On the NY Times website, C. CLAIBORNE RAY, has written an article about this very topic. The article explains that you may in fact be blocking the UV rays that generate Vitamin D, but these harmful rays contribute to skin cancer and premature aging. But, one can get Vitamin D from eating foods like fatty fish and vitamin fortified milk and taking Vitamin D supplements!

Because we got so many turnips in our weekly fresh vegetable box from the Bluebird CSA, we had to get creative and find new ways to cook turnips.

We had so much fun that summer learning from our local farmer how to use our fresh ingredients from our CSA boxes.
