Winter CSA: Week 14

Hmm. We realize it is winter (and frankly quite a beautiful one in terms of snow) but it has been a bit below average in terms of clouds and temperatures (at least below average with respect to the winters since 2005 when I started with hoophouses). And actually the forecast for this coming week looks to be one of the worse this winter. Consequently we will postpone the Sat. Feb. 12 pickup a week, extending into May a week (feel free to contact me if that doesn't work for you). Anyway on with the week at hand:



Winter salad mix with the emphasis on winter.



Mustard greens



Baby red Russian kale and collards (one thing that can be said about the cold temperatures is that they have drawn out about as high of a sugar level in these greens you will ever taste).



Last of the onion



For the first time this winter, carrots!! Like the greens, super high sugar content right now.



Hakurei turnips, although somewhat soup or stew grade.



And the last of our dried hot peppers.
