Well, it's hard to believe, but winter CSA is officially over this week. It has been a fun way to get introduced to how CSA shares work before plunging into a summer CSA which is delivered every week. I am excited for what lies ahead, but for the moment, here is what we are getting in this last winter share:
This week's full selection is:
- 1 pint homemade jam, either blackberry or blueberry
- 1/2 lb leaf lettuce
- 1 whole chicken, approx 4 lbs
- 1 lb Ohio City Pasta
- 1/2 lb fresh cheddar curds (your choice of dill, chipotle, garlic, or regular)
- 1/2 gallon milk
- 1 dozen eggs
- 1 lb sausage (your choice chorizo, cajun, mild Italian, or merguez)
- Choice of 2 vegetables:
- kale
- spinach
- mixed greens
- rhubarb
- radishes
- rapini
- asparagus
As you can see, we are already heading into late spring/early summer produce, and I am going to have a hard time choosing. I really just want one of each! I suspect that I will go with the rhubarb because it is expensive in the store, but I will ask to see the asparagus and rapini before I choose. All three items are very tempting and I am actually hoping he has enough that we can purchase the others separately.
Since we were on vacation last week, I am desperately in need of groceries, so I am looking forward to getting this share tomorrow. My mind is already working on the things that I will be making!
