Green Thumb Farm Huntington CSA: Huntington CSA **2023 Season** Thursday, Aug. 24, 2023 Week #12

Happy Summer!

CSA weather report…cool and breezy

Don’t leave your CSA Share in your car - over 40 degrees and it’s not happy (and inside your car with closed windows it’s probably hotter than you’d think… and it is – check this out…

https://abc7news.com/how-hot-can-it-get-inside-a-car-baby-in-gets/2266627/#:~:text=Here's%20a%20look%20at%20just%20how%20hot%20it%20can%20get%3A&text=When%20it's%2080%20degrees%20outside,and%20119%20after%2030%20minutes )

Important…if you ever 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…
Win an all-expense paid trip to Farm Aid 2023!
How to get in touch with the CSA/suzanne and why you might want to
Still time to order Bulk Tomato Shares (and why you might want to 😊)
Emergency situations at the CSA (hurricanes/electronic communication glitches/medical emergencies, etc.)
Another contest!
World’s longest living people eat these 7 foods every day!
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. Not sure as to what that is? Just 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 sign-in 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 (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 (Community Solidarity…read more about them in the CSA Events email under Tuesdays) that’s waiting to pick it up and get on their way.

Veggie info sheets are added as needed. This is the link to the: Veggie Info Sheets. Print them out, put them 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… 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! 😊 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 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!

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…

https://www.seriouseats.com/2020/03/food-safety-and-coronavirus-a-comprehensive-guide.html#covid-on-food

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.Win an all-expense paid trip to Farm Aid 2023!

You can win a trip to Farm Aid by donating before September 9th here (and in the small print I see you can enter without donating…but I’m sure the folks at Farm Aid would appreciate it if you did 😊)…

https://fandiem.com/sweeps/win-a-front-and-center-vip-experience-at-farm-aid-2023

See the CSA Events email for more info about this event and the organization, Farm Aid, under the date, which is Saturday, September 23^rd.

4.How to get in touch with the CSA/suzanne (and why you might want to )…

This is information you might not care about at all…until you do, So, for the one time you might need this, please keep this contact info in a place where you’d find it if you wanted it.

Why might you want to get in touch with suzanne and/or the CSA?

You’re running late getting to the CSA and can’t get there by 7:30pm (you have the option of getting your CSA Share packed up for you and picking it up before the Box Office closes which changes from week to week depending on the movies being shown, but would usually be at least 9pm)
You can’t get to the CSA at all and would like it if someone could hold your food till Friday, or Monday if you’re going away for the weekend (if you know in advance, don’t wait till the last minute as the more time we have, the better chance we’ll be able to find someone to help out)
You’re scheduled to work at the CSA and need to cancel
Some other reason I’m not coming up with at the moment 😊

Options for getting in touch (the short story is that I’m not available 24/7, nor am I plugged in to any electronic communication thingy 24/7, and so these are the parameters)…

Email - gtcsahuntington@gmail.com (can email me 24/7 HOWEVER, will not see ANY emails on Thursdays from noon to 11pm)
Phone

631-421-4864 – my home landline (can call 24/7 and only leave voice messages, BUT will not hear ANY messages or respond on Thursdays from noon till Friday afternoon)
631-423-7611 xt. 0 – Cinema Arts Centre Box Office and DO NOT leave messages with the Box Office as we may not get these messages in a timely manner or at all, and ask to (or insist if you need to) speak to someone at the CSA They will transfer the call to the Café and someone from the Café will get someone from the CSA (can ONLY call this number for the CSA on Thursdays from 3:30pm to 8pm)

5.Still time to order Bulk Tomato Shares!

Here’s your chance to enjoy CSA Tomatoes all winter long! 😊

Why would you want all these Tomatoes?

Why not? The CDC has just named them the world’s healthiest fruit (in case you didn’t know…botanically speaking, Tomatoes are a fruit and it was only due to an act of the US Supreme Court in 1893 that they became known as a vegetable)…

https://www.delish.com/food-news/a44869072/tomatoes-healthiest-fruit/

If you think 20 lbs. is too much to deal with but would consider 10 lbs., let me know by email, voice message or at the CSA, and will see if there’s someone else who wants to split a box with you.

To get in while the going is good, the remaining delivery dates are August 31^st, September 7^th and September 14th so email, or let suzanne know at the CSA this week, when you’d like the Tomatoes delivered, and bring a check made out to Halseys Green Thumb OR cash, in the amount of $45 per box of Tomatoes.

