FROM THE EDITOR

HAILEY ALMSTED — HAILEY@LOCALMEDIA.CO

I’ll be the first to admit it—I’m a fan of pumpkin spice. Yes, that includes the infamous pumpkin spice latte, pumpkin bread, pumpkin muffins … You name it, I’ll enjoy it. And, that’s my favorite thing about October; the overwhelming amount of pumpkin-infused products.

I adore going to the pumpkin patch each year and carving (or paint ing) jack-o’-lanterns.

Back in August, I had already stocked my coffee cart full of pumpkininspired syrups and pumpkin-covered mugs; in September, I filled my closet with pumpkin-toned sweaters; and this month, I’m relishing all of the pumpkin-flavored goodies that I can get my hands on. One dish I can’t get enough of? Pumpkin seeds—and we have a delicious recipe for you in our Tastemakers section, courtesy of Schiltgen Farms.

This October, we’re celebrating the tasty gourd with third-generation farmer Brian Schiltgen, who offers all sorts of pumpkin tips—for gardeners, how to grow diverse pumpkins; for the home decorator, how to keep your decorative pumpkins fresh all season; and for chefs, how to preserve your harvest throughout the year. Find all of Schiltgen’s tips, plus a few tasty recipes, on page 44.

Also in this issue of Woodbury Magazine, we’re celebrating the richness of color with Wendy Doornink of Hirshfield’s. Of jewel tones like emerald green and ruby red, Doornink says, “I see this movement of jewel tones add richness and luxe in places where people just want to embrace a feeling of warmth and intrigue, a little mystery and differentness.” For her tips on incorporating the sophisticated shades, go to page 26.

Happy Halloween, readers!

THE HOGWARTS LIBRARY

IN HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER

OF SECRETS , Ron Weasley once said, “When in doubt, go to the library.” One local family has taken that sentiment to heart.

Charissa Bates and her hus band, Matt, and kids Elijah, Silas and Anya dreamt up their Hogwarts-inspired Little Free Library after their Batmanthemed library was damaged due to wind. “We wanted Harry Potter,” she says. “We dreamt up a plan and sent it to my fatherin-law, Brad Bates ...”

“I am a retired CAD designer, so when the kids asked if we could build one that looked like Hogwarts, I created the 3D model,” Brad says. The kids critiqued Brad’s work and, with their revisions in mind, he built the library. It was painted by Charissa’s artist friend. “... She seriously transformed it,” Charissa says.

“We just love it so much. People come from all over to take pictures and find a new fun book,” Charissa says. “... We love seeing people peeking in the viewing windows and finding a few fun books to bring home.”

Charissa also released a book, The Traveling Book: A Book About Little Free Libraries, which is available for purchase on Amazon.

TASTE

You Go, Grill!

My husband and I recently refurbished my outdoor gas grill. We’ve done this sev eral times before, opting to install new components rather than trash the whole thing. This time, the overhaul was a little more extensive and took a little longer.

From the time I removed the rusted-out burners until the new firebox was installed, I lost about seven weeks of prime sum mer grill time. Once everything was finally pieced back together and fully operational, I was gunning to make up for lost time. I started grilling everything. Tomatoes. Salad. Strawberries. Of course, I grilled fish and lots of chicken.

I could eat chicken every day, especially off the grill. It takes on a wide variety of seasonings incredibly well, and there are tons of ways to enjoy it—warm or cold, sliced atop a salad or grain bowl, on pasta or in a sandwich. The key, for me, is to always marinate it. Even a quick 15 min utes is enough to turn plain chicken into perfect poultry.

I start by drizzling my chicken—bonein or boneless, breasts, thighs or drums— liberally with oil before seasoning to taste with kosher salt, freshly-ground black pepper and just a pinch of white or brown sugar. I almost always use granulated garlic and onion (fresh garlic burns easily), plus some dried oregano or marjoram. From here, I’ll simply add the herbs and spices

best suited to my supper. Measuring only with my heart, I’ll add the following to push whatever flavor profile I’m partial to.

Listed in proportional order, from most to least:

Italian: dried parsley and basil, plus crushed red pepper and extra oregano

Mexican or Southwestern: ancho or chipotle chile pepper, sweet paprika, ground cumin and fresh lime zest, plus oregano and sugar

Mediterranean or Greek: choice of dried rosemary, dried thyme or fresh mint, plus dried or fresh parsley and fresh lemon zest

Blackened: dried thyme, smoked paprika, cayenne, ground cumin and a pinch of nutmeg, plus sugar

This same formula works on practically any meat or seafood—salmon, shrimp, pork chops, ribs and even steak. Winter is coming—so get out there, and get grilling!

