Pictured above: Bradford Family Okra
Hello chefs,
This week is all about okra - we’re running a major sale as production of our plants is peaking and we can hardly keep up with it! Prices will be as low as $2.34 per pound and no higher than $3 per pound - a 40% discount off our listed prices. They won’t be this low again so take advantage of the opportunity - buy extra okra if you can handle it, we don’t want to throw any away this week at all!
We have about 30lbs of tequila peppers available this week.
For a limited time, if you order banana peppers you’ll be receiving Dorr Farms’ mixed Baby Banana peppers. Seasonal and fleeting. These peppers boast a beautiful assortment of flavor and color.

SPECIAL REQUEST: We kindly urge you to consider adding at least one of our own Bradford Farm grown crops to your weekly orders. We are working with quite a number of other farms to bring you the best access to regional flavor that we possibly can, but the heartbeat of our farm is our homegrown crops. We can’t exist without moving our own crops too. So please review the crops we offer under Bradford Farm Crops below and consider adding one or more of them. It helps us a ton.

NEW Tequila Peppers 
For a very limited time we have some very delicious and beautiful semi-sweet tequila peppers from a small, local farmer we’re helping sell surplus for. Only 30 pounds available! Then it’s likely gone for a while.
NEW! Butterbaby Butternut Squash - Clem’s Organic Gardens (Appalachia - NC)
A true miniature butternut, Butterbaby produces small, remarkably uniform fruits — tan skin, deep orange flesh, running about a pound each. That consistency alone makes it a rare find for a professional kitchen where portion control usually means trimming down, not simply plating whole.
But size isn’t the reason we’re excited.
Clem grows these in the alluvial soils along the Davidson River — the same ground that gives his potatoes and root crops their depth. Winter squash spend months on the vine building sugar and dry matter before harvest, so soil, water, and time all show up in the finished fruit. That’s especially true here: the flesh cooks down smooth and creamy, with a sweetness and nuttiness that variety trials have repeatedly ranked above Honeynut for flavor.
The skin is thinner than a standard butternut, too — less fabrication, less waste, more usable yield per case.
For the Kitchen
• Roast whole until deeply caramelized, split, finish with cultured butter
• Halve and roast as a composed individual vegetable course
• Confit in olive oil or brown butter
• Purée for soups, sauces, ravioli filling, or mousseline
• Roast and glaze with maple, cider, chile, or warm spice
• Grill over live fire, finish with acid and herbs
• Stuff halves with grains, mushrooms, sausage, or whatever’s in season
The uniform size means a whole or half squash lands on the plate as an intentional portion, not an oversized afterthought.
Butterbaby gives you the density and flavor of a good butternut in a format built for the plate — and grown by someone whose ground does as much work as the seed.
Small squash. Not small flavor.
Green Bell Peppers - Wild Hope Farm
We are now bringing in our green bell peppers from Wild Hope Farm. The flavor is spectacular and the texture is even better. There’s a subtle sweetness and minerality to the profile that I’ve not tasted in other green bell peppers we’ve supplied. I will eat an entire pepper plain, it’s so enjoyable. It’s quality is truly second to none and we’re proud to have these peppers on our offering.
