In the Box–June 30, 2016

Here’s what you’ll be getting:

Radicchio

Green Romaine Lettuce

Summer Squash

Please note that any boxes not picked up by 8pm will be donated to SCS and items are subject to change.

In general, greens should be stored in an airtight plastic bag or container. They “go bad” when they dehydrate, so never put them straight in your fridge. If you find that they have gone “limp”, a tell-tale sigh of dehydration, you can try soaking them in a bowl of cold water for a period of time. Often they will perk right back up again!
