Garden Of Eve Winter CSA 1/7/2012

It was like a bright morning in early Fall as walked to the Rutledge Ave. pickup site, turned into 89th St, and then a right into the community drive where Toby was setting things out for us all. We opened our two boxes and were struck by the amount of green for this time of year. Just what the doctor ordered! Also, farm fresh eggs, a good load of carrots, and home-made soup. This winter share is working out OK. And, we ran into a few members and chatted and we met someone new.
Our VEGETABLE share included; Arugula, large bunch; Broccoli 2 lb; Kale, 1 Bag; 2 Daikon Radish; Garlic, 3 Bulb; Braising greens 1 lb; Collards, 1 bag; Carrots, 1 1/2 Lb.; Beets, 1 large bunch; Salad Turnips; Mizuna, 1/2 lb; Eggs, 3 dozen; 2 Baking Potatoes.
Our Vegan SHOPPING BASKET SHARE included Broccoli 1 lb; Braising greens, 1/2 lb ; Kale, 1 Bag; Salad Turnips; 1 1/2 lb carrots; 2 lb Apples; Collards 1 bag; 2 Baking Potatoes; Garden of Eve grown and made frozen organic carrot OR butternut squash soup; NYS Grown and processed OG Kasha (buckwheat) OR OG buckwheat cereal.

We had the butternut squash soup for lunch--and tasty it was, though maybe a little chicken brothy--and for dinner we had salad (with apples) and arugula pesto, which we put over pasta. Our fridge is filled with leafy greens and other veggies and we're glad we signed up for the Garden of Eve Winter Share. --KB
