[llocal eating] Farm share, week 4

[magid]

As usual, the farm is offering bulk orders (to anyone, not just shareholders, though if push comes to shove and they're at the end of their supply, shareholders' orders have priority), though right now it's mostly about cucumbers, which, while pleasant, I have no interest in in bulk. New this year is they've set up a dedicated email for bulk orders, which should streamline things.

Today's farm share included:

• a head of lettuce (I chose red leaf over romaine)
  
• four medium to large zucchini (or summer squash, but I chose the former
  
• a bunch of very long scallions
  
• a bunch of beets
  
• two kohlrabi
  
• a pound of hakurei turnips (no greens)
  
• a half pound of carrots
  
• a pointy head of cabbage
  
• six fat pickling cucumbers
  
• a bunch of yellow-stemmed chard (oh, hey, it would've been cool to have the yellow-tailed flounder with yellow-stemmed chard! oh, well)

Of note: I managed to get through all my previous salad greens by Sunday, so I'm ready for more green salad in my life. I still have a bunch of other things, though all with longer shelf lives.

Current plans for veggies include: kohlrabi and turnip slaw with carrots and lemon; roasted zucchini; roasted beets, sauteed beet greens, chard, turnip greens (last week's, if they're still good), and dandelions with preserved lemon; green salad with cucumbers; broccoli and/or kale (both left from last week) sauteed with onions, carrots, ground turkey, and Szechuan spicy sauce.
