This Week's Share--More of the Same

This week's share is looking just like last week's with the exception of a "weed" that I am offering up--purslane. Purslane in actually packed with important nutrients and is one of the only vegetable sources of Omega-3. Click here to read more about purslane (or verdolaga as it is referred to in Mexico). Its slightly sour taste is a nice addition to salads that contain sweeter vegetables like tomatoes and cucumbers. Click here for a salad recipe.

This Week's Share:

Carrots
Sweet Peppers