Memphis

I’ll admit it: I judged a book by its cover. As I was shelving Memphis by Tara M. Stringfellow, I felt compelled to bring it home and start reading. I sped through Stringfellow’s debut novel because I was invested in the characters and hooked on the premise.

The book starts in summer of 1995 with 10-year-old Joan and her family fleeing their father’s angry outbursts. Joan, her mother and sister, Mya, escape to her mother’s childhood home in Memphis. Joan’s aunt lives in the house with her son, Derek, but they welcome back family with open arms. The transition is not seamless for Joan, who battles a dark memory in the ancestral home.

Part of what makes Memphis a gripping read is that the points of view alternate over 70 years. While Joan, Miriam, Auntie August and Grandma Hazel lead unique lives throughout history, common threads permanently link them.

Packing Tips and Tricks

Vacations are full of fun activities, sightseeing and experiences, but packing for a vacation can feel overwhelming. Here are a few of my go-to packing tips and tricks for any destination:

• Make a packing list, so you are sure to remember all of the basics.

• Pre-pack a few days before your trip. You can edit this down as it gets closer.

• Plan versatile and interchangeable looks. Pieces can be reworn in different ways.

• Invest in packing cubes. This will help save you space and keep you organized.

• Leave enough room for purchases you might make on your trip.

Learn from the Unoffi cial Patriarch

Four thousand weeks is the very approximate length of a life. When I consider my allotment of time on this Earth, it makes me reconfigure the definition of what it is to live a life with vitality.

Dick Hanson was the unofficial patriarch in Woodbury, and he got to a place where

he was at peace when his time came. He peacefully accepted his death with the same fearlessness that he lived life.

All his life he chose joy. He was a powerhouse in the story of his own life with his circle of family and friends. Hanson will always be remembered for his fearless independence, his unconventional intelligence and his aura of gentleness. He was a fountain of knowledge and at the heart of it all, a truly humble soul. His experience lent him much wisdom, which many were enlightened with. He would want you to consider the possibility that many of the things you are already doing are more meaningful than you assumed.

He practiced things on purpose, lived

a full meaningful life and fought to the end trying to perfect selfless love.

Learning from Hanson, I am a bit more at peace with things. Like him, I no longer believe, deep down, that I’m going to simply get to the point where I’ve reached the summit of great things where I can just keep walking along the plateau with little effort. Life will always be full of challenges and goals

Three students receive national recognition for their creations.

By Ava Diaz

THREE SOWASHCO STUDENTS showcased their award-winning work at Carnegie Hall in New York City this past June. Among 40,000 other student participants and more than 260,000 pieces submitted, Bridgitte Thao and Shadia Seifedin received gold medals and Nicole Kim received a silver medal from the Alliance for Young Artists & Writers’ Scholastic Art & Writing Awards program.

Bridgitte recalls countless days reading at the library with her father. Recognizing the power of words, she began to jot down her own ideas in a collection of notebooks she accumulated in the fourth grade. Now, Bridgitte has reconnected with those same collec tions. “At one point, I discovered the art of poetry. You can encapsulate so many emotions in so few lines, and I thought that was incredible, and I wanted to challenge myself,” she says.

The collection of poems is inspired by the structure of George Ella Lyon’s Where I'm From and features a series of items from her childhood that once held no meaning, but now have nostalgic sig nificance in her older years, she says.

“I feel very proud of myself, but when I got the medal in the mail, I felt very proud of the people who came before me … Like my mom who is an immigrant and came here from China in 2003,” Bridgitte says. “Getting this medal was not only gratifying for me ... but it shows to my mom and others around me that hard work does pay off.” (Read The Unveiling at artandwriting.org.)

Seifedin says she uses art to express herself and her interests. Her piece, Still Life, combines her favorite pair of shoes (Vans she purchased in her native country of Ethiopia) with her favorite animal, a frog. “Ever since I was a child, I loved drawing and painting and every

thing that has to do with art,” she says.

As an avid art student, Seifedin was a part of Advanced Placement (AP) art courses and was encouraged by her teach er Tricia Schmidt to showcase her talent.

