January has been characteristically chilly, so we’ve been turning to cozy recipes that don’t just fill you up—they warm you up, too! Whether you’re using a slow cooker, a roasting pan or your favourite skillet, a delicious recipe can brighten any winter’s day. A classic pork tenderloin, chicken stew or beef chili is great, but there are countless options to choose from.
Christmastime is here and we’re ready to enjoy the holiday magic. Quality time with family, children excitedly opening their stockings at the break of dawn, delicious meals shared with loved ones, and maybe even a tiny bit of snow (one can hope). To all of our customers, staff and neighbours: Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah and cheers to the New Year. No matter how you celebrate, we hope your holidays are filled with peace, joy and love.
With Christmas, Hanukkah and New Year’s Eve just weeks away, you’ve probably ordered your fresh local turkey, holiday ham, delectable prime rib, tender lamb and other festive favourites. (If you haven’t, please visit our holiday site now to get started!) Next on your list? Completing the rest of your holiday menu, from mashed potatoes and gravy to fresh dinner rolls and incredible sides.
A classic roast turkey is always a good idea, but it takes some time and effort to prepare—and if you want to use your oven for fresh rolls or side dishes, there’s always a bit of a balancing act. That’s why we’re so excited about our Ready-Set-Roast turkeys—they allow customers to create a delectable, homestyle holiday meal with less prep work and space needed.
Gift baskets are back and they’re better than ever! In case you haven’t bought or received one from us before, here’s the deal: Rowe Farms offers a selection of gourmet holiday gift baskets featuring some of our most-loved local products. There’s breakfast food, delectable steaks, charcuterie and more—the perfect gift for someone special (or a treat for yourself).
We’ve been talking about the holiday season a lot lately, and with good reason—December 25th will be here before you know it! There’ll be family gatherings, parties with friends, holiday breakfast with the kids and plenty of other festive meals to plan. But in the meantime, you’ve got dinner to make every night. And as the weather continues to grow colder, what’s better than a hot bowl of homemade soup?
The holiday season is just around the corner, and the Rowe Farms team is already good and busy behind the scenes. Christmas, Hanukkah, Boxing Day, New Year’s Eve and more—it’s all on the calendar and it’s not far away!
The secret to eating well is simple: buy local. Seriously, no matter what your preferences or dietary restrictions are, buying food from local producers and vendors is a great place to start. For starters, local products are delicious! Plus, buying local supports farmers and independent food producers in your region. It’s truly a win for everyone!
Halloween is not an event that traditionally involves a family dinner, and when we think about ‘Halloween food,’ we’ll be honest: we’re thinking about candy (and those mini chocolate bars). That said, families need to eat on Halloween—ideally something quick, easy and hearty. After all, there are costumes to get on and treats to be collected!
Soup season is amazing, but don’t forget that it’s also slow cooker season—one of the best times of year for home cooks who like easy, delicious meals. Slow cooker recipes require minimal prep time and clean up, but deliver incredible taste thanks to that long, flavour-building cook time. Plus, who doesn’t love walking into a house that has a slow-cooked meal warming on the counter? It’s a mouth-watering experience!
Thanksgiving weekend is almost here—it’s so close, we can practically taste the turkey! With beautiful fall weather in the forecast (knock wood) and plenty of food and family on the horizon, we’re looking forward to a wonderful holiday. We hope all of our customers can enjoy the same!
You’ve probably felt a chill in the air this week, especially in the evening or on those crisp October mornings. Autumn is definitely here—and Thanksgiving is just over a week away! Here’s everything you need to know to ensure that you’re ready for Thanksgiving dinner with your loved ones. If you have any questions or would like help placing your order, please contact us. We’d be glad to hear from you.
