Legumes'!

✅ Register here: vinesgardens.org/events/

Explore a few nourishing and comforting bowls that celebrate simple ingredients and rich flavors. We’ll make a vibrant kitchari and a soothing congee (jook), each showcasing how common grains and legumes transform into satisfying, soul-warming meals. We will also prepare a fragrant seasonal broth, highlighting vegetables from the CSA to create a light yet deeply flavorful dish that’s adaptable, restorative, and perfect for fall and the cold winter.

This workshop is FREE and open to the public. A suggested donation of $5-$10 is appreciated.