“Winning this national award shows that I am capable of achieving things I never thought I could and also proves to me that my work in the eye of others is indeed good,” she says.

Experimenting with jewelry design from extra supplies from her mom, Nicole began crafting a treble and bass clef out of metal. Using those elements as the center piece of her bracelet, she also fused her favorite color purple into the mix. Her inspiration for the musical elements comes the role that music plays in her life as a violin, piano and clarinet player. “... [Playing] has helped me to face my fears because I have stage fright, and it helps me make new friends,” she says.

Nicole entered the competition to share her passion for visual and auditory art with others and was pleasantly sur prised with the results. “It is a really big honor,” she says. “It has really motivated me to keep going.”

Making Waves

Matthew Korf, 2022 Minnesota Eagle Scout of the Year, sets his eyes on the U.S. Naval Academy.

By Zoe Deal

WOODBURY NATIVE MATTHEW

KORF is off to do great things. The Saint Thomas Academy graduate and U.S. Naval Academy freshman was recently named the 2022 Minnesota Eagle Scout of the Year for his spirit of service and dedication to community.

“Volunteering has always been a big part of my life, and it’s become who I am today,” Korf says. “When you do something good that brings a smile to someone’s face or you make their day bet ter, that feels good … just knowing you’ve given your all.”

It was Korf's service project at Saint Ambrose Catholic Community that led to him earning the rank of Eagle Scout in June 2021.

“I chose to do my project at Saint Ambrose because I had gone there since I was 3 months old, and I just wanted to be able to give back something to the community,” Korf says.

The administrators’ desire for a com munity garden stood out to Korf right away. He met with a landscape designer at Warner’s Outdoor Solutions, collected materials from Gertens and Home Depot, and organized volunteers. The final prod uct—a raised vegetable garden, measur ing about 384 square feet—required a “lot of dirt,” Korf says. Dirt that will nourish a new science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) program and offer horticulture therapy to students with ADHD.

Mark Korf says what his son has achieved at a young age is “not a sur prise,” reflecting on a family Boundary Waters trip when a 9-year-old Matthew decided to carry the food pack over an 80-rod portage.

“The pack was almost as tall as

Matthew, but he was insistent … he fin ished that portage with a smile on his face,” Mark says “When I look back, that was just an indicator of the will and deter mination that he has to accomplish what ever he sets his mind to. We’re truly proud of the young man he has become.”

During his time at Saint Thomas Academy, an all-male Catholic military academy in Mendota Heights, Korf says he most enjoyed the feeling of “brother hood” with fellow students and his time participating in baseball, cross-country and as captain of the swim team. “His servant leadership style and his impec cable integrity are what we should all strive to achieve upon graduating from high school,” says Neil Hetherington, Saint Thomas Academy commandant of cadets and retired U.S. Army colonel. “Matthew's accomplishments while at Saint Thomas Academy are too numer ous to mention here, but I can tell you that he is the type of young man we want all of our future generations to emulate.”

After receiving multiple college offers—a full-ride Naval ROTC scholar ship to the University of Notre Dame, acceptance to Vanderbilt University and an appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy—Korf chose the latter. He’s currently interested in studying math ematics, economics and engineering, and upon graduation will continue his passion for service as a commissioned officer in the U.S. Navy.

Korf says, “[Joining the military] isn’t necessarily going to be the easiest route, but I think that in the end it will be what’s best for me. It will help me get where I want to be and just be a better person.”

Mark says the U.S. Naval Academy will strengthen his son’s leadership skills, and he’s looking forward to seeing what’s in store for his future.

“Matthew is extremely dedicated. He has a strong sense of service and a great deal of empathy for those around him. He gives 110 percent to whatever he does, and, as a result, we’re extremely proud of what he’s done,” Mark says. “We truly believe his uniqueness is his gift to the world, and we’re excited to see what he does in the years to come.”

C limbing High for Loved Ones

Woodbury local participates in the Fight for Air Climb every year to support lung health.

Michelle Bosquez (right) with her team, MGC on the Move, at the 2022 Fight for Air Climb, held this past May.

MICHELLE BOSQUEZ

impacted by lung cancer as it rooted itself in the deepest parts of her life. “It’s like I’m surrounded by it. I was meant to take action—how could I not?” Bosquez says. With the losses of her uncle and colleague from lung cancer, she felt the overwhelming urge to take steps for change—and taking steps is literally what Bosquez did.

