Delivery was smoother and faster the second time. We picked some of the flowers on Thursday evening and that helped and it was exciting to pick five whole pounds of mesclun! It was raining off and on while we picked so the leaves were spattered with soil. We felt like 'real farmers' as we picked despite the rain.
I field washed the mesclun, mustard greens and radishes but...you need to wash the vegetables yourself.
Delivery #2
THIS WEEK'S DELIVERY
Radishes - small, a taste of things to come.
Mesclun
Mixed greens - a small taste of Red Russian Kale, Winterbor Kale, Siberian Dwarf Kale.
