Hugging roots
















Can you feel the love? Pete's Greens, an organic four-season vegetable farm in Craftsbury recently dropped over a half-ton of free root vegetables including carrots, potatoes, beets and turnips to Harwood Union and Mad River Valley public schools. The vegetables such as carrots and salad turnips will be used raw on their salad bar, but the bulk will be served hot as side dishes or vegetarian entrees. Many of the vegetables may go into Harwood's upcoming Localvore Lunch, a special monthly meal made of entirely local ingredients.
