This is the final fall CSA share. The days are short now, getting shorter. Time to change gears and rest up. We've still got some good food to eat. The farm stand will remain open at least one more week and maybe longer; I will email a closing date once it's been determined. Keep in mind that many items in this week's share--potatoes,squash, celeriac, apples-- can be stored for quite a while in a cool dark spot or in your fridge
We are thankful for your support this growing season and hope to grow for you again in 2012. Info about next year's CSA program will be emailed to you in next few weeks. Happy Thanksgiving!
Pick hours this week:
Tuesday noon to 7pm
Wednesday 7am to 7pm
Here's what's in the share:
1) five pounds yukon gold potatoes
2) three assorted winter squash (butternut, buttercup, acorn): see week four's list for info on different squash types. All grown in New York state. Not organic.
3) two celeriac (celery root)
4) one bag baby tuscan kale
5) one bunch leeks - for stuffing!
6) one bag baby carrots
7) one bag Thanksgiving salad mix: a special seasonal mix featuring , baby lettuces,mizuna microgreens, and pea shoots
8) apples and pears: four of your choice. We've still got a great mix of apple varieties (with tasting notes for you to take) and bosc or yali pears.