Bosquez, a Woodbury local and lung health advocate, is a five-year partici pant in the Fight for Air Climb, hosted by the American Lung Association (ALA). (The most recent event was held this past May.) She participates in the climb with her MGC on the Move team, which has climbed the stairs every year since 2018. Her climbing team, a com pany group from MGC Diagnostics, was created when it received a flyer for the Fight for Air Climb in the mail.

“I just thought of how great the part nership with the ALA would be with our company. Given that both of our compa nies are solely focused on lung health, we got great support from our company to make donations and take this on,” Bosquez says.

MGC Diagnostics develops and manu factures non-invasic diagnostic systems that can help to detect and manage heart and lung disease. “This is one reason why MGC Diagnostics and the [ALA] are such a good match. Over 600,000 Minnesotans are living with lung disease, so it’s a great feeling to contribute by climbing or fund raising and giving back to Minnesotans,” Bosquez says.

Bosquez has been with MGC diagnos tics for 11 years, but she has always been involved in the health field. “I’ve always been into health, wellness and fitness, and I actually worked for the CEO at Health Fitness Corporation before start ing at MGC Diagnostics,” she says.

With that, she has always been hyperaware of lung health. Bosquez’s grandma had severe asthma, and her mother’s

friend passed away from lung cancer, even though she was a non-smoker. Most recently, her brother-in-law was diagnosed with stage four lung can cer—he was also a non-smoker. Given the company she works for, tied in with her personal experiences, the Fight for Air Climb was a calling. “I was meant to climb for this cause, it was a match,” Bosquez says.

The Fight for Air Climb is put on by the ALA throughout the country. The goal is to challenge participants to pro mote healthy lungs and bring awareness to lung disease while also funding lung research. The event is open to everyone— all that is asked is to raise at least $100 in donations for lung research.

“When I’m at the event, I always take huge inspiration from the firefighters who also attend every year. They have all their

gear on down to their oxygen tanks. It’s amazing and inspiring to see, especially to everyone participating in the climb,” Bosquez says. She is also inspired by the camaraderie among participants.

In past years, the event was held at U.S. Bank Stadium in a stairwell. Now, it is held in the bleachers at Allianz field, which gives climbers more space and fresh air. Bosquez notes how past years have been challenging with doing the climb indoors. Since COVID-19, it has moved outside, giving participants the freedom to move in a larger, breezy space.

“Everyone is so pumped up and jazzed by the climb,” Bosquez says. “It seems like everyone is climbing with inten tion, and they are inspired by someone or something. There are people that are climbing that have lost a parent, friend or loved one to lung cancer or some type

of lung disease. Then you have all the fire departments from all around the state of Minnesota motivating us all.”

Bosquez notes how positive this event is—there are people cheering from the sidelines, as well as people there to help warm up and encourage climbers. Participants can choose any route in the stadium and climb any where from 20 minutes to an hour.

“This year, our team is in first place for Minnesota Climb Fundraising Teams at $6,330—that is in addition to the $5,000 that MGC gave as a sponsorship of the climb,” Bosquez says. “In the past, we typi cally raised less than $5,000 each year, but every year we aim to beat the follow ing year, so next year we will try to fun draise closer to $7,000 in addition to our company sponsorship of the climb.”

Her personal goal beyond fundraising

Each year, local firefighters complete the Fight for Air Climb in head-to-toe gear, complete with their oxygen tanks.

THE CAUSE AND ACTION

Lung cancer affects the Minnesota community in many ways. Consider the following statistics:

619,000: Estimated number of people in Minnesota living with chronic lung disease

3,980: Estimated number of people in Minnesota that will be diagnosed with lung cancer in 2022

1,950: Estimated number of people in Minnesota that will pass away from lung cancer in 2022

$140,000+: How much the Fight for Air Climb has raised for the ALA in 2022 4,380: Steps taken at the Fight for Air Climb in 2022

is to always climb the stairs longer and faster than the year prior. Bosquez notes that stair climbing is a lot more challeng ing and exhausting than people may think, but she encourages anyone thinking about climbing in the event to not hesitate to jump on the opportunity.

Lung cancer can affect anyone without warning. For Bosquez, she acknowledges the dent it can leave on anyone affected. Recognizing that the ALA has a lot of sup port groups and resources to help families and friends is the biggest piece of advice Bosquez can offer. She remarks that a lot of people just aren’t aware of these resources, but they can be life-changing, just like the climb.

