the CSA project

Right now, in Seattle, spring is peeking out from the covers, but from the garden's perspective, seems a long way away. We decided, as the pea shoots emerge from the ground and the over-wintered spinach does its best to grow beyond baby-spinach status, to enroll in a CSA and get a box of produce a week. We went with Full Circle Farms -- and so far so good. Right now, the box has a lot of produce that isn't local (I guess our garden isn't the only one under the covers) but most of the rest of the produce is organic. We can even make substitutions, say if some okra was slated to be in the box.

With this new weekly assortment of produce will hopefully come blog posts and new recipes! Stay tuned -- I think first up might be Quinoa with Basil and Red Peppers.

ps. The cats really are interested in the box as well
