Happy Wednesday! We’ve got a great basket coming to your doors today, and I have some fun news about a local event on Friday that you guys will totally dig. But first! What’s in the basket? This week, you can expect:

One of the awesome things about Vegetable Husband is that Margie’s philosophy is all about getting good, healthy food to the people. Many of the volunteers work in trade for a basket of their own, and many of us couldn’t otherwise afford such fresh, local, organic food. That’s why I was super excited to hear this week that three of our drivers have brand new jobs! Yay! Read on to find out who! Read the rest of this entry »

Meet Brian, who’s going to be helping out as our farm manager this month!
Margie is taking evening classes this month, as she gets her home ready for a foster child who’s coming to live with her! The fabulous Brian is stepping in to help make sure we still get our lovely baskets of fresh veggies. He rode out to Serenbe and to Steve Miller’s farm today, and starting next week he’ll be picking up our veggies for us while Margie’s in class. As you can see in the photo above, Brian loves those veggies!
Margie often finds little leftovers in the empty baskets she brings us. Sometimes, it’s a stray turnip or maybe some leaves that escaped a bundle of greens. Other times, there are more interesting leftovers in the baskets…. Read the rest of this entry »

Margie is down in New Orleans this week on a much-needed vacation, but never fear! Laura Louise and Mary are on the case, getting those lovely veggies and making sure they make it to your front door. This week we’re getting a nice mix of root veggies and greens, and our herb is thyme.
I don’t know about you guys, but I always have trouble figuring out what to do with those beets. Sure, you can juice them, but if juicing’s not your thing you probably struggle with those bright red veggies each week. Sunchokes are another one that stump me after I’ve gotten them for a few weeks in a row. Never fear! I’ve tracked down some recipes to help out with the beets and sunchokes in your basket that also use some of the other veggies we’re getting this week.

I believe strongly that you get back from the universe what you put out there, and this week at Vegetable Husband was a prime example of great karma!
