Nick and I (and really mostly me in that equation) have a weekly CSA (community-sustained agriculture) service we can buy from and have delivered — The Produce Box. I totally forgot to login before 9pm tonight and pick out which Produce Box I wanted for this upcoming week. This girl certainly lucked out, however! Check out this week’s goodies:
Box A (Double share of sweet potatoes)
Lots of Sweet Potatoes
1/2 # Salted “ready to eat”peanuts
Tomatoes grape or cherry
Assorted apples (6-8 depending on size)
Cucumbers 4-5 (depending on size)
SO excited. Those are probably my most favorite NC produce items! (Although I’d certainly take big tomatoes, too.) I case you were wondering, here are the other offerings I could have picked from:
