💚💚FARMSTAND FRIDGE IS FULL💚💚
I really can’t remember a better lettuce crop here on the Farmlet!
I’ve been growing lettuce for so many years, first for family and friends and then for Cafe Croissant when I owned it. I’d bring a big tubs of beautiful lettuce during the season and we use it in our salads and for sandwiches. That was a long time ago, and I do remember they being really gorgeous heads of lettuce.
Now I’ve been growing them for the FarmStand fridge for the last 10 years. As many of you can testify, it’s been pretty darn good lettuce. But this year it’s over the top! I’ve got some new varieties and they’re performing so well in this warmer, drier spring that we’re having. Really fantastic!
I’ve been cramming the Farmlet fridge with lettuce and kale all week and it was empty again today. Not anymore! I just put in the six heads of lettuce that you see in the photographs below. Each one is its own work of art! And last, but not least is the Dazzling Blue kale, amazing color, texture, and flavor.
💚and last but not least- ARTICHOKES! They are in there, too
