Three Years and Counting
June has a way of sneaking up on you in the best possible way. One day you are still shaking off the last of spring, and the next the windows are open, the grill is lit, and the strawberries are ripe and ready. It is the kind of month that makes you want to gather people around a table and just stay there for a while.
This June we have a lot to celebrate. This week marks three years since we first opened the doors of Sweeterson Farms ā three years that started with a little online shop, a porch pop-up, and a whole lot of hope. What has happened since then has been more than we ever could have imagined, and it is because of you. Every order, every visit, every recipe you tried in your kitchen ā thank you. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
As for the recipes this month, we leaned into everything we love about June. Something for a Father's Day brunch that Levi has requested more times than we can count. A burger that is going to make you rethink everything you thought you knew about a PB&J. A chopped salad that is crisp and fresh and exactly what a warm evening calls for. A dessert with smoked maple syrup that is as fun to make as it is to eat. A bonus jam recipe for that extra Monday in June. And two drinks ā one that looks like a summer dream in a glass and one that is going to become Dad's new favorite way to end a Saturday.
Here is to three years, full tables, and everything wonderful that June has in store.
From our kitchen to yours,
The Sweeterson Farms Family
Levi, Carrie, Diana & Phoebe
Sweeterson Benedict
There are some recipes that belong to a person, and this one belongs to Levi. A fluffy homemade biscuit standing in for the English muffin, crispy bacon layered on top, a perfectly poached egg, and a rich silky hollandaise that pulls it all together. It is the kind of breakfast that makes a Sunday morning feel like an occasion, and around here it has become the thing Levi requests more than anything else. Father's Day morning just found its recipe. Make it for the dad in your life and watch his face when it hits the table.
