This is the last share for 2013. What a great week to end our CSA season with such a festive and food filled holiday as Thanksgiving. We hope you will enjoy lots of great produce along with other classics for your holiday festivities. Thanks so much for joining us during this past season. We hope each of you enjoyed the bounty as much as we did. Although we are finishing up our CSA season, we are not yet done with our crops. We have grown quite a bit of produce for the Winter season and depending a bit on the weather we plan to continue bringing food to you at markets or through email orders. We will be harvesting weekly through December and then bi-monthly in January and February. We hope to have escarole, frisee, radicchio, carrots, fennel (possibly), spinach, beets, swiss chard, kale, cabbage, broccoli, turnips, winter radishes, leeks, arugula, salad mixes, and lettuce along with a few herbs.  We hope you will keep a lookout for us and our produce.
This week’s share combines lots of greens with quite a few root vegetables which can be so perfect for cold days. The last of our potatoes are being dispersed amongst the share this week. This was a really fabulous crop for us this year. The German Butterball has been a great storage variety for us and it will continue to hold, so if you still have lots of potatoes, don’t feel rushed to use these. We have included some recipes below. Please enjoy the share… Brian and Autumn
