Something Extra
This week’s share has lots of greens and crunchy things, so salads and stir-fries are in your future. We are excited to get you all some lemongrass, as it has been years since we have had a good crop. It will live happily in your fridge for a few weeks, so do not feel rushed to use it or make into a curry paste and use at your leisure. This would be the share with fresh ginger in it; but unfortunately, we lost 80% of our crop this year, as we trialed planting it into our soil (in a high tunnel) instead of keeping in large grow bags and it did not go well. We are still unsure as to exactly why it failed so badly, there are a number of factors; but we will try again next year, likely going back to grow bags only. So look around at your farmers market for other fresh ginger options, as the lemongrass and ginger go hand in hand. Check out the recipes below, make some Tom Kha soup, and enjoy this wonderful Fall weather we are getting. Enjoy the share…..Autumn & Brian
