For the last week of the year (!) do we go with salad veg or roasting veg?
We’ve tried to mix it up a little - plenty of summer salad veg in bean, cucumber, radish, lettuce and tomato; along with new season pumpkin, capsicum, and of course carrots and spuds.
Enjoy the last weeks veg box and eat well over the break 😀
The seasonal changes continue. A burst of heat and we have Beans coming back (hopefully) and from closer to home we have the super sweet Sugar Snap Peas from northern Vic and Tomato from down Gippsland. And if the rain...
First week of Summer should see us tilt more to those salad vegies and away from brassicas and root veg. However, we still have a nice mix all the way through to Christmas.
Vic growers bringing broad beans, leafy greens, brassicas and new season stone fruit.
We’re seeing the first signs of the seasons crossing over with artichoke, broad beans, asparagus slowing whilst local growers starting to bring in cucumber, and victorian snow peas starting off strongly.
Early signs of the seasons changing with new season snow peas and zucchini from Vic growers.
Biodynamic shelling peas from Mildura arriving this week for the veg boxes, whilst snow peas are also back in season.
Peas, shelling and snow, are starting to arrive for Spring now we are getting some warmer overnights. This week marks to official (?!) end of the frosts 🙂
The boxes are heavy on the leafy greens in the Vics this week, with salad veg of radish, mixed salad and fennel featuring - along with new season asparagus and avana mandarins.
