Main Season Week 3

You may notice something unusual in you bag this week, particularly if you have been a CSA member in previous years - your carrots have no tops.  When we are low on labor in the fall we occasionally top the CSA carrots, but during the spring and summer we always bunch them.  This year you are going to be seeing a lot more bulk carrots.  Bunched carrots are beautiful, but they are labor intensive and we are trying to keep the crew small.  There is the misconception that bunched carrots are fresher.  That may be the case at times in the grocery store, but your bulk/loose carrots are harvested on the same day as if we were bunching them.
