In this week's share:
1) three pounds potatoes: Cranberry Red is a red-skinned, red-fleshed type with fine, moist texture ideally suited for boiling or sauteing. Prairie Blush is a new white variety with blushed skin and old-fashioned potato flavor exceptional roasted, fried or boiled. Mix varieties or take just one.
2) five heads hardneck hardy German garlic: cured and ready to store or eat. Garlic should be stored in a cool, dark place with good air circulation.
3) blueberries: again, from Red Jacket Orchards in Geneva, NY. Grown sustainably, not certified organic.
4) six ears sweet corn: like last week's, grown by Louis D'Allsandro (JD Farms). This week's is another bicolor, but with heavier, sweeter ears. Corn is low spray, non GMO seed, hand harvested, NOT certified organic.
5) Six dollars (or thereabouts) in items of your choice from farm stand: possibilities include cucumbers, summer squash, apricots, haricots verts, purple french beans, gold french beans, gold nugget cherry tomatoes, Red Jacket juice, goat cheese, milk, new zealand spinach, arugula or more potatoes, blueberries, garlic.