What’s the easiest thing to do with 20 lbs. of Tomatoes? Use the easy peasy freezy method and freeze them whole (it’s so easy, someone with NO cooking skills/ability can do this).

Here’s how…(suggestion – freeze in amounts you’d use for one recipe so you don’t have to hack at a larger amount with an ice pick, etc. 😊)…

https://wholefully.com/how-to-freeze-tomatoes/

Why would you want 20 lbs. of certified organic in-season Tomatoes? Because the ones we buy when they’re not in season are AWFUL and tasteless, and are picked when they’re partly green and gassed to make them look red! And if they’re not organic…fuggedaboutit! Just take a gander at all the toxic chemicals used in the average non-organic Tomato…

https://whatsonmyfood.org/food.jsp?food=TO

While it’s true you can’t use frozen Tomatoes on a sandwich, you can use them all winter long to make Soups, Sauces, and add to any cooked dish you like.

However, you could use them on Sandwiches and Salads if you dried them. More labor intensive but SO worth the effort (one of our CSA members made them and had some in Olive Oil for me to try, and they were the best “sun” dried Tomatoes I’d ever had…they used a dehydrator).

How to dry Tomatoes using the sun, your oven, or a dehydrator…

Sun…

https://www.thespruceeats.com/homemade-sun-dried-tomatoes-1808065

Oven…

https://www.thespruceeats.com/oven-sun-dried-tomatoes-4064025

Dehydrator…

https://www.thespruceeats.com/dehydrated-tomatoes-recipe-1809681

And then of course, there’s the more traditional option of canning of Tomatoes. When canning Tomatoes…FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS TO THE LETTER! If you don’t, you run the possibility of giving yourself botulism and getting VERY sick. Canning is NOT the time to improvise, rush, or cut corners (but a good time to let your inner clean freak fly 😊)…

https://www.seriouseats.com/how-to-heat-pressure-steam-can-tomatoes-preserve

6.Emergency situations at the CSA (hurricanes/electronic communication glitches/medical emergencies, etc.)

It’s hurricane season till November 30^th (our CSA’s last day is December 14^th)! 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’ve been asked to or not.

7.Another Contest!

Another opportunity to win a home freeze dryer if you enter by Thursday, August 31^st…

8.World’s longest living people eat these 7 foods every day!

Our CSA supplies us with #2 on the list every week (a daily salad is on the list of things to eat)…

https://www.delishknowledge.com/the-worlds-longest-living-people-eat-these-7-foods-every-day/

And over the years we’ve gotten some of #1 too (Black Beans, Soy Beans, Lima Beans, Black Eyed Peas)

9.What you actually got last week

Week #11

August 17, 2023

Cucumbers, Slicing – 1 - $.50
Squash, Summer: Costata Romanesco, Eight Ball, Zucchini OR Bitter Melon: South Asian – 3 Squash OR 1 Bitter Melon - $1.50
Eggplant: Italian, White – 1 - $1.50
Pepper, Sweet: Green – 1 - $.50
Scallions – 1 bunch - $5.50
Sorrel – 1 bunch - $4.50
Lettuce: Loose Leaf, Green – 1 head - $4.25
Tomatoes: Beefsteak (and some also have Paste) – 1 bag (1 ½ lbs.) - $6.00

Total Items: 8

Total Amount: $24.25

We pay our farm $22 per week for our CSA share…some weeks we get a bit more, some a bit less. This week, it was $2.25 over $22.00 (my compulsive self is keeping track of all this 😊). Doesn’t sound like a whole lot whether it’s over or under, but it adds up over the course of the CSA season (at the moment it’s a total of $21.25 more food than 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…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! 😊

10.And now, for something completely different…

File under…play with your food 😊.

This is your last chance to visit our CSA farm (Green Thumb Farm) for this year! It’s a tour on a tractor pulled wagon led by some of our farmers (probably Ray & Jesse), Pumpkin picking (not necessarily Pumpkins from our farm…it’s more for the kids and decorating than for culinary purposed BUT these can be eaten), and a 10% discount on everything purchased at the farm stand! This event is rain or shine (barring torrential downpours when it would be cancelled). This event is for CSA members and immediate family only (if you’re sharing a CSA Share with someone, usually one person will go in June and the other in October…and if a share partner, reserve in the name of the CSA member).
