Happy Autumn!
CSA weather report…chilly and WINDY (20 to 30mph with gusts
up to 50mpg) *if there are power outages…bring a flashlight…the CSA will still
be taking place!
The CSA will NOT be in the Sky Room Café this week but
will be in the lobby area located near the upper parking lot staircase. From
the upper parking lot, go down the stairs and at the bottom make a left turn
down a pathway ad keep going till you get to the entrance of the building and
you should see the CSA thru the glass sliding doors. The Sky Room Café will be
closing around 4pm in case you have any plans on eating there (though they will
have popcorn and snacky things available at the concession stand near the Box
Office).
By this time you probably noticed we didn’t get Escarole
last week. What we thought was Escarole (a red variety) turned out to be a
Red Leaf Lettuce. Turns out there was a RARE lack of communication at the farm,
and therefore with the CSA. What we got was switched up last minute after the
list for us was made, and since the person at the farm who made the list didn’t
know, either did we until I sent them a photo and finally got confirmation as
to what it was. Sometimes what I email you will be different from what comes in
from the farm but at that point, we know what the change was. This was a first
in 20+ years.
Important…if you call the Box Office to have a
bag packed for a late CSA pickup (by 10pm), do NOT leave messages at the Box
Office and expect the CSA to get them. It doesn’t always happen (it didn’t last
week…not good). You MUST speak directly to someone from the CSA. The call can
easily be transferred to the Sky Room Café where someone from the CSA can take
the phone call (or if the CSA is outside or in another location, they can still
get a CSA member to come to the Box Office to take the call).
Also important…if you send anyone to the CSA to
pick up food, please tell them to BRING BAGS!
It’s
time to weigh our CSA food!
- Please be aware that it may
take a little more time for you to collect your CSA share when weighing is
part of the experience, so plan accordingly.
- Check the CSA Wall Chart that
our farmer brings in every week before taking any food so you know what
you’re taking and how much to take…assume nothing and please feel free to
ask questions!
- Bring your reading glasses, or
ask someone to help if you can’t see the numbers on the scale clearly.
- PLEASE DO
NOT GO OVER THE AMOUNT STATED on the Wall Chart.
Please
err on the under side of the weight posted…NEVER over. It may not seem like
much to you, but we have 35 CSA members this week, and if every person is over
by ONE OUNCE (for crying out loud! It’s only an ounce!!!) …that means we’ll be
short over 2 POUNDS of produce and 1 or 2 CSA members (and one of them could be
you) won’t get the food they paid for.
- IF you are asked to weigh more
than one food item at the same time (and you probably will at some point
in the CSA season)…please follow the directions given to you, and weigh in
the order you are asked (you might not think there’s any good reason to be
doing this but our farmer does, and that should be enough of a reason
right there but if you want a further explanation – ask someone working at
the CSA or contact suzanne…there is always a method to the madness)
This email includes…
- What you need to know
- It’s that time of year
to start thinking about voting (but it’s not what you think 😊 )
- Turkeys anyone?
- Click activism – you
don’t have to do much, or spend any money, to help make a positive change
in the world
- What you actually got
last week
- Cilantro and heavy metal
- Prizes!
- Get it while you can…
- And now, for something
completely different
😊
Anything in these emails not directly related to the
functioning of the CSA feel free to take or leave at your discretion, and
anything related to health issues always consult with your physicians before
taking any action.
1.What you need to know (will be either new info to
first time CSA members, or reminders/old hat to returning CSA members)…
Before you leave the house…BRING BAGS
to pack up your food (CSA members are responsible for packing up their own
shares) – canvas/plastic/paper…bring whatever suits your fancy. The CSA does
NOT provide bags for CSA members.
Time – 3:30pm to 7:30pm
IF you need to pick up later than 7:30pm, call the Cinema
Arts Center Box Office between 3pm to 7:30pm at 631-423-7610 xt 0 and ask to
speak to someone from the CSA. We can pack a bag for you and leave it at the
Box Office but it MUST be picked up before the Box Office closes (call the Box
Office to check the time…lately it’s been 9:30pm). If not, it won’t be there on
Friday. And do not leave a message at the Box Office…YOU
MUST SPEAK TO SOMEONE FROM THE CSA (otherwise the CSA will not be
responsible if your food doesn’t get packed and left for you).
