Butternut Squash:

This delicious squash has a rich, natural sweetness that can’t be beat! It becomes tender and slightly caramelized when roasted, but also works well baked, steamed, sautéed, braised, or grilled. Butternut squash shines in warming soups. Its also equally as delicious in gnocchi, pies, casseroles, and pasta-inspired dishes, where its smooth texture and sweet flavor really stands out.

Spinach:

Spinach is  known for its tender leaves and mild, slightly earthy flavor. It can be eaten raw in salads, added to smoothies, or cooked in various dishes like soups, stir-fries, and casseroles. Its versatility and nutritional benefits make it a popular choice in many cuisines around the world!

White Cauliflower:

White cauliflower is a super versatile veggie with a dense, creamy-white head made of tightly packed florets. It has a mild, slightly nutty flavor that gets even better when cooked. Raw, it’s crisp and crunchy; cooked, it turns tender and a little creamy. You can toss cauliflower into just about anything: roast it in the oven, sauté it, fry it, steam it, or add it to soups, pastas, and stir-fries. It’s also great mashed, puréed, or chopped into “rice” for quick bowls and weeknight meals. Cauliflower takes on flavors easily, pairing well with warm spices like cumin or curry, and with cheeses like cheddar or Parmesan.

Nantes Carrots:

Our Nantes carrots are sweet, tender, and pulled young by hand for the best flavor. These French heirlooms have smooth skin and a crisp bite, way better than the woody carrots you find at the store. Enjoy them raw with hummus, sliced into salads, or roasted to bring out their natural sweetness. They’re also great for juicing! Store in the fridge (without the greens) and use within a couple of weeks for the freshest taste.

Leeks:

Leeks have a mild, slightly sweet flavor that’s way more delicate than onions or garlic. The entire thing is edible, though the white and light green portions are the most tender and flavorful. Once cooked, leeks turn soft and silky. They bring a mellow, savory sweetness to dishes without being too overpowering. They’re perfect for soups, stews, braises, and broths. Leeks really shine in classics like potato leek soup, quiches, sautés, and stir-fries. These leeks are ideal for roasting or grilling. Their mildness also makes them an excellent choice for raw preparations like salads.

Napa Cabbage:

Napa cabbage is the frillier, lighter cousin of the common green cabbage. Its tender, pale leaves have a mild, slightly sweet flavor and a satisfying crunch. Perfect for everything from crisp salads to stir-fries! Enjoy it raw or shredded into slaws, where its ruffled leaves add both texture and freshness. You can also sauté it with a little oil, salt, and pepper until it turns silky and subtly sweet. Napa cabbage shines in soups, stews, noodle dishes, and of course, in kimchi.

Washington Navel Oranges:

These Washington Navel oranges come from Blue Heron Farm in Rumsey, about 6 miles up the road from us. They’re CCOF-certified organic and will be a feature in our veggie boxes for the next few weeks or so. They have a bright, sweet citrus flavor that’s juicy and refreshing. Seedless and easy to peel, they’re great for juicing, slicing, or eating by the section. Want to add them to your next order? Order through our webstore at least 2 days before delivery!
