Notes from May 25 delivery

I am confident this was a great decision Clarissa and I made to join this CSA.  It has been great fun and a challenge to use the vegetables we received last week before we had to pickup our latest delivery.

We got lettuce, a slightly different salad mix purchased from Moon Indigo Organic farm with lettuce already mixed in, bok choy, scallions, radishes, and some spinach.  Regarding the spinach, in my previous post I had mentioned Waterbear Farm had a bad cutworm problem.  We learned they lost their whole crop because of it.

On a good note, Polly informed the CSA members that Richard from Waterbear Farm discovered a remedy for the cutworm problem.  His solution is to sprinkel cornmeal around the plants and the cutworms eat it and die.  See, I told you this was fun, and I'm learning quite a bit!
