Farm share, week i

[magid]

ruthling went on vacation this week, and I was lucky enough to get her farm share, from Parker Farm (out in Waltham). The distribution was done from the back of a truck parked on the street, with a scale hanging for people to measure out peas while he bagged everything else up. The loot:

• a pound of peas in the pod
  
• a bunch of purple kale
  
• a small red leaf lettuce
  
• a bunch of green chard
  
• a bunch of baby beets with greens
  
• a bunch of baby carrots with greens
  
• a bunch of greens that must be the bean tendrils he'd mentioned, but I've blanked on which kind of bean (also, I have no idea what to do with them, other than the generic saute with alliums) eta they're fava tendrils

Yummy.

Unexpected bonus: running into lots of people on the way. Tomorrow: my regular farm share.
