GARLIC 

TO WARD OFF:

-COLDS AND FLU

-UNWANTED ATTENTION

-VAMPIRES

(Use wisely!) 

You won't want to miss the power of garlic this winter--press a clove (or more) into your eggs, soups, and even sandwiches! Just give yourself some time to "air out" afterward. Even when keeping you at arm's length, everyone will be impressed by your good health!

Chef Meagan is back! She's got quiche, parmesan pasta, a grain bowl, oatmeal bake, sriracha buffalo chicken, Asian chicken noodle soup, and more--check out her offerings here and bon appetit!

PURPLE SUN WHEN YOU NEED IT MOST

(created with 40% of daily RDA of vitamin C per serving and more antioxidants than other varieties too)

When you cut into a purple potato from your farm share, you'll be surprised at the golden inside but happy to hear the "crunch" as you slice. My personal favorite potato, purple sun has great storing, mashing, roasting, and saute-ing capabilities. Well, you are the capable one in the kitchen--but it is the one making potato dinner possible, along with our fabulous growers, Yellowbirdies who packed the boxes, and drivers who deliver them! 

TURN UP THE BEET

(chiogga and gold beets in boxes this week)

Start out 2026 with a quiver in your liver! Folate, manganese, copper are all showcased in vibrant reds, oranges and even stripes. Shown to help:

-lower blood pressure

-reduce inflammation

-improve athletic performance, brain function and digestive health...

BEETS pack a powerful punch! That's why they're in your box--after they take the short truck ride from YB you need them in your belly.

A superhero variety cultivated in Pataskala, Ohio by Lynd Fruit Farm, with an "in-your-face candied-apple sweetness" and "a background tang and monstrous crunch" (Bloomberg panel of taste testers). This cross of Fuji's tartness and Honeycrisp's sweetness boasts longer storage life and improved texture than either "parent" variety.​

Enjoy this "localest of local" apples, developed right here in Licking County and grown by Bauman Orchards, in your YB share this week! And in this classic, simple apple crisp.
