Organic Orange Carrots from Oak Valley Organics

Sweet, tender and fresh. Carrots are a staple this time of year, a crucial part of any soup, a great addition to roasts or even as a fresh snack with some of our Simply Crampton's French Onion dip. 

Spray-Free Mint bunches from Twin River Gardens

Add Mint to pesto for a bit of zest. Also fresh salads can always be improved with some mint. Throw a few leaves in your water for an additional health boost. Or make Mojitos! 

 

Spray-Free Thyme from Twin River Gardens

Thyme pairs well with lemon and is a great addition to any roast or steaks. Hang your bunch upside down in a cool dry place and have dried thyme all winter.   

Spray-Free Beefsteak Tomatoes from Greenland Gardens

Some of the best tomatoes in Manitoba! Coming from Ste.Anne. So juicy and plump and perfect for BLTs or on burgers. 

Spray-Free Green Kale from Jonathan Farms

Kale is a hearty green of the Brassica family that still thrives this time of year. 

Unlike other vegetables that are grown in Manitoba, Kale can grow all year here. If you're a beginner gardener it is a great place to start (just watch out for aphids)

Spray-Free Cabbage from Jonathan Farms 

Spray-Free Kabocha or Butternut squash from Jonathan Farms

Winter squash is buttery and creamy. All winter squashes can be substituted for each other. Puree in soup and add curry for a warm and creamy meal. 

Spray-Free Shallots from Wild Earth Farms

Wild Earth Farms is based out of Bird's Hill, Manitoba. They have been apart of CSA programs for many years and provide beautiful spray-free produce. Shallots have a delicate and sweet flavour with a hint of sharpness, while onions bring a more intense heat.

ENJOY WEEK 2! Happy cooking!
