Brown Market Shares!

Brown Market Shares rocks.

For a few reasons. First, is that, after hearing about our experiment, they gave us entire share for free because they had some extra left over (don’t worry though, we’ll hash out the pricing in a later post!)

Second, is that the process is so incredibly easy. I walked into Hillel, smack in the middle of campus, and picked up my share, while chatting with the super amicable volunteers who helped me out.

Included in the share was:

Onion (1) from Mello Farm

Apples (5) from Hill Orchard and Barden Orchards

Tatsoi (1 bunch) from Rosasharn

Parsnips (1 Ib) from Four Town Farm
Greens (1 bunch) from Rosasharn

Potatoes (2 Ib) from Maplewood Farm and Rosasharn

Carrots (1 Ib) from Shartner

Bread (1 loaf) from Seven Stars Bakery

Not only did they provide us with a produce share, but they were also kind enough to give us a dairy share, which included:

Eggs: a dozen eggs from either Pat's Pastured or Zephyr Farms.
Milk: a half-gallon of Rhody Fresh milk.
Cheese: 8 ounces of Pirate Spread (Feta base) from Narragansett Creamery.
Yogurt: 16 ounces of whole plain yogurt from Narragansett Creamery

And third, is that all of the food they gave us was absolutely delectable! Such an incredibly positive experience, based off of it, I could really not recommend the program higher.

Stay tuned for what we did with all of this delicious food after we sourced it!