BRUSH OF DIVA

ADD ENERGY AND INTRIGUE TO YOUR HOME WITH JEWEL TONES.

From rich emerald green to vibrant ruby red, jewel-toned colors are seemingly everywhere. When done correctly, add ing jewel tones to your home can create an elegant, classy space that brings your personality to light. Wanting to learn more about how to incorporate these beautiful tones, we dropped in on Wendy Doornink of Hirshfield’s to find out how the color specialist and Realtor helps homeowners add trending pops of color while keeping it chic.

“I see this movement of jewel tones adding richness and luxe in places where people just want to embrace a feeling of warmth and intrigue, a little mystery and differentness,” Doornink says.

GETTING IT RIGHT

Jewel tones are an edgy trend, especially

for people tired of conforming to neutrals and ready for vibrancy and energy in fresh and exciting colors. Breaking the rules is good, and there’s a right way to do it.

DOORNINK’S TIPS

Pick one color as your main jewel tone and accent with the rest. “You’re usually drawn to one or two. Use one for your main accent walls, and bring the rest in soft décor like furnishings, chair covers, rugs, pillows, drapery and couches,” she says.

Avoid using strong colors through out. It’s overwhelming and makes your house feel small even with good light ing. “There’s usually one star of the show—one color that’s dominant, and the rest of the colors are supporting players,” Doornink says. “You have to let the diva be the diva.”

Don’t be tempted to use a high-sheen paint, like satin or semi-gloss. Once you get it on the wall, color shines like crazy and magnifies imperfections on the wall. “I have a saying, ‘When in doubt gray it out,’” Doornink says. “Make it more gray than you think, and it’ll still come through with a lot of color.” She recommends choosing a matte or egg shell fishing instead.

Test two coats of paint on walls, card board or tagboard, and look at the color when you’re going to spend the most time in that room. “Every room feels different—a north facing room feels so different from a sunny west in the after noon,” she says.

SOPHISTICATED SHADES

Emerald green is having a huge moment and is appearing on cabinetry, wood wainscotting, accent walls in bedrooms and entire powder bathrooms. It cor responds to the trend of incorporating natural colors into our environment, and green is healing and calming. It’s the color of growth and renewal, and we’re welcoming its ease into our décor. Blue, such as cerulean or sapphire, is timeless, and the blue jewel tones are crisper and clearer and can add energy in addition to anchoring the room. Blue cabinets are almost a staple and bolder colors help to stand out from the norm. A favorite is Benjamin Moore (BM) paint color “Dragonfly,” an interesting dark teal

WHERE TO ADD A PUNCH OF COLOR

Jewel tones can bring drama, personality and moody vibes into your home. Homeowners concerned about resale value should paint neutral colors in flow areas like hallways and stairways and in hard-to-reach areas. In bathrooms, match whatever is going on with the tile, making it look like it all belongs.

Have fun in other areas. “Go crazy with color in bedrooms, offices, laundry rooms and front doors,” Doornink says. “Those are per sonality things and people are going to repaint your bedrooms and offices anyway.”

But Doornink also asks, “How long do you plan to stay in the house?’

Because if it’s the last one before ... the retire ment home—do what makes you happy.”

Look to add colors here:

• Walls

• Ceilings

• Wainscotting

• Front and interior doors

• Trim (base and casing)

• Furniture

• Dining chairs

• Backs of bookshelves

• Sides of drawer boxes

• Picture frames

• Artwork—pick a color from the print as a background color

• Zoom backdrop walls

• Kitchen islands

• Laundry rooms

• Powder baths— dark and dramatic, wallpaper or paint the wall with the sink and toilet

that adds life and punch without being too much. Yellow, like citrine or garnet, is a stronger color personality and should be added with care so as not to overwhelm or to create agitation with bright hues. A great place to start with this tone is in décor like pillows, artwork, bedding and curtains—things that can be added in smaller quantities. Wallpaper with a hint of these colors is another option. Yellow brings a joie de vivre.

Amethyst tones are grayed-down versions of red that lean a bit purple but not too much. We’re look ing for natural colors—ones found in nature that feel real to us, and the tones that feel like they could have been created naturally, like dying cloth with beets. These colors feel comforting, homey, easy and true. Amethyst falls perfectly into that category.

