Fresh Local Produce at the Viroqua Food Co-op!

Local Strawberries – get them while you can as their season doesn’t last long!  Pair with fresh cream & shortbread, Greek yogurt & honey, or just eat them all on the way home.  Buy extra & freeze them on cookie sheets, then pour into ziplock bags for easy retrieval after their season is over.  

Driftless Organics – Beautiful fresh parsley packed full of vitamins A, C, K & other antioxidants.  Adds a bright mineral flavor to dips, salad dressings, sauces, pasta, eggs – you name it.  Best used raw or added at the end of cooking.

 
Escarole from Snow Goose – a bitter green related to endive & radicchio.  The heart, which is less bitter than the outer greens, is great added to salads.  The outer greens should be cooked until just wilted, either by sautéing or adding to soup at the last minute.
