Produce Report: Many ‘a treats!

Green Cabbage, quartered and ready for the pot!

Hello all and Happy Monday! We hope you remembered to set your clocks one hour forward. This week’s bins are looking great! Don’t forget to use your cabbage and red potatoes for a yummy St. Patty’s Day meal!

Irish favorites aren’t the only treats this week. These Murcott mandarins may be tiny, but sure pack in the flavor!! Delicious!

They are coming to us from Twin Girls Farm in the Fresno County area of California. Fun Fact: In 1991, twin girls were born to Nacho and Casamira Sanchez, the orchard owners, inspiring the name of the Farm.

We’ve also got gorgeous Red Butter Lettuce, also known as Bibb or Boston lettuce. They are known for their soft, tender leaves and lots of flavor. Mix a little lemon juice, dijon mustard, olive oil and salt & pepper for a quick and delicious salad. Yummy!

Another hearty green in this week’s bins are the rainbow carrots.  They are brought to us from Lakeside Farm, near the coast just south of San Francisco. Try pickling them for a long shelf life and a delicious addition to salads or as  a snack.

One of our favorite items this week are the Bosc Pears. They are  always fun tophotograph, and eat, of course!  They are brought to us from Wenatchee, Washington.

So many treasures this week! How will you be using yours? We’d love to hear about it! Share your recipes on our Facebook page

Have a great week! 🙂
