Blueberries Farmers, cooks, readers: Do you have photographs and recipes about blueberries to post here? Today, I am featuring an excerpt about blueberries from a beautiful website called www.treesofantiquity.com . There are a number of excellent features on this particular website—all of great interest to me in my goals of learning more about local harvests, trees (including Christmas tree farming) and local crops (including buying, selling, and sustaining local crops). I came across www.treesofantiquity.com while looking for heirloom seeds and for small trees to plant—with encouragement and instructions. This site has both of these answers (about heirloom seeds and plants –and about trees, including purchasing and planting your own) in abundance. If you have recipes to share on this site, please send an upload or attachment to “Justy Leigh” at goodhopeheart@gmail.com for publication here on the www.goodhopeheart.blogspot.com ...

Good Hope Gazette--See other two posts for all about Christmas tree farms and making day long plans complete with Santa, hayrides, hot chocolate...Working in a couple of recipes from the 1998 The Best of Georgia Farms Cookbook and Tour Book for some classic favorites. According to today's online 'Lilburn Patch' article with a list, a favorite for Georgia fans of Southern style cooking is sweet potato casserole*. We could have some postings of family favorites here, and I know will vary from sweet potatoes with marshmallows; nuts; raisins; cream cheese--I watched a Mexican style concoction of bright orange sweet potatoes take on a light and creamy appearance as the cook stirred in what she called 'Mexican cream.' She says it is savory, and it looked the consistency of the custard like Eagle Brand milk in the little cans my mother used to make lemon pie with graham cracker crust (recipes were on the back of the label that wraps around the small can. But we are talk...
