Yup. That's it. Kale, cabbage, tomatoes, cherry tomatoes, parsley, cilantro, basil, two peppers and a tiny melon. My onions are missing. It kinda looked like someone was in my box. Maybe they swapped out their smaller things for my bigger stuff? Maybe they stole my onions?
I'll have to get there earlier. I feel like the other boxes are worth what I was paying.
This box....not so much. This box looks more like a personal share than a premium share. Other CSA's post pics of what they're putting out that week. I wish they did that here. I'll try to get there earlier next week. Hopefully, my box won't be so lame.
Also, this might be my last getting a CSA box from Honey Brook anyway. One of the primary reasons I chose this farm was because they didn't support any animal agriculture. They now apparently have a beekeeper who's selling honey and beeswax. Seriously? Bleh.
What's my issue with honey? Way back when, honey did have a lot of amazing properties. It was also a seasonal item sold in limited quantities. Now it's being mass produced year round, with bees being fed a constant fast food diet of sugar water (not good for you, not good for them) and constantly terrorized with billowing smoke. Now, if someone consistently made you think your house was on fire, so they could steal all your stuff, would you be happy and calm or living in a constant state of fear? I don't believe the honey being produced today in the current "traditional" method is producing anything that resembles the honey that used to be good for you. I want no part of that crap, so I'm going to start looking into different CSA's for next year. I'll keep you posted.
Wow! thanks for trying this out for me ahead of time... xoxoxo
