Greensgrow CSA Week 23

  • Brussels Sprouts - Lancaster County, PA
  • Collard Greens - Flaim Farms, Vineland, NJ
  • Bosc Pears - Three Springs Fruit Farm, Aspers, PA
  • Spaghetti Squash - Lancaster County, PA
  • Red Onions - Porter Farms, Tuscarora Organics Co-op, PA
  • Sweet Potatoes - White Swan Acres, Lancaster, PA
  • Raw Colby cheese - Swiss Villa Dairy, Lykens, PA
  • Gotta have my eggs!
  • Smoked Turkey Breast - Koch’s Turkey Farm, Tamaqua, PA

This week is a grab bag of fall flavors.  Last week’s bacon fat is hanging around… maybe waiting to make those brussels sprouts tastier?  Niki tried to convince me this week that sweet potatoes are better than regular potatoes (because you can’t make a cake out of regular potatoes), so I can test that theory this week.  Have a recipe for spaghetti squash you like?  How about collards?  Recommendations are very welcome!

I may have to do another cheese wrap-up soon.  The Portelet from week 19 was a big hit with bda, but the cream cheese from last week was a bust.  I might still bake with it, at least.  But it seems like the cheeses have been even better this year than last, and there’s been a much better variety, too (waaay fewer Jacks.)
