Ginger and Turmeric


Greetings,

For several years we’ve gotten beautiful FRESH GINGER from Old Friends Farm down in Amherst, Ma. They also have fresh TURMERIC.

ORDERS WOULD BE PLACED THIS WEEK FOR PICK-UP NEXT WEEK, FRIDAY OCTOBER 23.

PLACE YOUR ORDER IN THE COMMENT SECTION OF YOUR REGULAR ORDER – OR – IF YOU’RE NOT DOING A REGULAR ORDER THEN EMAIL ME YOUR ORDER.

We offer both in 1 lb. or 1/2 lb. amounts. GINGER IS $12/LB or $6/ 1/2 lb.

TURMERIC IS $16/lb or $8/ 1/2 lb.

BOTH FREEZE VERY WELL AND KEEP THAT WAY A LONG TIME.

We’ll be harvesting some nice lettuce and arugula from the hoop house this week.

Chard, bok choy, and spinach are also still doing well.

Garlic is winding down, with mostly just small bulbs left. The snow didn’t melt from the field where the plants were until the third week of April so the bulbs never sized up the way they usually do.

Enjoy this beautiful time of year and thank you for your orders.

Tim
