FARM NEWS:
Today, we go cut our Christmas tree! We're hoping the weather cooperates! With Christmas only 3 weeks away it might seem crazy to some that we have so much produce available. We have some pretty amazing heads of lettuce ready this week. Along with our favorite buttercrunch, we have two new additions that I am sure you will love just as much. One is a green romaine-bibb type similar to buttercrunch but has a look more like romaine. The other is called Rouge D'Hiver. As you may imagine, it is a variety from France, a place that has been gardening through the winter for centuries. The salads are second to none this time of year for sure, but the cauliflower and broccoli are the bonus crops that continue to surprise me; still outdoors with no protection and pumping out loads of new growth each week. Enjoy them while we can, they will surely be done soon.
Don't forget to sign up for your 2012 CSA membership, and start taking advantage of all the winter greens right now. You can sign up quick and easy right here.
