We appreciate the help of our Working Shares each week as we harvest and wash produce! To the right we have a picture of Intern Anna McFaul and CSA member Brian Minns washing spinach. Yesterday as I was speaking with another CSA Member I was reminded of a recipe she shared with me last season to use cabbage! I went digging in my recipe box and was happy to actually find it there. We had it for supper last night and it was enjoyed by all.