Place РSky Room Caf̩ in the Cinema Arts
Centre at 423 Park Ave, Huntington
Parking – park in the all the way around at
the back of the building by the day care center (you’ll see a fenced in
playground area with a sandbox)
When you arrive at the CSA –
- Check in at the desk with our friendly CSA worker
- Read the Wall Chart that tells us every week what we’re
getting, how much we’re getting, and what the farm charged us for it…some
weeks it’s take one of everything but SOME WEEKS IT’S NOT!!! So you have
to make sure you read the Wall Chart every week, and not assume anything.
You can also ask your fellow CSA members that are working that day what
the story is for the day (they should have name tags on).
Before you leave the CSA – Make sure you have
everything on the list! If you get to talking with people, have kids with you,
etc., it can be easy to be distracted and if you get home and find out you
don’t have everything that was on the list, you’re out of luck because at
7:31pm the food is donated to a local food organization that’s waiting to pick
it up and get on their way.
Veggie info sheets added as needed. This is the link to the: Veggie Info Sheets. Print out, put in a notebook and you end up with a cookbook at the end of the CSA season. Also there are good tips on storage, prep, and nutrition.
The list…this is a general list and you’ll be sent another
email within the next week with the detailed list after I get it (which isn’t
till the day of the CSA…the list is subject to change without notice because
farming is like that! J .
However, most of the time it’s accurate and if it’s not…usually only one food
item will be changed)…
CSA words to live by…when trying any new food that
you’ve never eaten before…START SLOW! Read up about it (make sure
it doesn’t interfere with any medications you might be taking or any health
conditions you might have), see what traditional/conventional ways it’s
prepared (cultures that have been eating certain foods for many years basically
have a good idea what they’re doing and we can learn from that), try a small
portion, see how your body/digestive system reacts, and proceed from there.
Then try preparing in different ways and see what you come up with, and feel
free to ask for suggestion/info/recommendations!
Paraphrased wise words by a nutritionist that I read and
don’t remember where I read it or who said it, BUT it’s pretty smart info
regarding eating seasonally in our part of the globe…
Spring… is all about detoxing (what we get
from the CSA at this time is a lot of green things that are really good to help
clean us out from whatever we accumulated during the winter)
Interesting piece about spring greens (out of the 14 listed,
we get 12 of them with our CSA…watercress nutritionally and botanically similar
to Peppercress) and detoxing…
Summer is all about being hydrated (the
popular summer foods are all full of water…Tomatoes, Lettuces, Summer Squashes,
etc.)
Fall/winter is all about storing energy (we
get all the dense vegetables…Sweet Potatoes, Winter Squashes, etc…. that are
energy powerhouses to fuel us through the winter) to get you through the winter
to make it to…Spring!
Week #19
October 17, 2019
- Squash, Winter* – ? – read CSA Wall Chart for details
- Pak Choi (see Bok Choi info)** – 1 bunch
- Beans, Snap*** – ? - read CSA Wall Chart for details
- Tomatoes, Mini**** – 1 pt.
- Lettuce – 1 head
- Peppers, Sweet***** - ? – read CSA Wall Chart for
details
Total Items: 6
*Winter Squash are one of the world’s healthiest foods (good
info and recipes)!
*Pak Choi (this is about Bok Choi…very similar so info will
be the same) is one of the world’s healthiest foods (good info and recipes)!
***Snap Beans (another name for Green Beans and even though
this week they’re Yellow, same basic info) are one of the world’s healthiest
foods (good info and recipes)!
****Tomatoes are one of the world’s healthiest foods (good
info and recipes)!
*****Sweet Peppers (Bell or otherwise) are one of the
world’s healthiest foods (good info and recipes)!

2.It’s that time of year to start thinking about voting
(but it’s not what you think 😊 )
It’s the time of year to vote for the Best of Long Island
sponsored by The Bethpage Federal Credit Union, and posted in The Long Island
Press.
I missed the nominating time period (have to look into that
for next year) so unfortunately, our farm isn’t nominated BUT am voting for
Garden of Eve for best Farm Stand in lieu of that option since it’s certified
organic for the longest period of time of the other ones listed (and most
listed are not organic)…
AND voted for Cinema Arts Centre for best Movie Theater (as
if I had a choice 😊 ).
You can vote once a day for each category from now till
December 15th. And let me know if there’s anyone YOU feel strongly
about that’s nominated (and why) and would be glad to share.
