CSA Pickup #1
In a grand effort to eat more produce, we joined the CSA at Red Earth Farm. It was a stressful moment a few months ago when we ran from brunch in an effort to register and pay before they sold out of shares. Luckily, we made the cut and have just picked up our first box of the season. I don't know why, but we chose the Full Share ... a 23 week season of 10 items each pickup (a Partial is 6 items) PLUS an additional bi weekly fruit share. Now that i've seen the produce on the counter, i've realized we surely are dunderheads.Box #1 contained:
1 basil plant
1 head bok choy
1 head red leaf lettuce
1 bag mixed baby greens
1 bag spinach
1 bunch red winter kale
1 bunch scallions
1 head green leaf lettuce
1 bunch beets
1 head something i don't know the name for - white stalks and leafy green tops
That means we'll have to consume at least 2 items each day, not even including the produce we already have in the fridge! That's a lot of greens. Better get some of those produce bags. Wish us luck.
