Wildflower Honey
Grower: Bedillion Honey Farm
Store: Liquid honey needs to be stored in a cool dry area avoiding sunlight with an optimal temperature of 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit. It also should be kept it in a tightly lidded container as honey easily absorbs moisture. Over time, liquid honey will crystallize (also known as granulating). That is ok.
Recipe: Salted Honey Pie, Honey Butter, Honey Garlic Chicken
Scallion Microgreens
Grower: Harmony Grove Farm
Store: Keep microgreens between damp paper towels, and make sure they are cold and covered in a resealable bag or container. Wrapped this way, they’ll last in the fridge for about a week

Pea Shoots
Grower: Clarion River Organics
Store: Use your pea shoots quickly — within a day or two. Wrap them in a paper towel and place them in an open plastic bag in the refrigerator. When you’re ready to use them, gently wash and discard any large stems.
Recipe: Garlic Pea Shoots, Lemon Risotto with Pea Shoots, Pea Shoot Salad
French Fingerling Potatoes
Grower: Clarion River Organics
Store: Store potatoes in a cool, well ventilated place. Colder temperatures lower than 50 degrees, such as in the refrigerator, cause a potato’s starch to convert to sugar, resulting in a sweet taste and discoloration when cooked.
Recipe: Herb Roasted Potatoes, Crispy Salt and Vinegar Potatoes, French Potato Salad
Basil
Grower: Dutchboy Farm
Store: To keep basil fresh, trim the stems and place them in a glass or jar of water, just like cut flowers. Loosely cover it with a plastic bag and leave it on the counter. Although certain herbs, such as parsley and cilantro, can be stored this way in the fridge, basil does better at room temperature.
Recipe: Homemade Basil Pesto, Thai Basil Chicken, Basil Pesto Hummus
Braising Greens
Grower: Blue Goose Farm
Store: Rinse and dry the leaves before refrigerating. Wrap them in a paper towel and store them in a plastic bag
Recipe: Braised Greens Tacos, Creamy Polenta with Braised Greens & Poached Eggs, African Braised Greens with Tomatoes
Chives
