Organic Veg Box


This is my second week receiving my organic veg box. I love it. It is so exciting to see what is in it. Basically, it is vegetables from different farmers grown locally and delivered to my door each Thursday. Benji is always excited to see it because he gets loads of the tops from the carrots. Its always full of dirt too...as it is literally picked and then thrown into the box. I guess the longer the dirt is on the vegetables the better, as when they are washed by power washers from super markets, sometimes the good stuff gets washed off as well (according to our veg supplier). Last week I met the main supplier, who was very nice. His wife often posts yummy recipes on their website for us to try. Today, Jim delivered the box. Its nice trying out new recipes because each week something new is in the box. I am super excited to cook some yummy vegetable risotto tonight.
