PUGET SOUND FARM BOX
half shares + base shares + large shares

Celeriac, Boldly Grown Farm, Bow, WA - Also known as celery root, this weird-looking vegetable can be used the same as any tuber: mashed, roasted, even hasselbacked!

Purple Sprouting Broccoli, Cabrera Farms, Mount Vernon, WA - Similar to raab, PSB is an early spring delicacy with a sweet and nutty flavor. The purple fades when cooked; try it boiled, steamed, stir-fried, griddled, roasted, or even air-fried!

Purple Potatoes, First Cut Farms, Mount Vernon, WA - This heirloom potato has a nutty, buttery taste and is perfect for roasting, baking, boiling, smashing, or making the perfect potato salad.

Cauliflower, Hedlin Farm, La Conner, WA - With its mild, nutty flavor, cauliflower is incredibly versatile. Whether roasted, steamed, or even turned into rice or a creamy mash, it adds a healthy twist to any meal!

Leeks, Ralph’s Greenhouse, Mount Vernon, WA - A milder cousin of onion and garlic, leeks add a sweet, oniony flavor that give depth to any meal. Use them anywhere you’d use alliums, or try them on their own! Save the dark leafy tops for use in homemade stock.

Red Beets, Westwind Organics, Carnation, WA - Earthy and naturally sweet, red beets shine roasted, shaved raw into slaws, or blended into vibrant soups.

Lacinato Kale Raab, Westwind Organics, Carnation, WA - Raab is the flower shoot that forms on overwintered brassicas — kale, broccoli, arugula, etc. It is a vegetable ephemeral, similar to daffodils or crocuses. This beauty is great when cooked: in soups, stir-frys, pasta, risotto, or pizza. I love it sauteed with a splash of lemon juice!
