today's harvest

Today, you will find your shares pre-bagged for you in the cooler. Full shares are on shelves around the perimeter of the room and small shares are on the shelves clustered in the middle.

EACH SHARE IS LABELED WITH YOUR SHARE NAME. PLEASE DON'T TAKE A BAG THAT ISN'T YOURS. (Sorry for the capitalization, but we've had problems with this in the past.)

Please take your bag, and bring it back next week when you come to pick up again. Please remember to check off your name on the clipboard outside of the cooler.

*If you are sharing a full share, it is your responsibility to split the full share bag. You do not have a small share.*

FULL SHARES:

4 heads lettuce

bunch spring raab*

bunch salad turnip**

SMALL SHARES:

2 heads lettuce

bunch salad turnip** -or- 4 oz bag of spinach

* The stems, leaf and flower of raab are edible. They are great sauteed w/ garlic and olive oil.

** The salad turnips can be eaten raw, or sauteed w/ butter. The greens are also edible. (recipes on our website)

Both the raab and turnips also fell victim to our unexpected surge in flea beetle population. Neither are as pretty as we desire, but are still delicious. Damage on the turnips can be cut away.

Please remember to wash all your vegetables before eating! We do wash them, but there's bound to be some grit, weeds, or bugs that make their way into your bags.

#CUTTING GARDEN: Herbs only today. The cutting garden is in the middle of the field, below the big black mat.

You are welcome to visit our bed of perennial herbs and cut a few small sprigs for yourself (.25 cent value). We have chives (flowers are also edible), sage, thyme, tarragon, and oregano. Please bring your own snips. You can visit the cutting garden at any point during the week. I'll try and get a sign out there describing how you cut the herbs.
