Camel CSA’s over-wintered cut and come again salad leaves are loving the longer days and warmer weather.

We’re growing a mixture of oriental and more traditional leaves – spicy red mustard, mizuna and mibuna, pak choi, curly endive, lettuce, rocket and parsley in one of our polytunnels.

We harvested several healthy crops before Christmas, then let the plants rest during the short dark days of mid-winter.

Now we’ve all got an enormous bag of healthy, crunchy, green leaves in our weekly veg boxes and should continue to enjoy a regular supply for several weeks to come.
