It's Harvest Season!


Things are getting ready on the farm all over the place.  This week the sweet peppers and ready and next week the jalapenos should be getting ready as well.  Unfortunately not quite enough of the tomatoes are ready for the box but if the weather is good this week they might be ready in time for next week's box.  The cheddar (orange) and verdant (green) cauliflower are slowly getting ready so some of you will see them in your box this week and some next week.   Here is what tomorrow's week 7 harvest should look like:


Bush Beans - purple, green filet and yellow wax
Sweet Peppers
Summer Squash/Zucchini

Cabbage

Broccoli or Cauliflower
Kale - red russian and black tuscan
Cucumber
Beets
Woody Herb bouquet (thyme, rosemary, oregano, sage)
Mint
Parsley

We also have a whole bunch of beautiful dahlias that we are offering as an add on to your box.  If you are interested in getting a dahlia bouquet please let me know and you can pick it up along with your veggie box.
