Recipe of the week:
Hello members!
It is time again to order your basket for Thanksgiving. It comes with vegetables, local cranberries, and even two homemade pies. The last CSA pick-up is next week (week of Nov 12th) so SIGN-UP for a WINTER SHARE today (begins Dec.5th & 6th)
Check out our items this week. We have the return of white sweet potatoes again, they are a bit smaller than the orange ones but taste just as good. I lightly scrub and put into a roaster pan whole. I like to roast them best with the skins on. I think they taste like sweet potato fries with a little olive oil and garlic salt, while they cook. They are so delicious.
Sweet Dumpling Squash this week, can be roasted whole (350° washed, dried and lightly oiled on a lined baking sheet - no piercing ) and when cooked (about an hour, softened slightly) and cooled then cut in half, remove the seeds and strings and serve with a pat of butter and if you have a sweet tooth, then add a drizzle of maple syrup.
Storage for Squashes
After harvest, most types of winter squash should be "cured" in a warm, dry spot for several days (outside if the weather is nice). A rinse or dunking in a mild bleach solution will kill any exterior pathogens that might shorten the life of your squash in storage. Dry it well, then, squash should be moved to a cool (around 55°), relatively dry place. Un-damaged squash stored this way can last for several months. By mid Jan we tend to cook all the Squash, then puree it, and freeze it for later use the rest of the winter.
2013 SHARES
Also a $50. deposit holds your spot for next year - 2013 Summer Season. Shares to begin June 10th 2013. We offer both 24 week and 16 week options. This also helps us to order the fuel for the tomato greenhouses. Do you remember eating those delicious juicy tomatoes the first week of June from our CSA this past year? (Yep, it was because we heated the greenhouses and planted the tomatoes on March 1st.) Don't forget to SIGN-Up!
Enjoy your vegetables!
