One of the challenges of produce is keeping it fresh. The crisper drawers in a refrigerator are essential for this. However, if you are like us, we need about two or three more of those drawers! Recently, I did some experimenting. When I got home from Market, I tore off our kale and put it in a one gallon Ziploc bag. I left it on the shelf in the refrigerator and ... bingo ... no wilting! On the arugula, I cut off the roots and did the same. Mine lasted about two weeks (before we ate it all -- granted, it was about a pound of arugula!) Maybe this will help some of you or perhaps you eat it too fast to matter!
(Sorry the picture isn't the best quality. Guess I'd better stick to farming!)
