Farm To Philly :: Eat Local!

Weekly CSA Report: Red Earth Farm

Wednesday, October 03, 2007

This week’s share:
-A double order of sweet potatoes. We had them baked last night, and I’m thinking of making mashed tonight.
-Fennel. I love eating this either raw or roasted.
-Carrots. A good staple to have.
-Collard greens. Also for tonight.
-Red radicchio. I do love the bitter greens. Thinking of braising these and adding to pasta.
-Empire apples (from the buying club). Crunchy and sweet.

We have five more weeks of shares left for the season.

I made pasta the other night with radicchio, it was yummy! Here’s the recipe - I was also able to use some rosemary out of the garden, which was nice.

BTW, when does your CSA officially end for the year?

Excellent-- thanks for the recipe! I have some rosemary growing in a pot at home, too, so I’ll make good use of that!

The last CSA delivery for me will be Nov. 6.

Support a local farmer, crave the freshest produce, worry about what's in or on your food - whatever your reason for eating locally grown and produced food in the Philadelphia area, Farm to Philly is probably writing about it. We're focused on where to find it, how to grow it, and what to do with it!
