Fall Veggie Box!


Interested in fresh local vegetables to keep you going into the winter? Want to avoid the chaos of the indoor farmers' market? You have come to the right place!  This year we are offering a 10 week veggie box from October 6th to December 8th.  Pick up at LUSH Valley (1126 Piercy St.) from 4-5:30pm.

Each week you will pick up $20 worth of veggies which will vary throughout the months as the season changes.  This equates to approximately 6-10 items, depending on the week. (Sample box list: "Brussel puffs, Beets, Celeriac, Potatoes (Norland), Onions, Lettuce, Parsley) (I will try and get a picture up soon!)

Hesitant because you're not much of a cook?  Not sure if you can eat that much food?  We provide recipes (both easy and fancy) for eating and preserving the veggies, as many of them will store well into the winter.


A list of some of the crops you might receive:
Parsnips
Winter Squash
Potatoes
Kale
Chard
Broccoli
Onions
Garlic
Celeriac
Celery
Parsley
Brussel Sprouts
Radishes
Lettuce
Beets
Spinach
Bok Choi
Kholrabi

We will also be offering "extra" options as they are available, that you can opt in for on a weekly basis. E.g. "$5 extra greens option", "$5 garlic option",  "$5 popcorn option" oh and there will almost always be extra squash available! This ensures that if $20 of veggies won't get you through the week you can supplement.

Email us if you're interested, or have further questions or concerns. Spaces are limited so sign up soon! We would like to supply you with your veggies this fall.
