The 2009 season is off to a bountiful start, and I know everyone is enjoying eating so much fresh, local, organic food. Thank you, Michael, for all your farming talent and hard work!
For many of us, being part of a CSA requires a slight lifestyle shift as we become better connected to the food we eat and where it comes from. Having a personal relationship with our farmer also creates a more personal relationship with our food. For me, summer eating is about building meals around what is currently in season, trying vegetables that are different from what I might normally buy, and cooking in new ways. Sometimes, we have such an abundance of good eats that using them all is actually a challenge. (I admit that I had one extra head of unused lettuce at the end of last week. We don't have pigs, but we do have a groundhog named Phil who frequents our yard, so rest assured that the lettuce did not go totally to waste!) Anyhow, this blog is a place where we can ask questions, share stories, swap recipes, build community, and reap even more rewards of healthy localvore eating.
