Caldo Verde is a traditional Portuguese soup that translates to “green broth”. The humble ingredients of this beloved soup are greens, potatoes and smoked sausage. We’re using local collards and organic Gold potatoes from Happy Dirt and Andouille pork sausage from Firsthand Foods to create our version of this classic. To make it extra hearty with a creamy texture, we like to blend up some of the potato and greens and fold it back in. We’ve been cooking this one up for years and are excited for you to try it. Reheat in a pot and enjoy this delicious meal in a bowl.

This soup has it all – sweetness, earthiness, vibrant color, curry spices and incredible textures from the sweet potato and kale. We’ll round out the flavor with ginger, leeks, and a touch of lime. To put it simply – this soup is bursting with flavor and good nutrition. And we’re sourcing local Garnet sweet potatoes and dino kale from Happy Dirt this week. Warm it up on the stovetop and enjoy.
This is our “ode to mushroom” soup. We’ll sauté sliced baby bellas along with local shiitake, maitake, and grey oyster mushrooms sourced from Happy Dirt, with aromatics, then simmer with carrots, local herbs and a bit of wild rice for texture, finishing it off with our housemade cashew yogurt for creaminess. “Maitake” translates to “dancing mushroom” in Japanese as it was so prized for its medicinal benefits that people would dance upon finding it. It’s also known in these parts as “hen of the woods”. They’re pale brown, have a deep earthy flavor and grow in frilly clusters that break apart beautifully for cooking up. This soup is sure to please. Reheat on the stovetop, stirring gently. (This soup was inspired by Nancy from Laying Hen Farm – thank you, Nancy!)
