What we're up to:

Already we have started planting some transplants for our 2021 summer season and will be planting out some transplants in our high tunnels soon for the spring! Planting in the winter always feels like a wonder-happy to be doing it but also kinda wondering why we do lol. Then they sprout and mature and there is nothing better than the pictures of beautiful greens growing with snow in the background :)


 

In Your Bag This Week

Onions: These have cured nicely and are easy to cut and add to any meal. Store in a dry place. Carrots: small pencils carrots have great sweet and earthy flavor! Store in a bag in your fridge. Spinach: This has frozen more than a few times now and is absolutely fantastic!! super sweet and crisp it is perfect for a salad or sautéed as a side. Store in your fridge for up to a month. Celery: Absolutly delicious, this celery is naturally balanced from low-light conditions in the winter months so you can eat it raw or cook with it but this celery has MUCH more flavor than anything you have gotten at the grocery store so a little goes a long way:) Store in a bag in your fridge. Radish: You either received mild red radishes or sharp and spicy black radishes. Both are excellent in salads or on sandwiches to add a crunch! Store in a bag in your fridge. Kale: pull the leaves from the stem to eat raw or sauté. Great in a salad, made into a pesto, sautéed with your eggs for breakfast or baked into lasagna! Store in a bag in your fridge. Nesturtiums: These are beautiful and flavorful! taste is similar to wasabi, spicy on the tongue but not lingering. Excellent added to salads or on a cheese platter. store in the fridge.
