[local eating] Farm share, week 20 (end of regular season)

[magid]

I've got the extended share, so I'll have two pickups in November and December, at the inconvenient time of 2:30-6:30 Friday afternoons (which of course means aiming to get there by 2:30 at the latest, given when Shabbat starts). It'll be strange to have no pickup next week!

This week's haul:

• a third of a pound of spinach
  
• a third of a pound of mesclun
  
• a bunch of collards
  
• a pumpkin
  
• two pounds of potatoes
  
• two medium purple kohlrabi
  
• a bunch of cilantro (given away; the woman I offered it to gave me her kohlrabi in return)
  
• half a pound of green tomatoes
  
• a pound and a half of Hakurei turnips
  
• a pound and three quarters of carrots
  
• a pound and three quarters of yellow onions

I'm rather surprised that there weren't sweet potatoes or leeks, but then I realized that they have to store things for the winter and deep winter shares; it'll be interesting to see what I get. And I'm glad there wasn't bok choy: I still have both heads from last week that I really need to do something with.

First thoughts: pumpkin pie; kohlrabi slaw (perhaps with apple if I make it to a farmer's market); green tomato pie (unless I pickle them, but for some reason, the idea of that is extremely unappealing, perhaps because I saw them when little and never got over it); green salad with turnips; carrot pickles; stew with collards, carrots, onions, and sausage; stir fried bok choy with spicy ground turkey.

Working on it: pummpkin halves baking now, with seeds to be roasted in a bit for snacking (currently contemplating seasoning them with salt, cumin, and cayenne).
