Well, for now the beets are being juiced. Greens included. They are so good! My husband is juicing now so maybe when he's done we'll experiment more with them. Maybe raw raviolis? Heidi - Mmm raw raviolis sound good. The beet greens are so very good for you. Here are a few recipe ideas you and your hubby might like to try ~ these are from my other site : Red Beet Salad with Tarragon Vinaigrette, this one is absolutely delicious (if I do say so myself) Winter Nori Roll and Beet Orange Soup. Can you tell I love beets! Also I'll email you are another recipe featuring yummy beets.

Excellent ideas! As you know we have a garden which is starting to produce. One of the benefits of being part of a community garden is some of the other gardeners share their bounty with us so hubby made off with an armload of beets. :) We also try to shop at the local farmer’s markets and we like buying in bulk too if we can.

Thanks for the great list of tips!

Your welcome Heidi! I wasn’t aware you are part of a community garden. That is great! How lucky you are to have fresh garden grown beets. I love beets. What will you make with them?

Buy direct from the producer as much as possible. The price is usually lower and you'll be investing in the producer rather than the wholesaler or retailer (i.e., middleman). You'll also have a better idea of where your food is coming from and how it is grown or raised and processed. Buying direct at a local farmers market is best, but when the market is closed or inconvenient, you can still find direct-selling producers willing to ship or deliver. See our Buy Direct Directory for sources. Thank you Michael for your response and the link to Farmers Market Online. What a great idea to offer a farmers' market online!
