Fall CSA #9 November 1st
Windy one today! I do all weather without a question but wind is my least favorite!! Glad most of my harvesting was already done and it was a day of packing. My husband however, is harvesting Kale as we speak. We each have our crops and I like it that way- it splits up the CSA load and we each become an "expert" of that crop makes it easier! As for the CSA newsletter, I write and Rick sends..after I remind him and well, last week I forgot to remind him! The newsletter is always available though even if you haven't gotten the link we just do that as an extra reminder. I have noticed that sometimes the links on the website don't show up and I will have to work on that when things slow down.
This weeks basket :
1 bag of Chez Nous Mix
1 bag of Curly Endive - getting sweeter as the temperature drops...when searching for recipes the term escarole can also been googled for recipes as the two are similar
1 bag of Napa Cabbage
1 bag of Kale
Carrots
Leeks (Cream of Leek and Potato soup is delicious and thyme is a wonderful herb to flavor it!) Can be an onion substitute -is sweet and mellow
