New Pay Online Option for our CSA

March 17, 2015 By Persephone

Rebecca and Louisa-2015
We’re ready for a plentiful season.

It’s time to sign up for the 2015 CSA!

We have been working on creating an online store where folks can sign up for our CSA this season. It’s an online “Square Store” where you can pay with a credit card for either your deposit or the full amount. Please choose the correct pickup location – Indianola or Bainbridge and split or full share. If you use our Square store to sign up and pay it’s important to leave your name, address, phone and email in the “Note to seller” box on the basket page. Don’t worry it’s easy! Sign up online.

Of course, you can still mail us a check! Download the CSA brochure and do it the old fashioned way.

Need details about our CSA? It’s all on Our CSA page.

Tender Garlic Scapes

June 15, 2014 By Persephone

Our scape crow!
Our scape crow!

Week two of the CSA shares included a curly bunch of garlic scapes. They were tender and had a mild garlic flavor. Tasty!

What’s a scape? Some plants in the allium family (garlic, onions, shallots, leeks, and friends) begin reproduction by growing a long round stalk with a spire-shaped point called a scape. Eventually, a flower will emerge from the scape’s tip, from which the plant sends its seeds.

Store garlic scapes in an airtight container or upright in water and use fresh; or freeze. Cook them any way you would asparagus or try…

  • blending them into hummus
  • mashing into guacamole
  • chopping into a salad
  • adding to pesto
  • pureed with potatoes
  • topping pasta dishes
