Inventory is low this week, and we are not opening up the Pop-Up Farm Stand. However, if you go to a farmer's market you are likely to find cabbage for sale. There is a reason July is the time for hot dogs and coleslaw. As an alternative, check out our recipe for Curried Cabbage and Chicken. Serve it with a cold cucumber salad.
We hope to open Farm Stand again soon.
