1. IN THE BOX (IN ORDER OF WHAT TO EAT FIRST):
*Items in Box for 2
Garlic Chives- Store in the refrigerator, wrapped in plastic. Should last 3-5 days.
*Collards- Remove any bands, twist ties, etc. Most greens must be kept in an air‐tight container with a damp cloth to keep them from drying out. Kale, collard greens, and chard do well in a cup of water on the counter or fridge. Do not wash until ready to use. Will last 3-5 days.
Sugar Snap Peas- Keep them in a plastic bag in the refrigerator. Sugar snap peas should last for up to 5 days.
*Oregano- Place in a glass of water and cover with a plastic bag. Change water often. Will last up to 5 days.
Turnips- Remove the greens (store separately) same as radishes and beets, store them in an open container with a moist cloth.
*Kale and Chard- Refrigerate in a plastic bag, do not wash until ready to use. May keep for up to a week.
*Oranges- Oranges- Keep in a dish on your counter or table. Lasts one week.
Green Garlic- Wrap the green garlic in a damp paper towel and place it in a plastic bag. Should last 5-7 days.
*Leeks- These large alliums are rather mild in flavor and simply melt to perfection when sautéed. Use in soups, stir-fries, or in place of onions in other dishes for a delicious and more subtle flavor. Save the dark green tops for making vegetable stock! Leave in an open container in the crisper wrapped in a damp cloth or in a shallow cup of water on the counter (just so the very bottom of the stem has water). Will last at least a week.
*Carrots- Cut the tops off to keep them fresh longer. Place them in a closed container with plenty of moisture, either wrapped in a damp towel or dunk them in cold water every couple of days if they’re stored that long.
*Raisins- Store in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight. Refrigeration is recommended in hot environments. Should last several weeks.
