Great rain, great sun, so now summer vegetable plants--tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, squash, cucumbers--are finally showing signs of life. Soon they'll be in the share. Well, in a few weeks, anyway...
Potato crop looks fantastic, garlic will be amazing, we're transitioning form the last of the spring lettuce to the first of the summer.
In the meantime, a fine share this week:
1.5 lbs March tomatoes
1 lb. sweet cherries from upstate NY
12 Garlic scapes (that's the absolute last of them until next year!!!)
1 bag delicious microgreens mix (pea shoots, radish, amaranth, pac choi)
1 head of lettuce
Choice of bag of kale or swiss chard
Swap for anything but dairy.
Speaking of kale, here's an amazing video about why you should eat your greens, kale especially. My father suffered from MS, and I so wish we had seen this video:
Eat your kale!
At the stand this week, in addition to the usual suspects, we have raspberries, yogurt smoothies from the same dairy that makes the butter (still out of production, sadly), kohlrabi, beets, chives, and Appleridge Chickens.
Enjoy!
