Seasonal Spotlight: Radishes

Why Eat Radishes?
Radishes are available year-round in Solano County and range from the Cherry Belle to the large daikon. They are a good source of Vitamin C, folate and riboflavin, potassium and calcium.
How to Prepare Them
Eat them crunchy and raw in a salad or sautee. Roast, braise or grill radishes to mellow the flavor. And don’t forget that the greens can be prepared like other winter greens!
Try Pan-Roasted Radishes with Radish Greens and find other seasonal recipes here.

Farm Field Trip Highlights Connections to Food and Well-Being for Interns
Student interns attending a field trip to Morningsun Herb Farm in March had an opportunity to touch, taste and smell a variety of plants and herbs as part of our Youth Wellness Program. The grounding, multisensory experience of visiting Morningsun provided a unique opportunity to engage with herbs, and invited full-bodied mindfulness, encouraging our students to slow down and be present with their thoughts and each other.
