Harvesting Radishes and Arugula
We are incredibly excited to share two new crops with you at the farm stand this week: radishes and arugula! This round of radishes is the “Easter Egg” variety so you’ll see a mix of red, pink, purple, and white radishes in the bunches at the farm stand. They can be enjoyed raw, pickled, or cooked. Don’t forget that you can eat their leafy green tops, too! Head here to read all about cooking with radish greens. Since arugula is back in season, you could whip up a quick arugula salad with thinly sliced radishes and dress it with a creamy pesto dressing made with the radish greens. You can get both of these fall veggies at the farm stand.
Our Harvest Market is coming up on Saturday, November 5th! This special market is a collaboration with The Informal Grub, the team behind the Rice Village and Heights Mercantile Farmers Markets. The Harvest Market will take place on the farm on November 5th from 9am-noon and will include 20 different vendors with an assortment of locally made or grown goods like eggs, meat, prepared foods, and flowers. This market is free to attend and is open to the public. We hope to see you there!
In Season at the Farm Stand: Arugula, Radishes, Winter Squashes (only available at the Saturday farm stand), Okra, Asian Eggplants, Italian Eggplants, Indian Eggplants, Sweet Peppers, Roselle Greens, and Zinnia and Marigold Bouquets.
Coming Soon: Cucumbers, Collard Greens, and Swiss Chard
