By 6 Comments

Does anyone else out there subscribe to a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) share?  I get one through a local farm (Featherstone Farms, I love you!), and when I pick up my box of fresh vegetables each week, I get really excited about all of the amazing things that I am going to make.  Perfect heads of lettuce, deep purple eggplants, bright green peppers, sweet yellow corn.

The last few months have made it very clear that much needs to be done to bring us together as a country and to heal us as a nation.  The big disagreement seems to be in exactly how to do this.  We need to find common ground and we may need to start small.   Truly though, I think we can all agree that anything that limits our access to avocados is a bad plan.  A bad plan indeed.  This Avocado Toast with Bacon and Sriracha will show you just how bad of a plan……
