What's in a large box or bag?
In our mid-January 2003 example (click here to see picture), we put in
- beetroot
- brussels sprouts
- cabbage, white
- carrots, large bunch
- garlic
- leeks
- lettuce with little bunch of winter purslane
- mizuna and namenia leaves
- pak choi, whole plant
- parsley
- squash
- salad rocket
- potatoes
The contents vary considerably according
to season. No to
matoes
in winter and no brussels sprouts in summer, for example. Obvious, you
may think, but not so to many city-dwellers who are accustomed to every
type of fruit and veg at all times, air freighted in by supermarkets from
Chile, New Zealand or Kenya!
Climate change? Pollution? Don't believe in it...
