Cucumbers

Sweet Corn – First of the season!  We loaded this week up with sweet corn and will be doing that for the next couple of weeks.  There is tons in the field!

Basil

Heirloom Tomatoes

Ground Cherries – In the clam shells.  The smaller berries with the paper husk around them

Green Beans – I am very sorry but they only got packed into some boxes because the volume was low and I wasn’t aware it happened until it was to late.  We will have a bunch more coming into next week and beyond.  In the future if we don’t have enough of one product we will substitute something else.

Okra

Tomatillos – First of season!  This item is larger then the Ground Cherries but does have a papery covering like the Ground Cherries.  Remove paper husk before using

Mixed bag of Early Apples and Pears – First of Season!  Fruits are just starting to come in.  The apples are tart but delicious.  If the pears are a little hard let them sit for a day or two on your counter to soften.

Green Zucchini

Cucumbers - The long twisted looking thing is a specialty Japanese cucumber named Tasty Jade

Okra – Just a taste for now.  If you slice it thin and fry it that helps lessen the slimy texture

Ground Cherries - First of the season.  We made a sauce of them lastnight using a cup of ground Cherries, a pinch or two of sugar (use as much as you want to get to the sweetness you desire) and 1/2 tsp Cinnamon.  They can be eaten raw as well, very unique flavor.  Just remove the papery skins and enjoy

Cherry Tomatoes

Heirloom Tomatoes - They are starting to ripen more so the amount you receive in your box will go up.

Parsley

Basil

Swiss Chard
