Mr. D and I have joined a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program. We've chosen Tomato Mountain Farm and have had one delivery. And I am so excited about it! The picture above is courtesy Tomato Mountain Farm's Facebook page... and gives you a good idea of what was delivered. Although, it doesn't come close to the amount of spinach we got! Our delivery came very late at night so my plans on taking all these great pictures was crushed due to it being almost midnight. But this is one reason I really liked them... they deliver right to our door! A lot of CSA's have a weekly pick up site, which is also great but having them deliver really works nicely for us.
This batch included, Spinach, Bok Choi, Hakurei Turnips, Head Lettuce, Red Russian Kale. We were a little overwhelmed with a few of the items but have put all of them to good use. Success! Right now, because the weather is still cool, there are a lot of cold weather veggies and greens. Which is find by me... that's the point! Tonight we sauteed turnips, kale, onions and some spices to have as a side dish with pulled pork (which was not local by any means... baby steps!). It was delish! Turnips... delicious? Yep, they sure are!
As the bounty grows and changes I'll be sharing pics along with any great recipes we come across in quest to eat great food!
