Message from the farmers
Greetings,
This week starts our Cabbage harvests with Arrowhead cabbage and Tendersweet Round Cabbage. We split these (2) varieties between the CSA groups, because this week we only had enough of each cabbage for one group or the other. Both varieties are equally good for Cole Slaw, stuffing, or casseroles. Hopefully in the next week or so we can do a reversal and give the other CSA group the other cabbage variety so you can do a taste comparison, (side by side but only if you still have it hiding in your refrigerator, or closet).
Tomorrow’s pack for the partial CSA box will have one head of Arrowhead Cabbage. You might think it came from Zeldar, (Saturday Night Live with Dan Akroyd’s skits of the “Coneheads’), but it actually came from our farm field. (No guarantee where the seed originally came from.) With its cone shape, you’ll have the advantage over the Full CSA members because you won’t get it confused with your bowling ball if you happen to be looking for it in the dark. Then again, if you’ve had a few, you’ll know because you’ll be able to cut this one in half a whole lot easier than your bowling ball.
As far as the Full CSA members are concerned with their Tendersweet variety of round cabbage, well…… they’re on their own for this week.
Be well,
Fred & Karen
