Just as we started figuring out how to deal with all the leafy greens like spinach and kale (ex: smoothies), their growing season has started to wind down.
We are looking forward to our next CSA box which should include some summer crops of raspberries and carrots.
We gobbled up the broccoli, spring onions, spinach, and kale from last week’s box
What We Bought:
- Oberweis milk from family farms around IL and WI
- Turano bread from Berwyn, IL
- Greenridge Farm lunchmeat from Elk Grove Village, IL
- Greenridge Farm chicken sausage from Elk Grove Village, IL
- Did do some random shopping at Trader Joes
- Non-local flour and sugar
What We Learned:
- The quality of your blender makes a huge difference when making smoothies.
- Spinach season does not last forever. Thank goodness!
- We still don’t know what to do with radishes…
waste not want not 
A friend who raises his own radishes says he likes bread and butter sandwiches with radishes. Haven’t tried them myself.
