Seasonal local veg in this week’s boxes
July 7, 2011
This week sees the first courgettes from expert grower Mark Norman and the last of the french beans from the CSA’s polytunnel. Also potatoes from Jeremy Brown at St Kew Harvest. Everyone will have:
* courgettes (Mark)
* swiss chard (Camel CSA)
* french beans (Camel CSA)
* basil (Camel CSA)
* turnips (Camel CSA)
* cucumber (Camel CSA)
* potatoes (St Kew Harvest)
Standard boxes will also have:
* red kale (Camel CSA)
* peas (Camel CSA)
* beetroot (Camel CSA)
* = grown to organic principles
UPDATE: The peas aren’t quite ready despite the recent heavy rain. So, instead, all the boxes have a bunch of freshly-picked radishes and extra kale (lots of it!)
