First CSA Pick-Up


Today my mom and I ventured to Calvert's Gift farm to pick up our first share of vegetables and walk around the farm. Here is what was included this week:

Bok Choi
Spinach
Spring Salad Mix
Carrots
Strawberries
Scallions

We also got to pick up a few extras that they were offering. That white bag is full of a mix of kale, collards and chard. They also had some pea shoots and arugula which I threw in with my salad mix. My mom got those shitake mushrooms for asking the owner a question. See what happens when you ask questions- you might get some fungus.

Overall I am quite happy about all the veggies we got and I am excited to try them, although I already know the strawberries are sweet and delicious.
