Summer CSA Harvest Availability

This chart helps explain what we grow, and when we usually harvest it. For example, you will always get some kind of Salad Mix and some Microgreens (they are our specialty!). But you might only receive Tatsoi a couple of times during your CSA because we harvest it in October. This gives you an idea of what delicious things you have to look forward to!

FEATURED VEGGIES

Salad Mix: a mix of several lettuce varieties picked for their delicious taste and color combinations.

Micro Mix: a mix of sunflower, buckwheat, radish, cabbage and kogani (pac choi).

Mushrooms: pickers' choice of our farm-grown shiitake, oyster or trumpet mushrooms. Store these beauties in your refrigerator in a paper bag or in an unsealed plastic bag for a least a week.

Spinach: A truly wonderful green vegetable, very nutritious and delicious. It adds wonderful color and texture to a salad when you chop it into strips and toss with the lettuces. The best storage for fresh spinach is to wash it, place it in a plastic Ziploc with a paper towel lain in between the side of the bag and the leaves. You can also wash, blanch and freeze to save for later. Enjoy this familiar staple this week—it might just help you avoid those yucky winter illnesses that have been hanging around.

Rutabaga: a wonderful winter root vegetable that is often used interchangeably with turnips. However, these hearty veggies are sweeter and are a great substitute to mashed potatoes. Chop and boil to do so, or you can roast or braise the rutabagas. They are even great julienned small and added to your favorite salad raw. Some flavors that go well with this veggie are honey, raisins, allspice, cumin, dill, garlic, mustard, butter, cream cheese, lemon juice & olive oil.
