Tasty Takes – Produce from Sage Mountain Farms & Deluz Farms

Produce from the CSA Box

Sage Mountain Farms & Deluz Farms may or may not be names you are familiar with. These are two local organic farms situated in the Temecula area. For those home cooks and foodies out there, the promise of a fresh, healthy and delicious home cooked meal with great ingredients is what makes this ‘tasty takes’ shot exciting.

What is a CSA box, you may be asking? CSA stands for Community Supported Agriculture. Basically, the community gives “pledges” and in return, they receive a box of fresh produce every week or two, depending on their pledge amount. There are several “pick up” locations around the county where members can get their box.

Depending on what is in season and what is ripe, the boxes will vary from week to week. This adds to the excitement of receiving the box every week. The CSA box in the picture above contains green bell peppers, carrots, tangerines, lemons, baby beets, juicy ripe Roma tomatoes, different varieties of new potatoes, green onions, red spring onions and a few varieties of patty pan squash. Oh, the possibilities…..
