Beets
Cilantro
Arugula
Spinach
Onions
Garlic
Carrots
Potatoes
Winter Squash - Acorn and Black Futsu
Brussels sprouts
Notes on the box.
Store Onions, Garlic, Winter Squash, and Potatoes out of the fridge. Keep potatoes out of the light to avoid greening and sprouting.
Everything else can go in the fridge. Greens will keep longer in an open plastic bag in the crisper.

Feta goes well with the Spinach, Arugula, Beets, Red Peppers, and Winter Squash. Actually it goes pretty well with just about anything! Enjoy!
The Deneb is nice and creamy, fruity, and milky. It's also an excellent melter and pretty mild. Nice to top casseroles and on grilled cheeses.

We got that frost! That means the greens are sweeter and more yummy than ever. It also means the pepper plants are done for. We will keep sending the brassicas and greens your way. We are waiting on the Romaesco and hope it heads up in time for the last box. In the mean time, enjoy the other delicious veggies! Especially the healthy helping of Brussels sprouts!
