Half Share: Chard, Little Gem Lettuce Heads, Hakurei Turnips OR Radishes, Microgreens, Garlic

Spring really has sprung at the farm this week! Seeding and transplanting continues in the greenhouses, and it is heartwarming to see the new little sprouts emerging from the soil. Spirits are high with longer days, baby lambs and piglets thriving, and sunshine drying out and melting away the coldness that comes with winter. There is excitement in the air with the new season ahead!

In your CSA boxes this week, you will find a variety of fresh greens to add some brightness to springtime dishes. You will also find a beautiful and unique herb - purple sage. Purple sage is a very medicinally effective herb and can be made into teas to help relieve chest colds and congestion. See some recipes below for using these fresh veggies and herbs in your cooking this week!
