Spring - Week 8 - May 9

The following items are planned to be harvested tomorrow:
  1. Radishes or turnips (or both if we have enough)
  2. Lettuce
  3. Spinach
  4. Chard
  5. Choi
  6. Leeks
  7. Green garlic (it might be difficult to tell between the leeks and garlic but you should be able to smell the difference. Also, the green garlic should be smaller than the leeks.)
  8. Either salad mix or bunch of other greens
  9. Some sage and maybe other herbs
  10. Some cilantro
  11. Maybe another cooking green - we're pulling a lot of plants out of the hoops right now (in order to plant tomatoes and peppers) so something might be available as an optional choice

Week 7

Week 7's box included the following:
  1. One kale plant - strip the leaves and sprouts off of this plant and cook as usual
  2. One bunch of yukina savoy or mizuna - either can be eaten fresh or cooked
  3. Beet greens or turnip greens or turnips or beets
  4.  Bunch of lettuce
  5. Bag of spinach
  6. Salsify - see my e-mail from last week re. how to use this root veggie
  7. Parsley or cilantro
  8. Sorrel - chop up and use fresh in a salad or cook lightly and use in place of lemon - very tasty
  9. One or two heads of garlic - this is nearing the end of its storage life so some cloves are sprouting but most are still good.
  10. Some thyme
