It is very invigorating to bring a product to an appreciative customer. People's comments about the produce we brought to Kamm's were very positive."George Remington, Morningside Farm Roasted Winter and Root Vegetables 3 carrots, peeled 3 parsnips, peeled 3 golden beets 3 turnips 5 brussels sprouts 5 radishes 2-3 Tablespoons olive oil 2 teaspoons kosher salt 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 6 Tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped, stems removed 2 teaspoons dried oregano Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.    Rub beets with olive oil and envelop in aluminum foil.  As soon as oven is hot, place inside to roast separately.  You’ll know they’re done when a fork slides into beet easily.   Cut the remaining vegetables into 1-inch cubes. Don’t cut too small, as they’ll shrink while roasting.  Place all cut vegetables in a single layer on 2 baking sheets, drizzle with olive oil, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.  Toss well to coat.
