First some corrections on the last post about Blue Dragon Farm…
It is actually called Blue Dragon Farm, not Touching the Earth Farm. And “Miss America” Sarah, who grows wonderful produce there, is Sarah Doyle, not Sarah Auten. She works with Dan Auten in raising the crops, harvesting, marketing, etc. Sorry for the confusion. Now that that is cleared up, let’s see some more pictures of their produce!
Yes, I took some home and checked the brix. Brix is a measure of soluble solids, in this case, in the plant sap. It is a general indication of nutrient density. Brix definitely correlates with sweetness/flavor because it measures sugars, among other food components. The brix was much higher than that of chard grown on the Blue Dragon Farm 5 years ago before it went from “just organic” to “Beyond Organic”. How much higher? About 7 times higher!
