Greensgrow CSA Week 17: Montreal Bound!

  • Baby Spinach - Graiff Farms, Newfield, NJ
  • Bell Peppers - Lancaster, PA
  • Chives - Flaim Farms, Vineland, NJ
  • Honeycrisp Apples - Three Spring Fruit Farm, Aspers, PA
  • Eggplant - Linvilla Orchards, Media,PA
  • Beets - Flaim Farms, Vineland, NJ
  • Goat Chevre - Shellbark Hollow Farm, West Chester, PA
  • Eggs, eggs, eggs!  All mine got used up making birthday party food.
  • Bluefish - E. Frank Hopkins, caught in New Jersey

What a delightful fall bounty.  Yet I am Montreal-bound!  Eric has offered to pick up my basket this week, as well as eat anything that will be bad before I return.  (And the fish.  As cucumbers are to me, fish is to bda.)

I’m super excited for the chevre!  Jenn got a container of it earlier this year in a honey variety, so I’m hoping that flavor will be available, but all the Shellbark Hollow chevres I’ve tried have been really tasty.  The Honeycrisp apples, at least from the description, seem more suitable for fresh eating than baking, so some apple salads might be in my future.  And Mary’s promised eggplant may finally get delivered after all!

But in the meantime, any suggestions for must-eats in Montreal?
