Weekly storage tips:

Greens: Keep your greens in the provided bag. To rejuvenate your greens midweek, submerge them in cold water and give them a spin or shake, then drain in a colander. Since your greens are typically picked the day before delivery, they should stay fresh until your next share arrives.

Eggs: Consider making a quiche. Spinach and kale are two excellent quiche ingredients. Add a hint of nutmeg or a teaspoon of dried thyme leaves for an elegant touch to your spinach quiche. And for the omnivores, consider adding a pack of Shady Spring Farm's delicious Chorizo Sausage to your order. It pairs wonderfully with both spinach and kale quiche!
