We ROOT for winter vegetables all winter long! While temperatures drop, snow falls, and the ground freezes, our farmers stay busy producing winter crops that you can serve all throughout the season! Ask your farmer if they are growing or storing these local winter products:
- Kale
- Butternut squash
- Potatoes
- Apples
- Carrots
- Beets
- Dairy
- Mixed greens (sometimes available in early and late winter)
