Seasonal local veg in our boxes this week
May 5, 2011
Expert grower Jane Mellowship reports that she’s ‘having the hardest time yet filling the boxes with Cornwall grown contents.’ Sadly, the Cornish rhubarb she’d hoped to get hold of is not available. Hopefully, she says, ‘standard box customers will understand when they get smaller boxes and realise that over the year the value of the contents does even out.’
Everyone will have:
* lettuce (Camel CSA)
* mixed salad bag (Camel CSA)
potatoes (Burlerrow Farm, St Mabyn)
cauliflower (Restharrow Farm, Trebetherick)
spring greens (Restharrow Farm)
asparagus (Lower Croan, Sladesbridge)
Standard boxes will have extra potatoes plus:
* leeks (Jeremy Brown, St Kew Harvest)
* sprouted mung beans (Mark Norman)
* = grown to organic principles
