- The summer crops are starting to arrive with eggplant coming next week. Tomatoes, peppers and sweet corn are still a couple of weeks out
- A poor showing of shelling peas, the sugar snap crop looks better
- Lettuce is Salanova butterhead or Devil’s Ear
- Our weather season has been wonderful: timely rains, some short stretches of heat, and sufficient sunshine
- Summer squash is great chopped/sliced thinly and grilled or pan sauteed with butter, s+p
- Cut up some cucumber, radish and scallion on a tasty salad
- Continue to return our boxes and ice packs
- We hope everyone is enjoying the summer!
