Week #5

We had missed our farm share vegetables greatly, so it was with great anticipation that we walked over to pick up the latest installment yesterday. On the way, we realized we weren't the only ones that were excited...

New York City is still under the spell of World Cup mania. Each country seems to have created at least one "headquarters" location to watch the game. The Germans picked Loreley Restaurant and Biergarten and were spilling out into the middle of the street to celebrate Germany's victory over Argentina. (The photo doesn't do the crowd justice. The sea of revelers had to part to let cars through.)

Here are the vegetables for this week:
We will be enjoying radishes, carrots, chioggia beets (they have stripes), garlic scapes, kohlrabi, turnips, salad greens, and braising greens (mustard greens, Asian greens, kale and more).
