We are excited to announce that Queen’s Greens is planning to keep growing their Winter Gem Salad Mix, Spinach, and Pea Shoots all winter long in their 19 unheated high tunnels!
These greens are all grown in the earth, with no added energy inputs. Queen’s Greens farmer Danya Teitelbaum describes it as feeling like a “winter-long miracle.”
Real-life miracles actually take a lot of hard work and planning, so it’s important to keep in mind that in comparison to the warmer seasons, the greens supply will be limited. We recommend that you place your orders early, preferably by the Friday before delivery, in order to reserve your inventory. Placing a standing weekly order with Food Connects is also a great way to reserve your greens.
If you’d like to place a standing order, please email orders@foodconnects.org. If you have a Queen’s Greens order for next week (12/14-18), please submit it today (12/11). Later orders will certainly be accepted, but can not be guaranteed.
Queen’s Greens will be closed for the holidays from 12/21/20 through 1/3/21, so next week is your last chance to order before January.
We’re looking forward to sharing fresh, delicious greens with you throughout all four seasons of 2021!
