This week we have a lot going on over at our veggie stalls as greens are in absolute abundance. For this reason Johny’s Garden, Sylva Lining Organics and Summit Organics all have specials on their greens – they are 3 for $10 at Johny’s Garden and Summit Organics and 2 for $7 at Sylva Lining Organics. Make the most of your greens while they are in season, fresh and abundant! Maybe even use them in last week’s recipe of the week?
Toby at Johny’s Garden has also let us know that he will also be including small cabbages in his 3 for $10 offer as they too are in abundance. Cabbage is great for our health and well being with half a cup of cooked cabbage has about a third the vitamin C you need for the day. It also gives you doses of fibre, folate, potassium, magnesium, vitamins A and K, and more. Toby says that it is time to start fermenting and making sauerkraut with all of this abundance! As well as fermenting you can steam, boil, sauté, stir-fry, bake it, chop it raw for coleslaw and other salads, or use whole leaves as a heart-healthy substitute for tortillas or sandwich bread.
