Spoutwood Farm

CSA Harvest Guide : Week 13

Spoutwood Spotlight : Teen Iron Chef

Spoutwood is lucky to have a dedicated member, Liz Weinwand, run the Teen Iron Chef program here at the farm. The summer session wrapped up a few weeks ago, but not before it made headlines. The York Dispatch came out and spent a day with the teens : http://www.yorkdispatch.com/food/ci_15878762.

Teen Iron Chef is starting to get the attention it deserves. It is a wonderful program that teaches teens how to prepare fresh, healthy food. From the sidelines, it is interesting to see the kids gain confidence in the kitchen; Liz offers guidance, but the teens teach each other.

TODAY'S HARVEST

The only new comer to your bag today is the herb, Thyme. Other than that, you are all familiar with the veggies in your share. However, we hope that you are as delighted with the return of bok choy, mustard greens, and radishes, as we are. Also expect to find peppers, eggplant, patty pan squash, yellow squash, and tomatoes.

SPOUTWOOD NEEDS BAGS

We are scrounging each week to find enough bags for the tomatoes. If you have any plastic shopping bags, please drop them off at the farm!
