Farm share: weeks 17-20
Oct. 23rd, 2014 08:44 amI got behind because pickup Wednesday late afternoon when a 3-day holiday starts Wednesday at dusk is... challenging. And once I'd missed one post, I needed (for some value thereof) to do the previous one first. At least this year I'd finally figured out I should take photos of the board so I wouldn't have to rely on memory!
Week 17's haul:
Week 18: I was going out of town, and the friend who'd promised to pick up and send me a photo completely forgot, so I have no clue. ::sadpanda::
Week 19's haul:
Yesterday, the final distribution of the main season (the winter share is in November/December, and the deep winter share is January through March, with two distributions each month). Week 20's haul:
Week 17's haul:
- two Honeynut squash (totally cute, looking like baby butternuts, but darker orange)
- one head of cauliflower or two pounds of broccoli (I chose the huge cauliflower)
- two pounds of tomatoes
- three leeks
- a bunch of kale (I believe I traded mine in for more leeks)
- three hot peppers
- a head of lettuce
- two-thirds of a pound of brassica mix (choose from bins with mizuna, beta mix, arugula, tat soi, spinach, or mustard greens; I was heavily into tatsoi with some arugula)
- a third of a pound of lettuce mix (I don't remember whether it was this or the lettuce I traded for more hot peppers)
Week 18: I was going out of town, and the friend who'd promised to pick up and send me a photo completely forgot, so I have no clue. ::sadpanda::
