CSA Newsletter Week 4/52

MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS
Week 4/52 of 2022


Dear Farm Members,

January aside, this sunny window has had the farm bustling and full of energy. Each week we cross our fingers and hope for rain, simultaneously grasping at this glorious chance to prepare for the season ahead. Seeds to start, projects to finish, fields to mow, and hopefully enough time to do it all! It’s winter’s game - run while the sun’s still out. 

Your boxes this week come to you loaded with the usual winter greens and root vegetables, along with a couple of extra-special treats! Romanesco (the lime green, fractallated type thing you’ll see in your box) is a winter favorite, with a rich, nutty flavor that lands somewhere on the spectrum between broccoli and cauliflower. It tastes incredible with parmesan and butter, tossed with crispy breadcrumbs or toasted nuts, roasted with olive oil and a squeeze of lemon - if you know, you know. 

We’re wishing you all a fantastic week of sun and full bellies! Whenever rain decides to come, we’ll most definitely be ready for it.
