I was intrigued by the concept of fresh, seasonal, local, organic food at a reasonable price. The advantages of non-industrial food have been discussed in many different places, most prominently probably in Michael Pollan's book 'The Omnivores Dilemma'. I hope I am doing not only me, but also the environment a favor.
An added bonus: It will be easier to try a new recipe each month since new ingredients are thrown at me all the time. I'm quite excited!
In this weeks box:
- Fava Beans
- Baby Carrots
- Shallots
- Lettuce
- Strawberries
- Scallions or Summer Squash or Artichokes (depending on nature's mood)

Ah, very cool. I have always meant to subscribe to a local farm, but was late in signing up last year and this year am not sure where I will end up home wise.
Hope you enjoy. Plus you should post up any good recipes you discover. =)
Best.
