Thanks for joining our CSA and choosing to eat seasonal, organic and local produce. In this modern world, trying to eat locally may not be the most convenient way to shop or eat, but you will get to enjoy the freshest, tastiest, and most nutritious vegetables; not to mention, the positive effects it has on the environment and local economy. There is definitely a learning curve when it comes to eating within the boundaries of the season, but I think that just as we’ve developed an appreciation for the sights, smells and sounds of each season, we can learn to anticipate and appreciate the tastes of each season as we make our way around the sun. The refreshing greens and spicy radishes of spring to wake us up, the sweet and juicy tomatoes, corn & melons that give us the excitement and smiles of summer, and the savory squash and onions that fill our house with the aromas that help remind us to slow down. This blog is here to guide you through this CSA season of produce and show you ways to enjoy it during the winter, when local food is less available. I’ll be posting articles on what to do with all those greens, how to preserve, etc. If anyone would like to post an article about something that works for them, please contact me at harlequincsa@gmail.com. I’d love to share it here.
Making the Most of Your CSA
