Summer CSA Week 3

 

**THE CSA AND FARM STAND WILL BE CLOSED TUESDAY JULY 4TH**

Howdy folks!,
Happy week 3! Just a note, we will not have CSA pickup next Tuesday. Enjoy the 4th of July!

Small Share members: Last name starting with A - L pickup this week

In this weeks share we have:
Lettuce
Broccoli
Spicy greens
Cooking greens (your choice of one bunch of kale, chard, or collard greens)
Scallions
Radishes
Beets
Bok Choi
Garlic Scapes

This week I want to highlight radishes. Fresh radishes have a crisp, peppery bite that I quite enjoy. I put them on salads, dip them in hummus, eat them sliced on hearty bread with butter and arugula, or pile them onto fresh fish tacos. (Pick up your local catch from Jordan's Seafood -- he's at the farm on Tuesday afternoons.)

For those who don't love the spiciness of radishes, I suggest quick pickling them. The pickling process mellows the bite but maintains the fresh crispness of the radish. Pickled radishes are fantastic on sandwiches, salads, or just out of the jar.

Once again, remember, no CSA pick up on the 4th of July. So, this week pick up a delicious ready-to-bake strawberry rhubarb pie from Bushel and Crumb in the farm stand! It will make a fantastic addition to any 4th of July picnic.

Your farmer,

Zannah
