It’s a chilly day for the last CSA distribution of 2010. It’s 16 degrees out there!

Picadilly and Riverland farm crews packed share boxes together yesterday at Picadilly Farm. The boxes were loaded onto a truck.  The truck was parked in a nice warm (50 degree) barn overnight to keep the produce from freezing. Right about now, 7 AM, the Picadilly driver is climbing into that warm truck and starting the two hour drive to Lexington. Godspeed to you, Picadilly truck!

Here’s a list of what’s in the share.

Riverland Farm
Cabbage, green, 1 head
Carrots, 6 pounds
Onions, 2 pounds, either red or yellow
Popcorn, 1 bouquet

Picadilly Farm

Butternut, 7 pounds (2-3 pieces)
Celeriac, 2-2.5 pounds

Winter radishes, 1 pound

Moraine Farm
Two pounds of Bear’s Best Beans, one pound of light red kidney beans and one pound of your choice.

Busa Farm
