The summer CSA is finally here! During the summer, we will be receiving shares every week. Due to unseasonably cold, wet weather, farmers had a hard time getting crops in the field, so the programs had to be delayed a week, but I am excited to say that we will be picking up our share tonight!!!! Leland and I will have "duke it out" to split the share this time because a computer glitch prevented us from being able to order extras. Here is what we are expecting:
Small CSA:
1 whole pasture raised chicken, 4-5 lbs
2 lbs organic cornmeal
1 bunch cilantro
1 bunch radishes with tops
1 head assorted leaf lettuce (approx .5 lbs)
2 hydroponic cucumbers
1 quart farmstead yogurt
Large CSA: the small package plus the items below
1 lb grassfed ground beef
1 bunch bok choi (approx .5 lbs)
1/2 lb mixed organic salad greens, including chives, lettuce, mizuna, and kale
1 bunch swiss chard or 1/2 lb leaf spinach
Choice of 1 pickled product - hot hungarian slices (quarts), medium hungarian slices (quarts), or a pint of pepper butter (home-made mustard)
Just as a reminder, we are sharing a Full share which includes the small CSA plus what we choose to add. Since the website wasn't working, we will just get the Large CSA (which includes the small). I still have the last chicken we received, so I am thinking that Leland can have this one and I will take the ground beef....who knows. But I really want the bok choy!
