Why I Love My Market Food Box

This was the joke of the Leslieville Farmer's Market crew today during the pickup of the weekly Winter Food Mix boxes. One of these two items is a bunch of kale that's imported from Texas and sells for $2.79 at a large chain grocery retailer that shall remain nameless. The other is a bunch of kale grown a short drive away from here using organic practices; it sells for $3 at our very own market. I leave you, dear reader, to figure out which is which. Well, as I pointed out to the other market volunteers, I wouldn't look my best after 1,450 miles in a truck either.

  1. The choice is obvious. After being a CSA subscriber for 2 full years, I'm a little out of sorts that there's a chance there'll not be a winter program this year. :( Trying to figure out plan B.
