Farm Happenings for October 5, 2020

Posted on October 2nd, 2020 by Joan Norman

We have added cauliflower and romanesco to the availability list for this week. Romanesco is one of my favorite fall veggies. It grows in a fractal pattern, and when you cut it off of the stem it breaks apart into roughly even sized pieces. I like to roast it with olive oil, salt, and pepper as a simple side dish or toss it with sautéed sausage, onion, garlic, olive oil, goat cheese, and pasta. Think of it as a grown up Mac and cheese dinner!

We also have the first of the fall root crops coming in. Beets and turnips are both great options for a quick roasted side. We also have radishes, lettuce, and cherry tomatoes for a great salad to celebrate the last of the warm evenings.