AN IDEAL MATCH

Maximalism styles can incorporate jewel tones and bring many colors together. Wallpaper is embrac ing this idea, and the options are almost endless as far as color and pattern. Large patterns and big colors bring a homeowner’s personality to the walls. Powder bathrooms are the perfect space to add this drama. And don’t worry about the colors being too dark in rooms without windows. Adequate lighting will keep the space from feeling too dark.

Bohemian styles add woven and natural woods to the palette of brighter colors—these accents help soften the overall effect of the dramatic colors and again leaning toward a natural trend, feel unfussy, easy and true to one’s personality.

White is a perfect accent to jewel tones. It allows the colors to be dominant without competing with them. Crisp white like BM “Chantilly Lace” or a warmer neutral like the popular BM “White Dove” or BM “Swiss Coffee” can be the accenting walls or backdrop to artwork full of color. Black can accent as well but in limited amounts.

Cabinet hardware colors that work with jewel tones vary. There’s currently a curated look when it comes to metals in our homes. For example, the faucet can be a black finish while drawer pulls are an aged brass—with brushed gold currently making appearances on kitchen and bath cabinets. Brushed gold, brass and black are great with bolder jewel tones, while brushed nickel works best with more muted or neutral tones.

WALLPAPER REFRESH

Remember the days of peeling and scrap ing off wallpaper? Ditch that memory because Doornink says the process has improved. Priming and sealing a wall, creating a water proof barrier, makes it easier to remove wallpaper. Don’t forget about peel-and-stick wallpaper as an option.

TEAL OF FORTUNE

How one pop of color ultimately transformed an entire space.

Written by Ava Diaz

This is not the first interior design rodeo for homeowners Eric and Rachel Swenson. As one of SpaceTurtle Construction’s first clients in 2019, the Woodbury couple originally revamped their basement into a space that would become an oasis in the wake of COVID-19 in March of 2020. As a family of five, they wanted a basement that could be utilized for relaxing and entertaining. Equipped with a full bar, the kitchenette houses a kegerator for fresh brews, a microwave and a sink— what Rachel Swenson calls their “mini kitchen.” After making what once was a stark basement feel like home, they knew they wanted to emulate the same vibe in the rest of their house. Fast forward two years, and the homeown ers have now updated the entire main level of their home with the help of the SpaceTurtle Construction team.

OUT WITH THE OAK AND IN WITH THE NEW

The homeowners simply wanted a con temporary refresh for the entire first floor of their home and to depart from the golden oak—a ’90s trend—that was everywhere. “It was nice, warm and inviting, but we wanted to bring it into the modern era,” Swenson says.

The former kitchen space was home to rich burgundy walls and oak cabinetry and was met with a collection of varying floors pieced together from the entire level— linoleum, tile, hardwood floors and carpet.

The laundry room had orange-toned ter racotta walls and a nonfunctioning basin sink, and the main entryway staircase showcased outdated oak banisters.

Despite such an open layout, founder and co-owner of SpaceTurtle Construction Cody Kupitz says the original main level still felt sectioned off due to the variety of materials and color schemes present. Opting for a more cohesive approach (to also match the basement), the team worked to simplify most of the space with cosmetic changes, like fresh paint, new fixtures and modern molding. “It was dark and dated, and now it’s bright and beautiful,” he says.

Keeping the original blueprint of the home, Swenson says they also carried this simple approach to the general structure of the kitchen (apart from the removal of the built-in desk and the addition of a few cabinets). “We maintained the same layout because we liked how it functioned, and everyone was used to it,” she says. “We just added to and upgraded the overall look.”

THE KITCHEN

One of the defining features of this space is the pop of color provided by the teal walls. Wanting to add a spruce of person ality to the space in a way that was easily changeable, the homeowners settled on a bright, happy paint color.

However, the inspiration for this color was an accident. Swenson says she was browsing through her email when she received a subscribed mes

COLOR POP

In an era of stark white design, color can truly seem daunting. However, it is a great way to bring in a sense of uniqueness to any space. “If you look at a lot of homes now, they are tremendously whitewashed,” Kupitz says. “There are a lot of white walls, white cabinets and it looks good in pictures, but, if you’re living there, you have to make it a place that is comfortable and part of that is through color.”

