First CSA Day of Fall

Our CSA share from Finger Pickin' Farms:


This week it contains bok choy, butternut squash, turnips, lettuce (6 heads!), red and white potatoes, peppers, and radishes.

Our eating habits have definitely turned toward fall foods already--soups, quiches, and roasted vegetables have all been on the menu lately. I am really enjoying eating with the seasons. Tonight we cooked up some potato soup with potatoes from our CSA share, and last week we made sorrel soup with sorrel from our garden (a great wedding present from a friend).

Speaking of the garden, it's going pretty wild. We're still harvesting tomatoes, though the stream has slowed. We've got lots of green peppers and jalapenos, quite a few watermelons, and plenty of herbs to eat.

Now that bok choy is in season again, I've got a recipe to share with you soon!

I hope your week is just dandy and that you're eating well.

  1. I don't think I've ever had turnips or bok choy. I'm curious to see the recipe.

    And congrats! I've nominated you for a Kreative Blogger award! :)

  2. Are you guys getting Fall weather where you are yet? It's been pretty elusive down here.... I'm ready for soup, and scarves, and all manner of Autumnal goodness, but -- the weather refuses to cooperate. Sigh.
