Happy Summer (summer doesn’t end till September 22nd 😊)!
CSA weather report…warm and pleasant
FYI – The Veg List email can
only handle up to 7 Veg Sheet attachments, otherwise it’s too big to be sent.
So, if anyone wants/needs the Lettuce one, let me know and I’ll email it to you
separately (I figured that was the one least needed this week 😊).
Important…if you send anyone to the CSA to
pick up food for you, please tell them to BRING BAGS!
This email includes…
- What you need to know
- Food safety and
COVID-19…
- Emergency situations at
the CSA (hurricanes/electronic communication glitches/medical emergencies,
etc.)
- What you actually got
last week
- And now, for something
completely different…
*Anything in any of our CSA 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 physician(s) 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)…
Most immediate helpful hints…
- Bring at least TWO bags to the CSA EVERY WEEK
for wet and dry food items (and never the twain should meet)
- When packing up your CSA food, start at the left side
of the long table and work your way to the right and out the garden door.
Why? We set out the food to be packed in that order so the heaviest food
items will be on the bottom of your bag, and your food won’t get squished
(another way to make your food go bad faster), and if you separate the wet
from the dry foods you’re doing pretty good on having your food last
longer! 😊
- When you get your food home, if it’s in a plastic bag
take it OUT of the plastic bag and store elsewhere…even if it’s in another
plastic bag (the original bag will be too wet and your food won’t be happy
there for long)
- Plan on using your food in the order of how long it
will reasonably stay fresh (if stored properly). Any questions regarding
what this would be…ask. 😊
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
Place – Sky Room Café 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 CSA 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 (like the story of the 3 bears…not too much, not too
little, but just right 😊)! 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.
CSA words to live by…when trying any new food 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 Curly Cress/Peppercress) and detoxing…
http://www.nourishingmeals.com/2012/03/detox-with-spring-greens.html
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 #15
September 8, 2022
- Squash, Winter: Acorn – 1 pc.
- Squash, Summer – check the CSA Wall Chart
- Eggplant – check CSA Wall Chart
- Beans, Snap: Green – 1 bag
- Peppers, Sweet: Shishito*/Okra** – 1 bag (not sure if
this is a mixed bag or a choice of one or the other…check the CSA Wall
Chart)
- Lettuce – 1 head
- Tomatoes, Mini – 1 pt.
Total Items: 7
Herb Share – September 1A
Parsley: Italian Flat Leaf AND Sage
Flowers – Week #8 (IF we get them…maybe yes, maybe no)
*Shishito Peppers are curious critters…approximately 1 out
of every 10 will be HOT. So, you may get none, or some. If you want to test
first before cooking, cut the Pepper and swipe a piece on your lip (or on your
tongue) to see if you feel any heat.
**Recipe for people who don’t like Okra (and it’s really
easy)…

She uses Cayenne Powder if you like a little heat…
https://www.eatingbirdfood.com/oven-roasted-okra/
2.Food safety and COVID-19…
Watch writer J. Kenji Lopez-Alt (son of a Harvard University
geneticist and immunologist, grandson of a chemist, and author of Food Lab:
Better Home Cooking Through Science), talk about COVID-19 and food safety…
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qkvw9lZ3v3I
And read in more detail here…
After keeping the CSA going thru 2020 and 2021 (with
everyone staying healthy using the simple practices of wearing face coverings,
hand washing, and social distancing), this is where we are now at this moment
in time…
- Face coverings are optional
- Hand washing upon entering the theater is STRONGLY
recommended (it’s always a good idea in preventing COVID as well as the
flu and colds)
Why COVID HATES soap (works better than hand sanitizer or
gloves), and we’re talking plain soap, NOT antibacterial soap (the use of which
causes antibiotic resistance which could kill us all ☹)…
https://healthmatters.nyp.org/how-does-handwashing-with-soap-kill-the-coronavirus/
- We will try and keep the CSA area relatively uncrowded
- Enter near the Box Office entrance, and exit thru the
door that leads out to the Cinema garden and upper parking lot stairs
3.Emergency situations at the CSA (hurricanes/electronic
communication glitches/medical emergencies, etc.)
- It’s hurricane season till November 30th
(our CSA’s last day is December 8th)! Farmers are more hardcore
than postal workers so your food will be at the CSA between 3:30pm and
7:30pm on Thursdays, pretty much no matter what. Hurricane Sandy didn’t
stop our CSA. We were at the Unitarian Fellowship in Huntington, and there
was no power and there were tree limbs around the property BUT I checked
out the building to make sure there was no danger being in the building or
entering the property, and with flashlights brought by me, we had our CSA.
If there’s no emails…show up anyway. If there’s some problem/issue with
the food arriving there should be a note on the door of the Cinema letting
you know what’s up (if we’re not already in there waiting for you). In a storm
situation please bring a flashlight/lantern as it could be helpful for you
and those of us at the CSA. Again…show up, and at 3:30pm and 5:30pm if
there were no emails please offer to work if you’re able and available. If
you feel it’s not safe/wise for you to venture out, know that any food
left at the end of the CSA will be picked up and donated to the gang at
Community Solidarity. They have NEVER missed a food distribution day even
in snow and ice storms (regardless of the weather…hungry people will still
be hungry if there’s no food to eat).
- Electronic communication is FAR from perfect. IF you
get no CSA emails or responses to your emails on any given week…come to
the CSA anyway. It could be a problem with my laptop, etc. Stuff happens.
- Anything else that might come up (these days…who
knows???)…no emails, etc., come anyway and will do our best to keep
everyone informed as best we can (look for notes on front door of Cinema
if nothing else). The CSA has always happened every week during our 20+
seasons…(lifted from the postal worker motto) - Neither snow nor rain nor
heat nor gloom stays these farmers & CSA crew from the swift
completion of their appointed rounds…to get you your CSA Shares! 😊
- If there’s an emergency
situation in progress, consider offering to help out at the CSA whether
you’re asked to or not.
4.What you actually got last week
Week #14
September 1, 2022
- Cantaloupe – 1 pc. - $5.00
- Cucumbers – 2 pc. – (see below - totaled with Summer
Squash + Sweet Peppers)
- Squash, Summer: Costata Romanesco, Eight Ball, Gold,
Patty Pan, Yellow, Zucchini – 1 pc. – (see below – totaled with Cucumbers
+ Sweet Peppers)
- Peppers, Sweet: Purple – 2 pc. - $2.00 (includes price
of Cucumbers + Summer Squash)
- Eggplant – 1 pc. - $2.50
- Lettuce: Loose Leaf, Red – 1 head - $4.00
- Basil – 1 bunch - $5.00
- Tomatoes: Beefsteak, Red and other Red ones – up to 2
lbs. - $6.25
Total Items: 8
Total Amount: $25.00
We pay $20 per week for our CSA share…some weeks we get a
bit more, some a bit less. This week, it was $5.00 over $20.00. Doesn’t sound
like a whole lot, but it adds up over the course of the CSA season (so far the
total is up to $26.50 over what we paid). We seem to always get at least one
CSA share’s worth of food every year that we didn’t pay for (which we got 😊)…some
years two, and last year it was almost four weeks worth extra so we’re talking
almost $80 worth of food we got gratis…it’s all good! 😊
5.And now, for
something completely different…
Clearly, fans of fruit! 😊

