Hello From the Farm,
Summer is reaching its peak, and the fields are changing with each passing week. Early spring crops are steadily teetering out, making way for an abundance of tomatoes, peppers, squash, cucumbers, beans, and sweet corn, all while new successions continue to be planted for the weeks ahead. We’re starting Fall crops such as purple broccoli, many different cabbages and cauliflower, new varieties of kale and asian greens, more carrots beets, and other root veggies, and so much more! The gardens are full of color, pollinators are hard at work, and every harvest reflects the long days, warm sunshine, and steady care that make this season so rewarding.
The summer special and honey subscriptions are going out this week! Summer special subscribers will get a separate email about the different fillings for their pie.
Here’s what we have for Gene’s Choice this week:
Blueberries: Sweet, juicy berries bursting with fresh summer flavor, delicious by the handful or in baked treats.
Brussels Sprouts: Compact, leafy sprouts with a mild, nutty flavor that becomes wonderfully sweet when roasted.
Pickler Cucumbers: Popular for a quick pickle, but also great for snacking and salads.
Garlic: Our freshly cured bulbs that are bursting with flavor.
Green Bell Peppers: Crisp, vibrant peppers with a fresh, mildly sweet flavor that adds crunch to countless dishes.
White Onions: Mild, versatile onions with a clean flavor, excellent raw, sautéed, grilled, or caramelized.
Zucchini: Tender summer squash with a delicate flavor that's equally at home on the grill, in sautés, or baked into breads.
For choose-your-own members and those just jumping in for this week, please have your order in by 5 pm Tuesday, and leave some extra choices, just in case.
Rooted in Good Soil,
Gene & Victoria
