We've been enjoying our CSA winter share this past week. Winter shares at the Root Connection include both fruit and vegetables. Some storage crops such as onions, squash and beets come straight from the farm, but most of the produce is purchased like a co-op from organic farms farther south. It helps the local farm make some money in the winter months and it keeps us in plenty of fresh foodstuffs.
A weekly share is just over $40.00 and this week included apples, bananas, beets, bok choy, broccoli, carrots, cucumbers, green leaf lettuce, oranges, pears, potatoes red leaf lettuce, spinach, tomatoes and zucchini. It was actually packed in alphabetical order which was quite impressive. Okay that's a lie, but the food is good.
