CSA Newsletter for Week 20 1/2 :-)

Farm Update

The farm kitties love to sit on the soft onion skins that
 gather around our onion cleaner!

Hi everyone!  Welcome to week 20 1/2, which is the final week for the Alma and Mt. Pleasant drop-offs!  Since we started the Monday and Tuesday drop-offs the week after the Lansing and Midland drop-offs started, the folks who pick up in Alma and Mt. Pleasant get an extra week of veggies!  So we'll see you guys over the next few days for your final drop-off!

What to Expect in This Week's Share

If you are picking up at the regular drop-offs this week, here are your options:

• Potatoes or a bag of small onions
• Lettuce
• Squash or sweet potatoes
• Beets, leeks, or cabbage
• Radishes, kale, or turnips
• Baby carrots or Brussels sprouts
• Onion

If you have your share delivered to your home or workplace, here are your options this week:

Share A:  Potatoes, romaine lettuce, squash, leeks, kale, Brussels sprouts, and a red onion.

Share B: Bag of small onions, romaine lettuce, squash, cabbage, turnips, baby carrots, and a red onion.

Share C:  Potatoes, spring mix, sweet potatoes, beets, radishes, baby carrots, and a red onion.

             

Recipes

Is it just me, or when the weather gets like this, do you just want to eat hot soup for pretty much every meal?  Here is a great recipe for Smokey Sausage, Kale, and Sweet Potato Soup to warm you up!  This is a great way to use many of the fall veggies that are available this time of year, and it's so versatile that you can switch out ingredients and throw in other items that you have kicking around in your kitchen.  Enjoy and stay warm! :-)