Using color to highlight personality, the team at SpaceTurtle says it enjoys experimenting with new ways to dif ferentiate its clients from the rest of the homes on the block. “Color can brighten your day, brighten your space and brighten your life,” Kupitz says.

A few favorite paint samples include “Daring,” “Rayo De Sol,” “Carnelian” and “Poseidon.” The pop of teal in the Swenson’s home is “Dragonfly.”

sage from HGTV featuring the iconic teal color in a collection of trending paint colors. Inspired by the email, she says the color stuck with her, and she eventually decided to incorporate it into the new space.

Despite her love for the color, Swenson says she wanted to include it in a way that wasn’t permanent. Featuring it only above the sink and around the entryway to the dining room makes for an easy update in the future. (The subsequent walls in the breakfast nook feature a neutral slate gray to allow for the blue to pop.)

Though it seems like a simple update, the paint created an exciting twist for the SpaceTurtle team. “People are starting to try new things, and we are seeing people

FAVORITE FEATURES

Brenden’s pick: The former windowsill above the kitchen sink was home to—you guessed it!—a slab of golden oak. As a unique lookout, the homeowners liked to use this illuminated alcove as a space to house some of their favorite plants. However, the water from the pots would seep into the oak and caused the wood to rot. In the renovation, Brenden opted to continue the use of the granite countertop, folding it over the ledge to provide a sleek way for the water to drain off into the sink.

Kupitz’s pick: Aside from the family’s two cute dogs, Kupitz says his favorite feature was the renovation of the stairwell. As the first thing you see when you walk into the house, he says it was almost necessary to give it a revamp. Originally made entirely of wood, it was redone to incorporate the same chocolate tone as the kitchen island for the banisters and thinner medal spokes to create a lighter feel.

To complement the walls and continue to brighten the space, they settled on crisp white cabinets with black hardware. The espresso toned cabinets used in the kitchen are the same style featured in the basement kitchenette, the laundry room and the guest bathrooms, maintaining cohesion from one level to the next. To contrast, the island, made of birch with a java-colored stain, features a deep chocolate brown to pull in tones from the floors and adds a sense of warmth to the space.

The appliances are another showstopping feature and Swenson’s favorite part of the remodel. The carefullychosen stainless steel appliances speak

to the homeowners’ passion for cooking and entertaining. The kitchen features two ovens, a dishwasher, a double door fridge and a steamer. Creating one-ofa-kind spaces for their clients, the team at SpaceTurtle values the importance of making a space into a home. “We promote designing the house the way you want to live [and to] get joy out of it,” says Marie Brenden, co-owner and designer. For the homeowners, the team did just that. “[The kitchen is] clean, timeless and functional for our family. It is just a place you want to be,” Swenson says.

With two floors completed, the Swensons are just getting started. They plan to eventually revamp the second level of their home.

Craving and Carving

From the garden to the kitchen and out to the front porch, pumpkins usher in all the cozy fall feelings.

WRITTEN BY STACI PERRY MERGENTHAL

THERE’S NOTHING MORE

ICONIC to the month of October than pumpkins. Beyond front porches adorned with flickering carved jack-o’-lanterns and tapering towers of pastel Cinderella pumpkins, there’s the annual trip to the pumpkin patch, the warming scent of pumpkin bread in the oven and simmer ing pumpkin sage soup on the stove top, fall festival seed-spitting contests and the beloved—and controversial!— pumpkin spice latte.

To learn the pumpkin basics, we turned to third-generation farmer Brian Schiltgen of Schiltgen Farms in Afton. He and his wife, Amy, are raising their children and fourth generation farmers, Maverick, Brock and Mabel, on the fam ily farm started in 1950 by Schiltgen’s grandparents, Richard and the late Kathryn Schiltgen.

While Schiltgen’s uncle, Ron, runs the grain, corn and soybean opera tions, Schiltgen manages the vegetable side, growing more than 60 varieties of pumpkins, 10 varieties of squash, gourds, mums, straw and flint corn. Continuing and expanding Kathryn’s tradition of selling roadside pump kins and fall decorations, the farm is open mid-July through October, with Grandma Jo’s (Amy’s grandmother) famous dill pickles selling out quickly.

GROWING

More varied than an artist’s palette, pumpkins come in a wide range of col ors, sizes, textures and stem formations.

Plant according to your edible and orna mental needs.

• Plan your planting schedule based on the variety’s maturation days, anywhere from 75 to 125 days.

