CSA

This week we delivered our first Community Supported Agriculture baskets to our 24 farm shareholders. Each shareholder pays in advance for a share of the farms harvest and receives a basket of assort food through our the growing season each week. So what was in the first basket?

Strawberries - very good (I think I've tasted from every plant we have some a bad one in the bunch)

Mint- Fresh and Tasty

Garlic Scape- when I first got here I had to ask "what the heck is a garlic scape". Well a garlic scape is the unopened flower stock or hard neck garlic  that grows with a twist or curl in it. The scape tastes like garlic, some times mildly or things sharply, and are some thing of a delicacy. They are only around for about 2 to 4 weeks so they need to be pick (and with 18000 or so plants we are a little behind on this) quickly.

Lettuce- When all fails there is always lettuce.

Radishes- Colorfully red and with a nice kick to them these are great eats.

Whats come next week....
