Bright & Fresh Recipes

This week’s box is packed with the vibrant flavors of the season, found in the forms of vibrant chicories like Treviso radicchio, winter citrus such as lemons, and harder-to-find favorites like persimmons. Perfect for winter salads, these seasonal beauties arrive alongside locally-made wine vinegar, farm-fresh eggs from our heritage breed hens, fragrant herbs, a bottle of French rosé, and nutty Gruyère cheese bread; enjoy!
