How do we still have lettuce at the end of January?

It’s a long story! We seeded this lettuce in early September and transplanted it into one of our minimally-heated greenhouses in mid October. The days are short from November through January, so these little leaves have just been sipping what little sunlight they can find.

Remay (lightweight blankets) keep them a little warmer, as does a liiiiittle bit of propane to keep this greenhouse from freezing too deeply. But you know what blows my mind? Even tender little lettuces like these can survive freezing a few times! Greens that freeze in the back of my fridge turn into slime when they thaw, but if they’re still alive and in the soil they can bounce right back from icy solid to sweet tasty lettuce. Wild, right?

Enjoy your last salads of this CSA season, and we hope to see you in the spring!
