We are app. 1/2 way through the CSA, depending on how long the weather lets us harvest. Some things will be ending their season soon, while others will just be starting. It's been a weird year - some things we have never had issues with didn't do so well because of all the rain, like potatoes. We will have some but not tons. Broccoli - usually we have an abundance of this, but those were plants we had to seed 3 times, and we just never seem to have enough to give to everyone. Wondering if the cauliflower plants are going to start making cauliflower heads, or just be huge green foliage in the garden. Hoping to have eggplant soon, and The tomatoes are doing ok, the cherry tomatoes more so than the regular. We hope going into September they will thrive and we hope to share more of them with you.
This weeks shares:
Medium:
Rutabaga - peel, dice, boil & mash. Or peel, cut into slices, and make a gratin.
Beets
Carrots
Onion
Zephyr Summer Squash
Corn - 1/2 dozen (could have worms, we did not spray it this year - just cut around that worm spot if you find one). You don't just have to boil corn - cut it off the cob and saute it, or make a side of fresh corn with some cilantro & lime
Tomatillos - these are husked wrapped green tomatoes basically, though they are sweeter and never ripen like tomatoes. They are great in Mexican recipes, raw diced or sliced in tacos. Oh, that little fresh corn dish I just mentioned would be great with some of these thrown in.
Cherry Tomatoes - take a pint off the table
Flat Romano Beans - mixed yellow/greenRomaine Lettuce
Swiss Chard
Cukes
Tomato - Heirloom varieties, not as pretty but super tasty.
Basil
Cilantro
We gave you a break from kale this week. If you wanted kale, just say so. It's super easy to pick and we can grab it last minute.
