This is the time of the year when eccentric-looking root veggies abound. Red Fire Farm is bringing us a big harvest of organic celeriac, and we’re excited to have this quirky root vegetable going out in a number of boxes this week.

You’ll fall in love with celeriac, this Valentine’s Day. But be careful, there are many things that you can say to your celeriac that we recommend you don’t say to your Valentine. For example, “Your rough and hairy exterior makes you unappealing at first glance, and I’m intimidated to have you in my kitchen.” Seriously, don’t say that to your Valentine. Also, don’t be intimidated.

Instead, read the newsletter and become an expert on celeriac. Also learn about local basil, crisp watermelon radishes, and the Fair Trade chocolate hearts that you can add to your boxes this week!

Our Dogma Box includes organic fruits and vegetables sourced as close to Boston as possible throughout the year. Similar to a CSA or farm share, this box is filled with the best organic produce from local and regional farms each week.

They say that when life gives you lemons, you should make lemonade. But when Boston Organics gives you Meyer lemons, you should make a risotto, a raw kale salad, or candied lemon slices. Read this week’s newsletter for recipe ideas, and learn about our Meyer lemons, Mung bean sprouts, and collard greens.

Also get the details on our free film screening & discussion on GMO labeling in Massachusetts, and see what’s in this week’s boxes!

Super Bowl Sunday is almost here, but last week’s bone-chilling weather makes us wonder if “Bowl of Soup Sunday” might be more appropriate. We have lots of great soup-making ingredients in the boxes this week – Yukon Gold potatoes, beets, parsnips, cabbage, and more. Check out the newsletter for Super Bowl snack recipes and tips for a super bowl of soup.
