In the Box; Week 19


Note from the farm:

We have a nice big share this week! There’s a terrific crop of carrots coming in- quite possibly the best crop we’ve had in years. And green beans too! If you had any idea what an effort it is to pick green beans, you’d savor every little bite. Many CSA farms don’t even grow beans because it is so time consuming to pick them, so count yourselves lucky! Be sure not to overcook them. Just lightly steam until al dente.

Baby Arugula – 1/4 lb bag
Butternut Squash – 1 piece
Spaghetti Squash or Buttercup Squash – 1 piece
Green Beans – 1/2 lb bag
Carrots – 1 bunch
Toscano Kale – 1 bunch
Cabbage or Bok Choy -1 head/bunch
Baby Salad Turnips – 1 bunch
Cilantro – 1 bunch

Gala Apples, Empire Apples & Bosc Pears – 1 mixed bag

Important Note about Bosc pears!!!! Bosc pears are ripe when they turn an even brown color. They are still firm when ripe! Refrigerate immediately when ripe. If left to soften, they will be rotten when you cut them open, so be careful!
