Local Apples - Spray Free

Apples are from Riverbend Orchards. All apples should be stored in a cool, humid place. In order to keep apples at their peak, avoid storing them in close proximity to strongly flavored foods such as onions.
Cabbage - Spray Free

Cabbage is from Wild Earth Farms. You can put the cabbage in a plastic bag to help retain moisture but it isn't totally necessary. If you use only a partial head, make sure to tightly wrap the remainder and put into the fridge.
Try this fried cabbage with bacon, onion and garlic. Of course, substitute the bacon out to keep it vegetarian.
Celery Root - Spray Free

Kohlrabi - Spray Free
Kohlrabi is from Wild Earth Farms. Peel the thick skin off before eating it. You can eat it raw, in fact, eating it raw is one of our favourite ways because it’s so crunchy and juicy with less of a spice than a radish! These pair really nicely with radish in a salad or slaw. You can also roast it or boil it - treat it like a potato but with a longer cooking time. You can also cut it into sticks and snack on it like carrots.
If you don't want to eat this raw try roasting it with salt, pepper and oil for the perfect veggie side dish.
Butterkin Squash - Spray Free
Butterkin Squash is from John Abrams Farms. is the love child between a butternut squash and a pumpkin. It kept the light orange skin of the butternut squash but the shape of a pumpkin. The flesh is the best of both worlds – deep orange, smooth and sweet. Butterkin Squash makes a delicious soup, can be roasted and some people use it for pie.
This is a beautiful fall soup to make with the perfect colouring to brighten up your day.
Red Potatoes - Spray Free

Potatoes are from Wild Earth Farms. They can be kept in a pantry, basement or any cool, dry and dark place. These bigger potatoes can be used for baked stuffed potatoes. These are great for steak fries, hash browns, shoestring potatoes, French fries, potato skins, chips, and Hasselback potatoes. Kennebec potatoes also maintain their shape when cooked, perfect for potato salads, curries, soups, and stews.
