Gravity Hill Farm - 67 Pleasant Valley Road in Titusville

We think that Gravity Hill Farm (featured on pg. 37 of the Farm Markets of Central New Jersey guide book) grows some of the most beautiful organic produce around. Their produce is available in a few area farmers markets including the Pennington Farmers' Market on Saturday's 9am-1pm and the New Hope Farmers' Market on Thursdays 3:30-7pm. Or, you can visit the farm and purchase direct on Tuesdays 1pm-7pm and Sundays from 10am-2pm. If you have young kids they have animals to visit at the farm as well. Most importantly, they do a beautiful job showcasing the fruits of their labor. For a complete list of what’s available at the farm as well as a fresh list of great seasonal recipes check out their web site www.gravityhillfarm.com



After visiting last Sunday, we walked away with one of their lovely celeriac roots and the following recipe. It's yummy. We added a cupful of toasted coarsely chopped walnuts for extra crunch - either way it's simple, fresh & good!
