What's In The Boston Box?

share distribution #23

Every other week/senior shares pick up on odd distribution weeks

this is the box that will be available
at our Boston Distributions on Thursday

Spinach: We planted a small greenhouse with spinach and it is beautiful. There isn’t a ton of it but it is so nice and tasty. Enjoy it in a salad or a frittata or whatever you like!

Curly Kale: Big beautiful bunches of frost sweetened kale. Salads, soups, lasagna, put it in everything.

Escarole: The lettuce is done for the season but escarole is hardy in the field and makes a great fall salad. Chop up the ribs and pair with dried fruit (I like cherries), nuts, blue cheese and a hearty balsamic vinaigrette. It is also common in Italian cooking if you are not feeling the salad.

Sweet potatoes: So sweet now, they continue to sweeten as we hold them. Store these on your counter or in a cupboard but not in your fridge.

Carrots: Loads of beautiful frost sweetened carrots. Crunch away or cook them up. Store wrapped in a bag in the fridge.

Gold/Red potatoes: The gold and red potatoes got a little mixed in the field but they can both be used similarly. Waxy and hold up well in soups and stews, but also delicious mashed.

Rutabaga: Great for mashing, roasting, soups, stews and I have enjoyed them as fries.

Yellow Onions: Delicious for cooking, these caramelize beautifully. These are cured and will hold nicely in your cupboard or on your counter.

Brussels sprouts: The sprouts are quite nice this fall. Roast them in the oven at 450 coated with oil. Delicious!

Garlic: The last bit of our garlic. These are smaller heads but still delicious!
