CSA Week One!

I have been wanting to join a CSA (community supported agriculture) since starting my "healthy lifestyle" last year. I planned on growing a garden this year, but that didn't happen. So, I did the next best thing: I joined a CSA! We went into it a few weeks late so picked up our first basket this week. We paid $245 (prorated) for weekly baskets of produce until mid-October! The farm we chose is a MOFGA-certified organic farm. We can also pick our own herbs & flowers there.

Here is Maya with her bag to fill up:

Here is a sign of the week's goodies:

YUM! Everything is unbelievably good-definitely not the produce you pick up at the grocery store!
Here we are walking to the herb garden to pick our basil & mint:

And here is our haul all laid out:

Look at all that yummy goodness! Seriously, I don't think I've ever had fresh garlic? And who knew carrots came in purple & yellow? And the yellow squash was actually orange?!
