Parsnips have a naturally sweet, earthy flavor that makes them a versatile addition to both sweet and savory dishes. Before sugar was readily available, parsnips were used to sweeten jams and cakes. Roast with olive oil and herbs for a delicious side, mash with butter for a creamy alternative to potatoes, or add to soups and stews for extra depth and sweetness. They can also be grated into fritters or baked into cakes for a subtle sweetness.

This small farm takes root in the fertile soil of Lancaster County, PA. Using organic growing methods, Eagle Road Farm takes care to control the health of their produce by using only natural, biological means to eliminate pests from their farm. This is accomplished through various methods such as pest habitat manipulation, growing of resistant crops, and cultural/agricultural shifts that make the crops a naturally more inhospitable place for those pesky little critters while making the farmland richer overall.
