Organic Produce Box and CSA shares last week

Every Friday a box like this arrives on my doorstep. It's full of seasonal organic produce that is locally grown. I love it!!! When I started cooking out of my pantry more and thought about ways to cut back on spending money for food I thought very hard about stopping my weekly produce delivery but I decided I couldn't do better at the regular grocery store or even the farmers market. If anything I want to eat more fruits and vegetables not less and pay more for them.



This boxes vegetables were:
1 Butternut Squash
1 bunch broccoli
2 bunches kale
1 head savoy cabbage
2 turnips
1 bunch carrots
1 bunch collard greens
2 red bell peppers
1 head of lettuce
2 lbs baby potatoes
1 onion

This boxes fruit was:
2lbs apples
4 oranges
8 tangelos
2lbs. lemons
