Deliciousness from a box, week 1!
May. 21st, 2013 08:22 pmWe signed up for a local farming collective's "big box of local veggies every week". This is week 1!

Those are, left to right: three Lebanese cucumbers and one standard cucumber, a whole head of spinach, a pile of really nice green onions, a bundle of garlic chives, three large carrots, a bundle of swiss chard, a baggie of "spring mix" salad greens, about 2kg of asparagus, a bundle of radishes, a baggie of last year's frozen raspberries and one of blueberries, and four tomatoes.
(The white paper bag in the back is the last of the delicious jalapeno cheddar bread from the local bakery. It wasn't in the box, just in the picture.)
So far we've used: One lebanese cucumber, one carrot, half the green onions, some of the radishes, and one tomato. I think I'm going to keep track of what we get and what we use, each week.
(I don't think I've ever EATEN chard. Suggestions?)
