We hope everyone had a happy and safe 4th of July Weekend!
We are excited to announce that aside from the fruit in the boxes, this is all The Farm grown.
This week’s boxes contain:
Broccoli, Fennel, Kale, Zucchini, Sweet Onions, Kiwi and Limes
Care for this week’s box.
Broccoli: Store in the crisper section of the fridge. Best used within 3 days but will last up to a week.
Fennel- this may be a new one for some of you. Remove the fennel fronds from the bulb- the fronds are edible and are often used for decoration as well. The bulb has almost a licorice taste to it. Fennel is great raw and takes on a new flavor roasted. Click here for a great article about how to prepare and use the fennel!
Kale- like the lettuce, the kale may look a little wilted after you unpack it. A quick cold water rinse and wrap it in a dish towel for storage in the fridge. When using the kale, tear the leaves off of the stems.
Zucchini- store in the fridge- best if used within 5 days.
Sweet Onions- store somewhere dry and dark
Kiwi can be left out until they reach desired ripeness
Lime can be left out or stored in the fridge.
