Twenty Bag | Jun 19

In the Jun 19 Twenty Bag: Personal watermelon, rainbow carrots, green beans, fingerling potatoes, sweet corn from Swicord Farms in Grover, SC, Sea Island sweet onions, poblano peppers, Sungold tomato mix.

Thank you Harleston Towles and Rooting Down Farms!

With the plethora of potatoes rolling in from the farm almost weekly, I was happy to find this easy recipe that pairs them with the fresh green beans in this week’s Bag.

A quick search of sweetgrass + grits will take you to plenty more recipes—all curated with an eye toward the weekly Twenty Bag harvest.

Harleston’s storage tips: If greens or herbs of any kind begin to wilt at any point or at pick up, put them in a big bowl of ice water for 20-30 minutes.  Almost all produce is washed and should go in the refrigerator. Watermelon is amazing cold so best in the fridge.  Carrots in a plastic bag for long term keeping. Tomatoes and onions on the counter.  Potatoes in a cool DARK place in the pantry.  They will turn green if exposed to light.  Corn, peppers, and beans in the fridge in a plastic bag
