Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) Member News

The season has begun!  Farm Members, please refer to your pickup schedules.  In this week's share:
  • Cilantro - The first harvest of fresh Cilantro!  Use it to flavor your Mexican or Asian dishes!  
  • Green Oak Leaf Lettuce - Delicious bright green leaves of spring Oak Leaf Lettuce; an heirloom variety which features leaves shaped like, you guessed it, oak leaves!
  • Green Simpson Lettuce - Simpson lettuce is light green and very delicate.  You'll never see it in a grocery store due to it's delicacy; it's a lettuce that is meant to be enjoyed fresh & local. Great for wilted lettuce salads with warm bacon dressing!
  • Arugula - x 2 - A double-sized bag of arugula!  The arugula harvest this year looks amazing! Large leaves of arugula with a beautiful bright green color. 
  • Radishes - A BIG harvest this week of  "Easter Egg" radishes in a multitude of colors: red, pink, purple, white. The leaves are left attached, and are also edible - try some on a salad, the greens taste similar to the radish root itself.
  • Red Oak Leaf Lettuce - Beautiful light red colored lettuce. Try mixing in several of the greens in this week's share for a beautiful salad of many colors & flavors!
  • Asian Greens Mix - A mix of Mizuna and Red Mustard greens. Packs a bit of a peppery flavor, and is nice mixed onto a salad or very lightly stir-fried. Delicious fresh raw or cooked.

Our recipe database contains cooking ideas for all the vegetables we grow - link here.
