CSA Share – 7/14
This week’s share includes:
Beets
Early Wonder is the variety. They are a classic red beet. Use the greens the way you would spinach or swiss chard.
Broccoli
There were enough sideshoots to provide 1/2 lb for each share. We tried to find all the caterpillars, but may have missed some, so give it a good check.
Carrots
Yea, they’ve finally sized up!
Green Onions
Unlike the scallions, these have started to bulb up a little.
Kale
Rainbow Lacinato is the variety. Kale is power packed with nutrition. It’s also very appealing to the same caterpillars that like broccoli. Just eat around the holes.
Lettuce
Two heads of a romaine called Paris Island. We’ve switched to summer lettuces now, which will hopefully hold up in the heat better than the early season varieties.
Peas
Either Sugar Snap or Snow, our choice. With the hot temps , pea production is starting to slow down, but we picked enough for about 1/2 lb per share.
Radishes
The classic red radish called Cherry Belle. In our sampling, we found them not too zingy, although the heat seemed to come on
