We still have plenty of the cold-weather-loving turnips and turnip greens, mustard greens, lettuce, broccoli, collard greens, radishes, and new for this week CABBAGE. Also, as we had to harvest all of our still-green tomatoes, we have a new batch of CHOW-CHOW made up. In addition, we'll have the usual fare of Dill Pickles, Pickled Beets, and Jalapeno Jelly.
