The Dogma Box is transitioning into local fall produce in a lovely way. Atlas Farm is moving further into their fall harvest and that means potatoes, onions, and beets are being added to the list.

We’re also starting to work more with Deep Root Organic Coop, a cooperative of almost 20 organic farms in northern Vermont and southern Quebec. We work with them mostly in the colder months to get some of the best root veggies around! This week we’re getting delicata squash, turnips, and Brussels sprouts from Deep Root.

This week’s Dogma Box includes:

Delicata Squash – Deep Root Organic Coop (Johnson, VT)
Turnips – Deep Root Organic Coop (Johnson, VT)
Brussels Sprouts – Deep Root Organic Coop (Johnson, VT)
Potatoes -Atlas Farm (S. Deerfield, MA)
Beets– Atlas Farm (S. Deerfield, MA)

Romaine Lettuce – Atlas Farm (S. Deerfield, MA)

Brussels sprouts are very hard to find locally, and these look particularly great. We’ve got a few preparation tips and recipes for this notorious veggie on our Brussels Sprouts page.
