Time for warm comfort meals

Had our first salad straight out of the garden - a couple of handfuls of baby spinach, mixed greens, butter lettuce - with a bunch of fresh chives chopped in, and tossed in this *super simple* vinaigrette which is perfect every time ("BOUCHON'S HOUSE VINAIGRETTE - RECIPE INCLUDED).

Because of the business, we have the advantage of being able to order a fair amount of food direct from suppliers, and generally their products use far less packaging than what's sold in retail stores. It's crazy how much cardboard and plastic surrounds every product you buy, and this is a consideration from a sustainability perspective. One of the best ways to avoid packaging is by shopping in bulk.

The cold weather veg is going in the ground TODAY!!! The forecast is for a week of daily highs over 5 degrees, and evening temps above freezing, so we should be safe - for now we are adding radishes, a variety of lettuces, and carrots! Other cool weather veg which you can safely add over the next few weeks include spinach, onions and garlic, cauliflower and peas.
