Box #5, 2022
This week: 1 pint of summer squashes, 2 pounds new potatoes, 2 heads of lettuce, 1/2 pound spinach, 1 bunch beets, 1 &1/2 pounds of broccoli, 1 head of cauliflower.
This is the last spinach until fall…and the first lovely squashes.
Our favorite way to eat the first new potatoes is to quarter them and boil until fork tender, strain off the water, and add some butter and plain yogurt along with any fresh herbs laying around and salt and pepper.
The farm is getting really busy and I am having a hard time keeping up with inside jobs and so I apologize for being late getting this out. Summer crops are mostly planted and I’m seeding fall crops in the greenhouse this week. Its a funny balance of being in the present and needing to look toward the future at the same time. I guess we’re all doing that all the time in one way or another. Anyway, green beans are coming soon and cucumbers and onions.
