March 30 - Spring Season Week 2

Greens!

This week's box is full of tasty greens.  It includes the following:

1. A bunch of either kale or collards - green band
2. A bunch of swiss chard - blue band
3. A bag of asian greens - smallish choi and some tat soi or red choi
4. A bunch of tatsoi.  This is now bolting (starting to flower) but you can still eat the entire plant.
5. A bag of lettuce
6. A bag of mache.  This is small but it's so tasty that I'm still handing it out.  Think of it like sprouts and sprinkle on your salad.
7. A bag of spinach.  Kind of nutty.
8. A bunch of mustard - yellow band
9. Some carrots loose in the box.  They're small but still tasty.
10. A handful of chives
11. A few sprigs thyme
12. A spring of rosemary - I cut back the plants so the sprigs are larger than normal.  A little goes a long way and it saves well if you let it dry.
13. A few sprigs of parsley.  This is very sweet - you might want to eat it right away.

Extras:

• A handful of carrots - these froze.  I uncovered them and then it got too cold this week.  They were in the field.  You can cut off the tops and eat what's left, if you'd like.  
• A handful of tatsoi
• One bunch of chard.  Take it if you'd like.
