Adventures in something new.

In the last few years, I have sought out the opportunity to try new fruits and vegetables. Things I may not have experienced before, or even new recipes for items I am used to. Tuttles totes make a great opportunity for expanding that experience. Trying new recipes is fun and learning the proper storage techniques for my fresh produce has been quite interesting. Most of all, there is a real comfort in knowing the health benefits of farm fresh additions to our meals.

I love the weekly small tote! I've been a Tuttles devotee for more than 20 years but this is the first time I've taken part in the CSA program. I've thought about trying it out for a couple of years and am so glad I finally took the plunge. I am having a blast trying vegetables I've never tried before, researching recipes and discovering new favorites. I appreciate all of the guidance on storage and recipes. I feel like I am supporting a local business, sustainable farming practices, other local growers, all while reaping health benefits. I'm hooked and will definitely be doing it again!

Really Enjoying the Totes

I am loving receiving a small tote each work with different items. It’s been fun to experiment with different fruits and vegetables. I had never cooked turnips and when they were in my tote I roasted them and they were delicious. Also loved the bok choy which I had never purchased at the store. This is widening my cooking experiences. thank you!
