When The B’s Larry Carlat asked food writer extraordinaire Ann Volkwein what was catching her attention lately, she certainly had a few thoughts… There’s Rachel Broder turning excess flour into breads, borscht, and Ukrainian Jewish treats at her new BREADNIK stand at the Pittsfield Farmers Market. Sourdough bagels at Hexagon in North Adams. Whimsical, locally foraged gin at Forager Distillery. David Israelow popping up around the region while we impatiently await Four Corners. And that’s before we even get to Hudson. There are banh mi, strudels, seafood towers and head-cheese baguettes; a beloved Becket institution with a serious new chef in the kitchen; food trucks and cocktails overlooking the hills at Avaloch; Oaxacan street food in Great Barrington; a nearly perfect breakfast sandwich in Lenox; Filipino lunches in Sheffield; and a farmstand worth crossing state lines for. In other words: come hungry. 🍴 Head to the link in our bio to read The Great Berkshires Food Ramble for Ann’s tasting menu of restaurants, pop-ups, food trucks, markets, and more to put on your list. ✍️ @annvolkwein 📸 @avaloch.inn by @triciamccormackphotography | @cellolenox | @fourcornerschatham by @luca.pearl.khosrova | @loslopeztacotruckllc2024 #berkshiresfood #berkshirerestaurants #hudsonvalleyrestaurants #wheretoeatberkshires #lifeintheberkshires

I’ve been granita obsessed this summer, and the minute I saw these softball-sized sugar melons at @paleysfarmmarket, I knew exactly what I was going to do with them. I topped the granita with whipped cream and fresh mint and we ate these before dinner because why not! Melon Granita - serves 4 to 6 4 cups fresh cantaloupe cubes 1/2 cup water 3 tablespoons lime juice 3 tablespoons granulated sugar, plus more to taste Pinch of salt Combine everything in a blender and blend on high until smooth, 15 to 30 seconds. Taste and add more sugar as necessary. You want the granita mix to taste fresh, tart and pleasantly sweet, and might need an extra tablespoon of sugar if your melon wasn’t particularly ripe. Pour into a baking dish and freeze until ice crystals appear, about 1 hour. Scrape from the edges with a fork, then return to the freezer and scrape every 30 minutes until frozen and fluffy. Scoop into melon shells or serve in bowls topped whipped cream and a mint sprig!

Trees Can Feel Stress — Here’s How Trees don’t have brains or nerves, but they DO sense stress and react fast. What stresses trees? • 🌵 Drought & lack of water • 🔥 Extreme heat or cold • 🐛 Insects & diseases • ✂️ Injury (cutting, pruning, storms) How trees react to stress • 🚨 They release chemical signals (stress hormones) • 🌬️ Leaves close tiny pores (stomata) to save water • 🌱 Growth slows down • 🍃 Leaves may wilt, curl, or fall early Underground communication • 🌍 Roots send signals through soil • 🍄 Fungi networks (“wood-wide web”) help warn nearby trees • 🌳 Neighboring trees can prepare defenses in advance Sound science (yes, really!) • 🎧 Under stress, plants emit ultrasonic vibrations • 🌱 These sounds are invisible to humans but detectable by sensors • 🐝 Some insects may even respond to them ⚠️ Why this matters • Stressed trees = lower yields 🍎 • More vulnerable to pests & diseases • Early stress detection helps farmers act before damage happens #agriculture #agriculturelife #tree #treelife #treestress
