CSA delivery 11/3/2008

There are still vegetables available! The mild weather (and a little frost protection) has extended my fall crops a little longer than I expected.

I'm still delivering weekly to a reduced number of CSA subscribers and have extra room for a few more this week. A Wednesday morning delivery is scheduled for the Hyde Park Art Center and the Reader building. Anyone interested?

Orders are still $15 and I'm expecting to harvest fresh kale, Swiss chard, green garlic, and cardoon (popular in Victorian days, find recipes and info at http://italianfood.about.com/library/rec/blr0327.htm).
I'm also including a jar of ajvar, a roasted red pepper relish with eggplants, garlic, onions, and is mildly spicy.

I'm applying to be a vendor at the 61st Street indoor farmers' market on Saturdays. It'll be in the Experimental Station at 61st and Blackstone. I'm planning on selling yarn and preserves at several winter farmers' markets and will be posting dates when they get confirmed. So far I've finished a few batches of fruit butters and ajvar. Quince marmalade is in the works this week if I can schedule kitchen time!

I'm definitely be selling yarn and knitwear at the DIY Trunk Show at the Pulaski Park Fieldhouse, on Blackhawk east of Ashland, on November 22.
