My first box of produce from the South Central Farmers CSA arrived today! Everything is organic, local, and in season. I received a box full of spinach, multiple kinds of kale and chard, lettuce, bok choy, cilantro, mustard greens and broccoli, turnips, radishes, daikon and beets, all with their delicious leaves still attached for only $20, a portion of which supports gardening projects at Saturn Elementary School. I’ve already nibbled some of the leaves. The mustard greens went straight to my sinuses, the kale is bright and bitter. Everything is dusted with sparkling bits of earth. Some of these I have never before cooked. I am feeing up to the challenge. I hope to share good recipes very soon. In the meantime, look for a CSA in your area or join this one!
