Community Supported Agriculture Farms
In the spirit of good food and cooking, we have decided to subscribe to a CSA farm which in turn, gives a box of local, organic produce every week. What do we get? It depends on what is in season which is great and it means not cooking the same old boring thing. Our box comes from Terra Firma Farms out in Winters, CA (http://www.terrafirmafarm.com/index.html) and its delivered to 555 Capitol Mall, which is right across the street from us! We get a medium sized box which is supposed to be for 3-4 people. We are only two.
How are we going to use up all of the produce?
Urban Family Dinner — of course! (See next posts to find out how they went)
We’ve had some beautiful tomatoes, squash, red bell peppers, green beans, persimmons, grapes, new potatoes, carrots, onions, garlic, mesclun greens and last, but not least, spinach.
Having great, local, organic produce practically delievered to your door is fantastic. It cuts down on grocery shopping as well as supporting the community.
This is very green of us.
