Local Food, Global Flavor: Spring Greens

We’re accustomed to having fresh greens whenever we want them from the supermarket. But before our modern food system took hold, people were stuck eating whatever was put away in the pantry. Spring greens were something to celebrate, a sign of exciting foods to come and a much needed nutritional boost when people desperately needed it. Even though times have changed, spring greens are still exciting to us here at the Co-op. Nothing can beat the freshness of those first greens produced locally after a long winter of eating food shipped from other places. Join us in preparing and tasting all of the amazing dishes that can be prepared with an early spring bounty.
