Hello CSA Members!
More of our summer crops are coming out of the field this week, including eggplant. We have a few different varieties we like to grow- Barbarella (pictured), Italian, and Japanese eggplant. Some people prefer to use the Barbarella more for baba ghanoush, the Italian eggplant for eggplant parmesan or other roasted dishes, and the Japanese eggplant for stir fry, but it is all up to personal preference.
After a rainy spring/early summer, we’re hoping the hot, sunny conditions the next few days will bring peppers and tomatoes to you soon. We will also have peaches again for the fruit share this week. See you at pick-up!

Hello CSA Members!
We will have carrots again this week and cabbage for everyone. Our farm store opened yesterday so it’s getting busy around here!
Farm-fresh carrots are such a treat. They’re sweet and full of flavor. Perfect on they’re own or in a slaw or stir-fry. Cabbage is another favorite and is so versatile. Throw it in a stir-fry, make some sauerkraut, or pair it with carrots in a slaw.

Hello CSA Members!
Carrots are new this week! We’ll have cherries and apricots again for the fruit share. Our cucumber plants are looking amazing this year- we planted and trellised them in the greenhouse to protect them more from pests and they’re thriving! They are so delicious and refreshing as a simple snack or thrown in a salad.
Our farm store will also open this coming week on Thursday, July 17th.

Hello CSA Members!
It was hot at CSA this week and it looks like next week will be the same. We will have fava beans again- if you haven’t used them before and aren’t familiar with them, check out our website for how to prepare them. They’re a great addition to summer pasta or salad dishes. Even just cooking them in a little butter with salt and pepper is delicious too.

Hello CSA Members!
It’s already Week 4 and summer is nearly here. We have more spring veggies to bring you this week as we wait for our warm weather crops to grow.
A lot of people have been asking about sorrel this week. If you’ve never used it and love the taste of lemon, you should definitely try it- in eggs, pesto, a salad, or even a chimichurri. It adds a little burst of flavor that’s addicting. Get creative with it!
