First CSA from Kretschmann Farm

CSA1-1

We received our first share from the farm. Here’s what was in our crate:

2 bgs Spring Mix/Salad Greens
1 lg. & 1 sm. Head of Bibb Lettuce
1 bg. Spinach
1 XLg. Kale Bunch
5 Radishes (good-sized)
1 bg. of Fresh Herbs (Oregano, Thyme and Sage)
20 oz. Loaf of 7 Grain Bread from Friendship Farm in the Laurel Highlands
1 oz. sample each of French Herb Chevre and Feta made of Goat’s milk from River View Dairy*

*we obviously didn’t ask for this since it’s not vegan, but I am sure that whoever gets it from us will be happy*

We have lots of fantastic salad fodder, which is good because it was too hot today to cook much! It’s 82, but feels like 87 and it’s almost 10PM! I can’t wait until next week or the week after when the broccoli and cauliflower are ready! We are excited and pleased all around.

I have more pictures here and here of the bounty.
