In the box on Nov.15 and 16th: last CSA week of 2006!
Green Cabbage
** We occasionally use 'mystery' in our list. We use this as an item because of last minute harvest questions: some crops are hard to estimate. Imagine yourself looking at several rows of broccoli di cicco or zucchinis or cherry tomatoes. Even with Andy's 30 years of experience and Steven's 10+ years, it's hard to estimate. By using the 'mystery' item we're able to give you as much info as possible about the other items, while still putting off the harvest to the last moment to get you the freshest possible vegetables and fruit. Thank you.
