How does the food vary through the season?
At the beginning of the season, that is, in early June, there will not be that much food. It will primarily be things like lettuce and spinach and peas and green onions. Then the season begins to pick up. Towards the end of June, there will be strawberries. Then we start getting more and more, with the dark green leaves kicking in and carrots and broccoli. By mid- to late July you will probably have more than you can eat in a single week, what with tomatoes (lots of them!) and zucchini and peppers and eggplants and sweet corn and basil bursting out all over the place. That’s when the CFK will come in handy as I will process and preserve the surplus food so you can keep it to eat later. The bounteous harvest continues until frost, around mid September or sometimes as late as early October. Then the amount of food will drop off a bit, but you’ll still be getting the dark green leaves and broccoli, cabbage, oriental greens, and cauliflower, and you’ll begin to get pumpkins and root vegeta
