After what seems like an endless winter, we seem to have FINALLY entered a warming trend in northern Vermont. It's still dreary, but at least the rain continues to melt away the snow. Last summer my husband and I joined a CSA (through the wonderful farm Pete's Greens in Craftsbury) and since they're a four-season farm, they offer three different CSA seasons: Fall/Winter, Spring, and Summer. We've been in the spring share for a month now, but it still feels like winter - cabbage, root vegetables like rutabagas, carrots, and potatoes, and shoots mixtures containing the babiest of greens have been on rotation for the past few weeks.
