This week’s CSA box from Harmony Valley Farm included:
- Red Leaf Lettuce,
- Spinach,
- Strawberries,
- Scallions,
- Garlic Scapes,
- Sugar Snap Peas,
- Arugula,
- Napa or Sweetheart Cabbage, (not sure which)
- Amaranth,
- Summer Squash, and
- Chard
We definitely didn’t finish eating all of the greens from last week. Again I’ve never heard of some of these items – Chard? Amaranth?
We’ve been enjoying the strawberries that we got over the weekend. I even made my first ever jam (and it looks like it might turn out!!) with CSA strawberries and rhubarb. It is delicious. I’ll write more about it later. As our weeks ebb and flow with busyness so does the about of CSA food we are able to eat.