• Plant in full sunshine.

• Follow seed instructions for spacing between plants and rows, leaving room to stretch and grow. Vining habits span from full and short vine to more com pact semi bush and full bush.

• Water from the ground, not overhead, to prevent powdery mildew, fungus and black leaf rot. Pumpkins are heat-tolerant without daily watering.

• The first flowers to grow are male. “Some people get discouraged because they see a bunch of flowers but don’t see pumpkins starting to form,” Schiltgen says. “Eventually, the pump kin will produce female flowers with tiny bulbs that will produce pumpkins if pollinated successfully.”

• Harvest when the stem is no longer green and has a cork-like look and dark color. The shell should be rock hard.

Roasted Pumpkin Seeds

Directions: Extract pumpkin seeds. Rinse with water using a colander. Dry on paper towels. Place seeds on a baking sheet. Generously toss with olive or avocado oil. Sprinkle a light dusting of Lawry’s seasoned salt on top. Toss to coat. (For variations, use garlic or onion salt, cinnamon and sugar, or black, cayenne or lemon pepper.) Bake at 350 degrees F for 12–15 minutes or until brown and crunchy, stirring every couple of minutes to ensure they are evenly roasted on both sides. Cool. Store in an airtight container.

CARE AND STORAGE

Not only do kids want to display their carved masterpieces through Halloween, we want our outdoor decorative pump kins to greet passersby into November. We asked Schiltgen how to prolong the life of pumpkins—for aesthetic and culi nary purposes.

Undamaged pumpkins can last up to three months if stored properly.

“People will buy multiple bushels of squash [and pumpkins] for culinary purposes,” Schiltgen says. He’s even known people to use white pumpkins for Christmas decorating.

• Avoid freezing temperatures.

• Wipe them with water before storing.

• Store single layers in a dry, aerated area.

• For decorative and carving pumpkins, wash (including stems) with 10 parts

water to one part bleach to kill off any fungus. Dry.

• Place on cardboard or wood board. “Concrete is usually colder than the ambient air temperature, and the pumpkin will get cold from the bottom and will typically rot from the bottom,” Schiltgen says.

• Keep stems intact to protect from rotting.

IN THE KITCHEN

Pumpkins aren’t just for looks. They are a healthy, versatile and flavorful ingredient, making them popular in sweet and savory dishes from home bakers to five-star chefs.

For cooking (soups, pasta, roasted side dishes, gnocchi and gratin) and baking (cake, cookies, bread and pie), Schiltgen suggests a few pumpkin varieties for the best texture and flavor: cannonball, picka-pie, sugar pie and Long Island cheese,

and Schiltgen’s favorite …

“Fairytale—an heirloom variety. It’s a squatty Cinderella shape with pronounced ribbing that matures into a brown buckskin color,” he says. “It’s hard to find, so culinary chefs come from around the Twin Cities for that pumpkin because they know I grow them.”

As pumpkins are packed with vitamin A, potassium, iron, beta carotene, alpha carotene and lutein, maybe a healthy dose of Thanksgiving pie is actually good for us.

We were surprised to learn that many culinary professionals prefer squash ver sus pumpkin because it is typically sweeter with a buttery smooth texture. Chefs come to Schiltgen for multiple varieties of but ternut squash, including cream of the crop, New England cheddar, sunshine (a kabo cha squash), buttercup and acorn.

Schiltgen says white pumpkins and standard jack-o’-lanterns are not condu cive to baking.

PRESERVING

Freezing pumpkin flesh or puree is the safest and easiest method for preserv ing pumpkin. The U.S. Department of Agriculture does not recommend canning mashed or pureed pumpkin.

PUMPKIN SEEDS

Also known as pepitas, raw pumpkin seeds are low in carbohydrates, packed with magnesium, manganese, iron, zinc and copper, and are high in antioxidants and anti-inflammation alpha-linolenic acid. Enjoy the superfood as a crispy snack, toss on soups, salads and pancakes,

add to granola and peanut butter cookie recipes, or combine with sugar and sprin kle on muffins before baking.

TREATS FOR FIDO AND FRIDA

Pass the pumpkin to your beloved canines. The fiber-rich nutrients are beneficial for dogs, aiding in digestion, supporting eye health and contributing to a shinier coat. (Do not use canned pumpkin pie mix as it may contain xylitol, which is toxic to dogs.)
