Vegies and Good Neighbors


Yesterday I picked up our box of vegies and fruits from full circle farm.  It's a combination of a little bit of many different things, including things we don't usually get.  So yesterday I was online looking up turnip recipes.  We ended up with one called Red Kidney Beans with Turnips.


 We're going to have to talk to them about recycling the boxes though. 

Also that day, our neighbor came by with a jar of pickled green beans he made.  He uses them for martinis, but I've been eating them straight out of the jar.

  1. We got the bicolor corn as a substitute item in our FCF box. Couldn't tell the difference but they were WONDERFUL. Best corn we've had in years.

  2. The boxes FCF uses in Seattle are designed to be reused over and over. You aren't supposed to 'recycle' them or throw them away; you are supposed to give them to FCF for reuse. (They are covered in wax to make them more durable.) You just bring back the empty box to exchange it for the full boc the next time you pick up your food. Or you take the food out of the box at the pick up site, and carry it home in a canvas grocery bag. -M

  3. You are supposed to return the box when you pick up your next box! They ship them back and refill them!

  4. What Anon said. I always bring my FCF boxes back when I pick up my veggies.
