csa: week -8

In Illinois, our produce season runs usually from early May to late October.  Unless that is you have greenhouses and then you get stuff in March.  The regular season for the csa starts in May but we got a sneak taste of what’s to come and also, I spent about five hours helping assemble the second greenhouse.  Holy Crap, I’m exhausted!

The greens inside the existing greenhouse:

And my take away:

Totally worth five hours of labor for some fresh lettuce, spinach, kale, swiss chard, and some green garlic! (not that I had to work for it but it tasted better!)