3.Turkeys anyone?
Thanksgiving isn’t so far away, and now is the time to make
plans if you’d like a local/certified organic/heritage breed Turkey (sorry, but
at the moment, seems like you can’t get all three in one bird). If you want a
bird from 20 to 30 lbs., unless you’re getting a heritage breed bird, I’d
recommend getting two 10 to 15 lb. ones (you can ask me why in person…you might
not want to eat that big bird afterwards). Here are a few options…
A.Browder’s Birds – certified organic
You can reserve online with a $50 deposit fee and the birds
must be picked up at their farm in Mattituck from Monday, November 25th,
to Wednesday, November 27th
B.Makinajian Poultry Farm & Country Store – free range,
no antibiotics, no hormones
Will start taking orders after November 1st. Size
ranges from 10 to 30 lbs. Birds must be picked up at their farm in Huntington
from Monday, November 25th, to Wednesday, November 27th
between 9am to 6pm.
Give a call – 631-368-9320
Or stop by – 276 Cuba Hill Rd. (at intersection of Little
Plains Rd.), Huntington
Tell them suzanne sent you 😊 !
C.Heritage Foods – humanely raised, pasture raised, heritage
breeds, antibiotic free, not artificially inseminated
This Brooklyn based company has Turkeys available from Good
Shephard Poultry Ranch (Kansas) delivered fresh to your home (so the birds
aren’t local but the company is).
4.Click activism – you don’t have to do much, or spend any
money, to help make a positive change in the world
Americans
are eating more meat than ever, and US meat workers already suffer some of the
highest rates of occupational injury and illness. Pretty much every other day a
meat worker somewhere is sent to the hospital or loses a body part! Demand that
the Trump administration stop allowing meat plants to increase line speeds that
threaten worker safety…
If
you want to read more about this situation…
Another
thing to consider if you do eat meat is to know where your meat comes from, buy
from a local butcher, and/or buy pasture raised/grass-fed/certified organic
meat.
5.What you actually got last week
Week #18
October 10, 2019
- Beets: Chiogga, Red, White* – 1 bunch – $4.25
- Arugula – 1 bunch - $3.50
- Beans, Snap: Romano** – ¾ lb. bag - $3.25
- Tomatoes*** – up to 2 lbs. – $6.25
- Lettuce: Leaf, Red – 1 head - $3.50
- Bitter Melon**** - 1 - $2.00
Total Items: 6
Total Amount: $22.75
(We pay $20 per week for our CSA share…some weeks we get a
bit more, and it adds up over the course of the season. This week it was $2.75,
and so far it’s a grand total of $31 which is more than one CSA share! We seem
to always get at least one CSA share’s worth of food every year that we didn’t
pay for…some years two, and some between one and two…it’s all good! 😊)
Herb Share – October 1A
Cilantro***** AND Oregano******
*Beets are one of the world’s healthiest foods (good info
and recipes)!
And so are Beet Greens (if we get them attached to the
Beets)…
**Snap Beans (another name for Green Beans and even though
this week they’re Yellow, same basic info) are one of the world’s healthiest
foods (good info and recipes)!
***Tomatoes are one of the world’s healthiest foods (good
info and recipes)!
****Bitter Melon has no Veg Info Sheet but you were sent a
separate email with all the info (if you need it sent again…get in touch)
*****Cilantro is one of the world’s healthiest foods (good
info and recipes)!
******Oregano is one of the world’s healthiest foods (good
info and recipes)!
6.Cilantro and heavy metal
Not talking music, but the toxic heavy metals we get exposed
to, or are in our bodies (like silver fillings). We got Cilantro in our CSA
Herb Share last week, and I mentioned to a few people something I’ve been
talking about for years, and then I got this email the other day…
Cilantro can help remove toxic heavy metals from the body
(like mercury and lead) just by eating it!
7.Prizes!
Win a supply of Handsome Brook Farm Eggs, and a swag bag!
8.Get it while you can…
Climate change is going to be doing all sorts of challenging
things for eaters and those who grow/harvest food. Some foods might need to be
put in the category “get it while you can”. This might be one of them…
9.And now, for something completely different 😊
Watch young couple singing SEVEN HUNDRED chemicals used in
food…or skip it and just buy and eat certified organic food 😊
…please feel free to share…
Brought to you by the group, Only Organic…
