2021 CSA Week 2 Recipes

Week two is here, and these long spring days have provided us with another bounty of delicious produce. As the crops we planted this spring continue to size up, we’re including overwintered alliums and beets, which all have excellent flavor. We loved seeing all the meals that you guys made with the share last week. This week we have more delicious spring greens. Now that the weather is cooperating we have finally started planting our summer crops out in the fields. Thank you all for supporting us! Have a great week!