Bitter Melon Sampling Dinner
Thai USA
273 NY Ave
Huntington
To attend please RSVP your name (and number of people in
your party) by either replying to this email or leaving a voice message at
631-421-4864 (24/7 land line…do not text). Please let us know by Monday,
September 12th, as the restaurant requested a week’s notice to
prepare.
How will this work? Everyone will order and pay for their
own entrees, etc., and you’ll also be provided with a gratis small sampling of
three dishes…
- Bitter Melon sautéed
with scrambled Egg – very traditional Thai/Chinese preparation and easy to
make
- Bitter Melon sautéed
without scrambled Egg – vegan – easy to make
- Bitter Melon stuffed
with ground Chicken in a broth – also fairly easy to whip up
Bitter Melon is not on the menu at Thai USA, but if you ask
if they have it and they do, they will make you a side dish of the sautéed
Bitter Melon with or without the Egg (less bitter with most any protein except
Tofu/Tempeh…not enough fat in Soy to make a difference). The soup is something
made occasionally for Thai USA’s staff family dinners and we’re lucky enough
for them to make it for us 😊.
I don’t know about you, but I learn to be a better cook by
being a more adventurous eater. So, I’ll eat Bitter Melon out and about
wherever I can find it, to get a better understanding of how other
cultures/chefs prepare it, ideas of how to make it, and various ways of what it
can taste like.
We did this for the first time a few years ago and everyone
who came enjoyed the food and had a good time.

Green Thumb Farm CSA Pumpkin Picking Farm Tour
Green Thumb Farm
829 Montauk Hwy.
Water Mill
FREE
RSVP (watch for details closer to this event)
Pick your tour time, and let’s go! 😊This
is one of the two times we CSA Members get invited to tour our farm and get to
take something home to eat…for FREE! 😊 This is a tractor
pulled wagon farm tour for CSA members and immediate family only! Rain or shine
(unless we’re talking torrential rain/thunder storms).
There will be a 10% discount to all CSA Members who take the
tour on all purchases made at the Green Thumb Farm farm stand after your tour.
Sweet! 😊
Dress appropriately for walking on dirt roads and in the
fields (sandals/high heels not recommended), and for being in the sun during
peak sun exposure hours (sunglasses/hat/sunscreen, etc.). I’ve never gotten
ticks on one of these tours yet, but I’d do a thorough tick check once you got
back home (they have a roving band of marauding Guinea Hens that take care of
eating most of them I believe 😊).
Planning on going to lunch after the last tour at Barrow
Food House in Riverhead (farm-to-table and reasonably priced for the area), and
everyone’s invited (they have indoor and outdoor dining options).

If you’ve never gone, do yourself a favor and check this
out. A great event for the whole family. If you’ve gone before, you know Steve
is the biggest cornball on the planet 😊 but he’s BRILLIANT when
it comes to knowing his foraged foods. A goal I have is to take at least four
of his tours in one year for each of the seasons. If I get to one this year
I’ll be thrilled. 😊 And if you’re
going…read all his directions and follow all his recommendations! You’ll be
glad you did. 😊
