|
Member Beth Sorrell's Recipe of the Week:

Mashed Potato Squash
|
|
This white skinned squash, shaped like an elongated acorn squash, produces a creamy flesh that fluffs up just like its namesake. It can be a great substitute for those avoiding starchy potatoes, or blend with the real deal for a lighter, super satisfying lower calorie alternative.

Here is a good website with a recipe suggested by member Joanne McAndrews…

Notes on Trades and Orders
The share clipboards below will include the fresh produce on your list, but the cart in your Farmigo account lists only the tradable items in your share. You must spend the total credit value in your cart but you are welcome to buy extra.
|
Please check the descriptions of items! Some things are sold by the pound so the actual price will be different from what's listed in the store. If what's in your bag is not what you were expecting, give it back. If you're at the Mothership, you may be able to choose something else.
|
Pro Tip: You can browse the store when it's "closed" by logging out of your account.
|
|
|
|
|
Note that most of the available greens have gone to the store. We are filling the shares with jars and staple products so you can trade out and get what you like.
