Energy Audit

Just about forgot. I was reminded yesterday that PFI ( Practical Farmers of Iowa) and The Cornucopia are doing a field day June 5. We had a energy evaluation done and made some small adjustments to our coolers. Mid American is going to come and present on Energy.

The first Sioux Center Subscription 2010 is delivered!

Greetings,

After a long snowy winter we are eagerly looking forward to
bringing you the first tastes of spring. We will be
delivering the first two shares in the evening on May 12 &
19. Starting on May 26, we will be at the Sioux Center
Farmer's Market on Wednesday mornings from 8 - noon where
you may pick up your share during that time. The market
will be located in the parking lot of the Centre Mall.

Get out your salad spinner as this week you may look forward
to the following items in your share.....

Spinach
Leaf Lettuce
Radish
Leek - a wonderful mild substitute for onions in soups and
egg dishes. saute them in a little butter or olive oil to
soften them first
Asian Salad Greens
Scarlet Queen salad turnips - chop up the root and eat it
raw, but don't throw out those leafy tops - they can also be
chopped into your salad or cooked and tossed in with your
potatoes, pasta or rice

We are looking forward to another great season!

John and Janna
