Your farmers at Good Food Easy stand behind our commitment to feeding our community and those who are in need. We volunteer with Burrito Brigade and Food Not Bombs making food and cleaning up the kitchen for where both organizations share the kitchen.

FROM THE FIELD
For the whole month of February we’re once again hosting a food drive for one of our favorite local non-profits, and
You can bring non-perishable food donations to leave in the tote when you take out your share, and Tom will collect it all and deliver to the Burrito Brigade kitchen on Fridays. These local heroes make fresh and hot vegan burritos every Saturday and Sunday, which are distributed throughout the community by volunteers on the same day they are made; they also provide food boxes through their program, and have built and placed more than 50 in neighborhoods throughout Eugene and Springfield, as well as Veneta, Junction City, and Florence. Things they can always use are boxed rice and pasta meals, soft granola/energy bars, ready-to-eat foods, and pop-top soups and stews—but anything you are willing and able to contribute will be greatly appreciated! prepares various vegan and non vegan dishes every Friday 4pm-5pm at the Eugene Park Blocks. Volunteers for all these groups are always welcome too, so consider that as a rewarding way to give back to your community and meet some awesome people while you’re at it!

In our region, from early November to early February we get less than 10 hours of daylight per day, and the short day length at this time of year (the ‘Persephone Period’) makes plant growth really slooooooow down. But as you may have observed, days are gradually getting longer and soon we’ll be well on our way to springtime!
Here’s a nice explanation of the Persephone Period name from the Master Gardeners of Napa County:
“This concept is the “Persephone Period”. Elliot Coleman, author of many books on organic gardening, uses the term “Persephone period” or “Persephone days” to describe the time of year when the days have 10 or fewer hours of light. Since most plants need at least 10 hours of daylight for active growth, plant growth pretty much stops during the Persephone period and the garden shuts down.
Farmers have observed this phenomenon since ancient times and found ways to explain it. According to Greek mythology, Hades, the god of the underworld, abducted Persephone, the goddess of spring, and carried her down in his chariot to the underworld to be his wife. Persephone’s mother, Demeter, the goddess of agriculture and the harvest, desperately appealed to Zeus to have her daughter returned. Zeus asked if Persephone had eaten anything in Hades. Persephone admitted she had eaten four pomegranate seeds. Zeus then decreed that Persephone had to stay in Hades for four months of every year. In ancient times, farmers believed that Demeter withheld fertility and plant growth during those months, until her daughter was returned to her.”
What the Persephone Period means for us, is that we're pretty much at the low point of our growing/harvesting year. The good news is that we're almost out of the Persephone Period and in just a few weeks we'll notice plant growth pick up noticeably, perennial herbs will come out of their winter dormancy, and plantings of root crops and greens will sprout and grow much more quickly.

Look for posts about our February month long food drive 💕👍

Seed catalogs are arriving in the farm mailbox, as we do our annual inventory of leftover seeds from last year, and prepare to order more for the upcoming season. We try to balance a mix of tried-and-true favorite varieties, along with some fun new things to keep it interesting. Soon it will be time to start all the summer crops: tomatoes, peppers, basil, melons, eggplant, zucchini, and more. We’ll plant sugar snap peas in the next couple of weeks, and before we know it spring will be here! Farmer Erica From The Field

A post about last weeks CSA shares from our weekly newsletter.

FROM THE FIELD
You may have heard the phrase “eat the rainbow” as a way of encouraging people to include a diverse selection of fresh produce in their diet. We strive to include a variety of colors in the fruits and veggies we put in the Good Food Easy shares, and this week seems like a good example with green kiwis, orange carrots, purple potatoes and kale, red and yellow onions, gold beets, red lettuce, pink apples, and more. If you’ve ever been curious about the science behind the advice, here’s a nice article explaining the various health benefits the different colors provide. We hope it inspires you to eat your rainbow!

FEATURED VEGETABLE : Kiwis
You may think of kiwis as a tropical fruit, but they can grow quite well in the northwest; these were grown by our daughter and son-in-law at their small farm and vineyard near Oregon City.
If the kiwis in your share are a bit firm, they will ripen best if left in their paper bag at room temperature for a couple of days. Enjoy your kiwis once they have just a little give when gently squeezed. The fuzzy greenish brown skin is edible and can be rubbed free of the fuzz with a towel, or, if you don’t wish to eat the skin you can cut the kiwi in half and scoop out the flesh with a spoon. Or peel them with a paring knife and slice cross-wise in order to see the lovely pattern of the kiwi’s tiny black seeds. The slices make an attractive addition to a fruit salad or platter and are great in smoothies too, or dice them and add to chicken salad instead of the usual grapes. This recipe for Kiwi Salsa sounds tasty, perhaps with fish tacos? You can blend kiwis into a refreshing dressing to brighten up winter salads; try Korean Kiwi Dressing or a Creamy Kiwi Vinaigrette. For something a little more decadent, I like this idea for classic Lemon Bars re-visioned as bright pastel-green Kiwi Bars!

There’s just a few more days left to place pre-orders online for the Fill Your Pantry event on November 9; make sure to get your orders in before the window closes at midnight on November 2!
As the sponsors describe it, “Fill Your Pantry is a one-of-a-kind fall event that helps our community stock up directly from local farmers, ranchers, and food makers. It’s all about filling your pantry, freezer, and root cellar with nourishing staples for the winter—while putting your food dollars straight into the hands that grow and raise it. This is food sovereignty in action: neighbors supporting neighbors, building resilient local food systems one bulk bag at a time.”
Pre-ordering isn’t required, you can also just come on down and shop around the farmer’s market style event at the Agricultural Pavillion. Get all the details here, including some new features such as delivery options and using SNAP benefits to order online. Hope to see you there!
