A review of the 2015 CSA season...
Early Season Boxes (June/July):
In the first couple of boxes we sent: lots of lettuce and spinach, rhubarb, several types of herbs, garlic scapes and broccoli. |
In box three, peppers, cauliflower, basil and peas showed up. |
By box four we were sending summer squash, cucumbers and cabbage. |
In the fifth week potatoes, beets, garlic, onions and parsley were harvested. |
We closed the early season with the addition of cherry tomatoes, tommatillos, hot peppers and eggplant. |
Mid Season Boxes (July/August):
Generally August brings high summer and great variety! |
A large amount of sweet corn was sent in week eight. |
String beans started to dwindle by week nine but the slicing tomatoes started to ramp up. |
The tenth box brought everything members needed to make salsa. Plus flowers! |
Week 11 brought everything members needed to make tomato sauce. Plus a giant kohlrabi and multi-colored carrots. |
Watermelon and brussel sprouts happened for box 12. |
Late season boxes (September/October):
Late season started with eggplant, musk melon, pumpkin and winter squash. |
Hold on! We're almost done! We forgot to take a picture on week 14. |
Week 15 brought a winter squash, summer squash and a whole mess of potatoes. |
The 16th box had flowers, green and red tomatoes, parley, eggplant and carrots. |
In the second-to-last-box we sent carving pumpkins and brussel sprouts . |
We ended the season with kale, swiss chard, several herbs, garlic, okra, tomatoes and honey. |
