Did I know what daikon was the first time I saw it? I don’t remember. Probably not, and I realize now that it is the least recognizable root we offer, often confused with parsnips!

We grow a few lesser known greens in the winter: Mache, Claytonia, and Minutina. They aren’t grown widely because all three thrive in cooler temperatures.

Fennel is one of the nicest vegetables to grow. It’s just difficult enough that a good crop feels like an accomplishment. The crisp texture, cool anise flavor, and dense layers give it unmatched culinary value. In season: Fall and spring. How we pick it: When harvested fresh from the field we cut and offer the...

I crave a bit of sour pickles in the winter, whether it be kimchi, pickled daikon or some gingered carrots. Since we have a bit of a carrot theme going on this week, I thought I’d share my method for making pickled, or fermented, carrots. Even though carrots will last all winter long in cold storage,...
