<\/a><\/div>\nLEEKS F\/P The leeks are large with long, tender shanks. <\/p>\n
LETTUCE F\/P The lettuces took a break from growing thanks to the soggy weather, but everyone will get one head this week.<\/p>\n
CARROTS F\/P More small snacking carrots<\/p>\n
SWEET POTATOES F Orange-fleshed Beauregards. We harvested less than 30% of last year’s record crop. We blame the cool temperatures and soggy summer. <\/p>\n
POTATOES P Small potatoes, good for cooking whole and popping them right in your mouth.<\/p>\n
TOMATOES OR SWEET PEPPERS F Some are ripe, some are green. See Tom’s post for cooking with green tomatoes.<\/p>\n
WATERMELON RADISH F A fall storage radish with brilliant pink flesh. Cut into watermelon-shaped slices and eat the pink part. If you like a kick, eat the rind.<\/p>\n
HERB CHOICE F\/P Cilantro, dill, sage or radishes<\/p>\n
GREENS CHOICE F\/P Kale, Swiss chard, bok choy or cabbage<\/p>\n
BROCCOLI, CAULIFLOWER OR NAPA CABBAGE F<\/p>\n
NEXT WEEK: Extended season starts with lettuce, greens, bulb fennel, herbs and garlic.<\/p>\n
FARM REPORT:<\/p>\n
I am watching the world series while writing this post, so please excuse any sloppiness. I remember watching the 1985 series and I am happy to see our hometown team back in the finals. With Royals fever in the air, your farmers have been thinking about how farming is like baseball. We both start our seasons in the Spring and spend the summer working in the field. <\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\nFrom Spring training to our last race around the bases before frost, we are always ready for whatever curveballs Mother Nature throws at us. We are successful when we work as a team and thrive on the support of our fans… ahem CSA members. Like the Royals, we too have a post-season. Ours begins next week. This is Week 24 of the CSA and for many of you, the last week. Thank you for your support and we hope to see you back in 2015. For those in the extended season, we have four more innings (okay…weeks) to go. Charge!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
