    Organic CSA Box Week 2

    Hi Everyone, It's time to share about our bi-weekly, local, organic CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) share from Roots to River Farm!

    Did you read about our last (the first) pickup? If not, you can catch up with it, here: Organic CSA Box Week 1.

    Belonging to this CSA has been a great way to ensure that we get our leafy green vegetables in our diet. It's been inspiring in the kitchen to work with new and different vegetables.

    Everything has been tasty and flavorful 🙂

    What was in our share this week

    Every other week, I pick 5 items to be in my CSA box share, here's what I picked for this week, the 1st week in July:

    • Sugar Snap Peas - 1 pint - this kiddos love these!
    • Escarole - 1 head - I had this sauteed with Asian seasonings 
    • Arugula - bag - I used this in a salad, would also be great in a quiche
    • Kale (curly) - bunch - I did a massaged kale salad
    • Salad Mix - bag - I made a great salad with this

    What would you make with these items?
