Bad news, salad buffs there might be a shortage of mesclun mixture on the horizon. Most of our wintertime leafy light-greens are grown in the fields of Arizona, and this is normally a somewhat reliable arrangement. But this season has been uncharacteristically damp, and mildew has forced farmers to gather and thresh greens.
Normally, we can get loot from California which kicks up production right about it is now time make up for a lack of Arizona dark-greens, but the same soggy condition has retarded planting in California.
What does this mean for you? You may soon witness a lack of your favorite salad mixture it should last-place for about two weeks.
What should you do about it? Reconsider the kale salad. This hearty green will still be around.
Weve got some kale salads to get you started.
