Hope everyone is having a great week!  This week we have some great items coming including mizuna from Nalo Farms and cherry tomatoes coming from Ho Farms.  See you soon!

Cherry Tomatoes – Ho Farms

Choy Sum – Greens Growers

Aquaponic Lettuce – Mari’s Garden

Cosmic Carrots – Kahumana Farms

Mizuna – Nalo Farms

Mixed Citrus – Kamaaina Pland & Land

Swiss Chard – Ho Farms

 

What to do with the Mizuna??  Mizuna can be steamed, boiled, stir-fried or used to complement other greens mixed together for a salad. When cooked it shrinks to about half its size so it takes a large amount to make a cooked vegetable dish containing only mizuna.  Combine your mizuna with your choy sum for Stir Fried Choy Sum & Mizuna!

Swiss Chard with Carrots & Onions – Super Tasty & Super Easy!!

Swiss Chard with Tomaotes, Feta and Pine Nuts –  Vitamin-packed swiss chard is always a great choice for a healthy meal. It’s full of everything from vitamins C, K and A to potassium and dietary fiber. And it’s delicious to boot!

Hey gang, this week’s bag is brought to you by the fruit papaya and the carrots!  There is also ahi coming in the bag too for those who ordered!  Enjoy!
