Order for Tuesday, March 1 (March 4 for Kendall)

Happy March 1st to all! (I can't believe we're in March already.) Below you will find the list for produce. Please ask your host if you would like to add a fruit share or get eggs regularly with your order.

Also available: local raw honey $20/half gallon; org. olive oil for $12/liter; org. coconut oil from Tropical Traditions for $14/quart or $40/ gallon. $2 is refundable if you return the honey jar or the quart-size coconut oil jar. Please give your host your order for smoked fish dip, mahi or salmon, available in 2 weeks.

This week we do not have the full $18 bread shares available, only a limited number of bread loaves. After the regular orders are filled, they will be offered on a first come, first serve basis.

Tips for storing ginger root if you still have some sitting in your fridge! You can just throw it into a bag and into the freezer, either in a whole chunk or broken/cut up in sized pieces you would typically use. Another option is to put chunks (peeled or not) into a jar, cover with sherry wine and store in your fridge. It will keep for months, but is best used for cooking purposes. If you want to use for juicing or beverages or raw, store in the freezer.
