This week: 1 bunch rainbow carrots, 1&1/2 pounds snap beans, zucchinis, 1 cucumber, 2 heads of lettuce, 2 bulbs of fennel, 1 bunch of cylindra beets, 1 bunch of kale, 1 mix bunch of onions.

The cylindra beets are an heirloom variety that lends itself well to being pickled and is good for any other type of cooking too. Their texture is firm.

There are 2 heads of lettuce in your share; 1 is red bibb and the other looks more like frisee endive but is a lettuce. The cucumbers are just getting started so there is only 1 this week but more will be coming in future weeks. With the heat really turning on this week, I think the kale won’t last much longer so we hope you enjoy the last of it until fall. The onions this week are 1 each of red, yellow, and white. The white and yellow look pretty similar but the white are slightly more oblong and are a spanish sweet onion; great for salsa or taco topping.
