Well, it’s finally happened. S and I received our very last summer CSA share yesterday. Sigh. I really shouldn’t complain, though. Our “summer” share lasted halfway through October, which is nearly a month into autumn. Not too shabby. Neither were the contents of our box:

Root veggies galore!
Although the pickings aren’t exactly slim, they’re surely not as numerous as they have been in weeks past. What this box lacks in variety, however, it makes up in, um, volume. There’s some weighty produce in there! Including this little guy, who escaped my original photo:

Squashy.
So – what’s in the box? (Other than a WHOLE LOTTA CARROTS!)
- Bok choy
- Butternut squash
- Carrots
- Cilantro
- Cippollini onion
- Garlic
- Red cabbage
- Spinach
- Sweet dumpling squash
- Sweet potato
…yep, it’s definitely autumn. :)
As usual… what should I make with my haul?
S and I already enjoyed a curried carrot soup, but there’re still lots more veggies to eat!

Beautiful share. Now that your season is coming to a close, what did you like best and least? What was the hardest thing to use in your shares?

What a great question! I loved all the dark leafy greens, but I had a hard time with lettuce. Sounds silly, but I just don’t eat a lot of lettuce-based salads.
