Thanksgiving Farm Box

Cooking at home this year? Make it easy—and healthy—by picking up a Thanksgiving farm box from a nearby organic farm. Tom Deacon, owner of Fable: From Farm to Table, in Ossining, says their Thanksgiving Farm Box contains their own seasonal fruits and vegetables, such as beets, squash, apples and sweet potatoes, as well as other locally produced goodies, including apple cider, cranberry jam and mini challah rolls.

“The vegetables and fruit are organic,” he says. “The cider is from Samascott Orchards, and the rolls are from Mustard Tree Bread, in Yorktown.” The full list of items can be found at  FableFoods.com/thanksgiving.

Depending on the family, a Fable Thanksgiving Farm Box has been known to serve anywhere from four to 10 people, Deacon says.

The cut-off date for ordering Fable’s pasture-raised turkeys is November 1, but orders for the $125 Thanksgiving Farm Box can be placed until November 15.

To order, visit FableFoods.com/thanksgiving or Fable’s market at 1311 Kitchawan Rd., Ossining, NY.
