The Weekly E-Share -- October 31, 2006

Category: 

This week only the weekly e-share will be available here. Enjoy!


From the Editor:This week, enjoy true fall and winter vegetables of cauliflower and kale. White russian kale is a curly kale with white midribs and delicate flavor. It would be excellent simply sauteed in olive oil and garlic and served over pasta or rice. It's nice to have sweet potatoes to bake or steam, and the last of beans are coming our way, it seems. Enjoy the ever-crispening weather, and see you at distribution!
