A very bad photo of our last day at Market
As you know, the lighting at Winter Market is none-too-bright (although it is MUCH better than last year!), so even with a flash this photo of our last day at Market is still too dark. But if you look closely, perhaps you can make out the bags and bags of spinach, salad greens, lettuce and baby kale that sold out before the day was half over! The bags are actually made of cellophane (a non-plastic, non-petroleum, plant-based bag), even though they look like space-age foil in this photo! To the left you might be able to make out the bunches of kale, and we are so pleased to say that kale is still growing in our fields and will be feeding our family throughout the winter! We had leeks, lots of celeriac (recipes for celeriac will be coming!), cabbage, onions - and of course an abundance of winter squash. We even had the last of our Napa Cabbage - so sweet and delicious and hopefully back late in the spring!
We want to THANK EVERYONE for supporting our first season as Radical Roots Farm. While it is the land that provides us with the base on which we can grow our vegetables, it is YOU - our community - who provides us with the motivation to do so. And just as the soil nourishes the plants and allows them to grow and thrive, it is our community who nourishes us and allows us to grow and thrive. Thank you all for supporting us, encouraging us, allowing us to become a part of your lives.
Peace and Hope for the New Year
Carol and Dennis
