Box Contents:

2 lbs. Blue Heron Navel Oranges

1 hd. Fennel

2 hds. Batavia Lettuce

1 bu. Green Mustard

1 hd. Green Cabbage

1 bu. Red Beets

1 Butternut Squash

Box Notes: Cabbage season is upon us. Add cabbage chopped into chunks to soup broth, finely slice as a topping on posole, make slaws, make rice/beef stuffed cabbage leaves or enjoy in a salad combined with the Batavia lettuce and fennel. We’re gearing up for St. Patrick’s Day when corned beef and cabbage is a celebrated spring dish. We are experiencing a gap in our orange carrots harvest but they will be back!

The navel oranges are from Blue Heron Farm in Rumsey. They are CCOF certified organic. Correction: We will include oranges in the weekly veggie boxes through the middle of February. This year Blue Heron’s citrus yield was lower than last year, tho the fruits themselves were larger. Making for a shorter harvest season than usual. Blue Heron Oranges are now available for purchase in the web store: 10 lbs. for $20 or 20 lbs. for $40!

Capay Valley Almond Festival

Sunday February 25, 2018

A 6 hamlet celebration of the almond blossom season in the Capay Valley. Starting in Madison, driving along State Route 16, going about 20 miles up to Rumsey, you can view the orchards in bloom and stop to enjoy the music and food along the way.

The Rumsey Hall, a historic community hall built in 1906 at the northern end of the valley, serves wood-fired pizza, pork sliders and beer and features live music.
