MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS
Week 20/52 of 2021
Dear Farm Members,
This week’s box is the poster child of spring/summer CSA shares, with salad turnips, stir fry greens, kale, and kohlrabi in the mix! These veggies often come with a bit of a reputation - folks just aren’t entirely sure how to integrate them into their cooking, or are, perhaps, still learning to love. As a result, several of them have become choice treats that we grow in rather limited quantities over the course of each season. Kohlrabi and salad turnips in particular are easy to grow, quick to harvest, and delicious on the plate - perfect for planting back when the air still had some chill to it. Both are rather sweet and mild, with that slight hint of mustard that’s a hallmark of vegetables in this family, and are delicious raw, steamed, and/or roasted. Enjoy them while they’re here! We’ve included plenty of recipes below, and are, as always, here to offer inspiration if you need it. Happy eating!
