The first heavy frost hit the farm this weekend! All the tender vegetables were covered with floating row covers to keep them protected over the very cold nights and so far all is looking good under the covers.
This weeks basket:
Sweet potatoes - Just in case you are running out of ideas of what to do with your sweet potatoes here are 45 delicious and healthy sweet potato recipes
Carrots - Egyptian roast carrot and avocado salad
Garlic
Onions
Lettuce
Cabbage - Call me a cabbage , I'm in a curry!!
Sweet Peppers - We promise this is the last week! We have had a bumper crop this year and just before the heavy frost we harvested the last of them for this season.
Leeks - Carrot and leek cobbler
Parsnips - They are not huge but we do have parsnips fresh out the ground after the two heavy frosts this weekend. At this stage you can just give them a good scrub and not bother to peel them.
Sage - It did get a little frost damage but not much, to dry your sage hang upside down in a paper bag in a cool dark room. Once dry crunch the leaves into pieces and place in an air tight jar.
Watermelon Radish
Asian Greens
Kohlrabi - Stir-fried venison with kohlrabi rice
