Hello All!
Happy 4th of July! I hope you all have fun plans for the holiday.
Produce this week:
Spicy salad mix
Head lettuce
Purpletop turnips with greens
Kale
Chard
Basil
Cherries-conventionally grown.
Vegetable highlight: purple top turnips
You can eat both the root and the green. The root is high in vitamin C and the green is high in vitamins A, C, E, and B6. Eat the beet greens raw in a salad or sautéed up in a stir-fry!
Recipes: 4 Quick Turnip Recipes
Farm Highlight: Green Things Farm
Green Things Farm is a 64 acre diverse organic farm on the north side of Ann Arbor. We have been growing vegetables since 2011. We are community oriented offering a chance for people to visit the farm through weekly dinners and a farmstand.
1. We have a bull named Charles–who is large, white, and sweet as can be.
2. We grow flowers for bouquets at the Saint Joes Market every Wednesday (and our bees like them too)
3. Tomatoes are one of our specialties.
Thank you as always for being a part of the Farm!
Take care,
Amanda and the Farm team.
