You make a very good point about getting to pick what you want and select the amounts you want as opposed to a CSA share. One thing I like about our CSA this year is that there are some choices; for example, when you go to pick up your share, you bag up your items yourself, and you might get to pick whether you want radishes or beets or turnips, and whether you want bok choy or mixed greens or arugula. A few years ago the CSA we did landed me with pattypan squash and bok choy coming out my ears... not my favorite! :-/ sarah mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18016489034529811005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611566.post-91538517623125727102013-06-27T20:09:22.102-04:002013-06-27T20:09:22.102-04:00oh, and I know how to pronounce "quinoa"...oh, and I know how to pronounce "quinoa"--CarolMom taught me.SteveDadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611566.post-42111695701077530502013-06-27T20:07:49.147-04:002013-06-27T20:07:49.147-04:00These all look splendid!These all look splendid!SteveDadnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611566.post-55697337864177146082013-06-26T17:27:55.804-04:002013-06-26T17:27:55.804-04:00Love love love CSA's! Unfortunately the farm ...Love love love CSA's! Unfortunately the farm we typically use ended up backing out in May, so we didn't have a chance to find a new one. But, I have to say, it made me step up my gardening plans, and walking outside to pick lettuce for our salad is very rewarding! Love the beets!

Luckily, we have great farmer's markets and a good farm to table delivery service as well. That way we can get smaller amounts of fresh produce and not feel as stressed about it! :) Another issue is that a lot of the produce that is available are things we don't like (read: never tried, didn't like when we were kids, etc, etc). I'm so very intrigued by your roasted beets though. I may have to give it a try!kate @ be merry, katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12267497102097890814noreply@blogger.com
