In Today's Share:
Kale
Swiss Chard
Lettuce
Cilantro
Arugula
Tomatoes (Ripe and Unripe/Green)*
Potatoes (German Butter Ball or Red Maria)**
Garlic
Delicata Winter Squash

*The very, very last tomatoes of the season. Hard green ones won't ripen are tasty fried or in chutney or ketchup.

**German Butterball potatoes make the yummiest mashed potatoes. Red Maria are a delicious red-skinned potato that we love roasted.

Welcome to the CSA!
Thank you for becoming members of our fall CSA and welcome to all of the new members. We are thrilled to be able to offer a fall extension to the CSA and to be growing food into the fall and winter. We hope you enjoy eating the veggies as much as we enjoy growing them.

Storage
- All leafy things store best in a plastic bag in the fridge and should last at least two weeks if stored that way.
- We leave our potatoes dirty so that they store longer. They do best in a cool, dry, very dark place. Wash just before using.
- Winter squash lasts up to a couple of months in a cool, dry place. You can also cook it and freeze it if you want to save it for after the New Year.
- Tomatoes don't do well in the fridge, where they turn mealy. Many people put them in a window to ripen, though the unripe, green tomatoes this week won't ripen.

CS-Eggs!
Contact us if you want to add eggs to your share at $4 a dozen.
