A nice note from our friend Laurel….

Hey Margie,

I wanted to tell you how pleased I have been with Vegetable Husband! I await with eager anticipation each Wednesday to see what will show up in my basket. I always hang your letter on my fridge as a reminder of how my participation is helping to support our local food economy. I am so grateful for the thought that goes into each week’s selection and the farmers that make it all possible. I have thoroughly enjoyed exploring new varieties of food since I have made a commitment to eating locally a year and a 1/2 ago. Sunchokes, turnips, rutabaga, are okra are just a few of these new discoveries. I do have to say, however, that after eating hearty greens throughout the summer, this week’s lettuce seemed a little pale in comparison. The arugula was heavenly though!

Thanks for all you do.

In apprecation,
Laurel

Being alive on this rough green and brown planet is the highest honor and privilege. It’s an invitation to work wonders and perform miracles that aren’t possible in any nirvana, promised land, or afterlife…we are already living in paradise…the sweet stuff that quenches all of our longing is not far away in some other time and place. It’s right here and right now.
