Next Week's Vegies

Dear Subscribers,

Expected vegetables for July 1st and July 3rd (we will deliver on Thursday this coming week,same times and places!):

Sugar snap peas

Mushrooms These are from a nearby organic farm

Spinach For Tuesday folks. Friday got it last week. Many (organic) farms, including us, had trouble growing spinach this spring so we are glad we have some! We wash the spinach and spin dried it this time so you can eat it right out of the bag. No need to wash it again!

Garlic-Scapes

Parsley

Zucchini

Summer squash This is the yellow pear shaped one. Some will receive this not all because it is just coming on.We keep track of who gets what and make sure that everyone gets the same amount!

Salad mix Which now only includes all kinds of lettuces. We wash this mix and then spin dry it so you can eat it right out of the bag. No need to wash it again!

Strawberries Strawberries are a difficult fruit to grow organically partly because they are a perennial and so you have to weed your strawberry patch all through the year. Last year we didn't keep up with the weeds so this year we have less. We continue our "fight" against our foe and hope that we can keep all the strawberries weeded this summer so that we will have more next year!

Scallions

Broccoli

Beets (may be) It is raining right now and we hope that by Monday the beets are big enough to pick! I personally love the beets especially in the spring! The "old" ones from last year don't compare!

A notice for folks that pick up at Sylvan Studios!!!!!
Matt Bohlman a fellow subscriber who owns the building is going to take all the boxes that are left after 6pm on Fridays and will put them in the cooler at his italian restaurant, Pizzeria Tazza on 5010 West Vliet Street. If you forget to pick up your box on Friday you can go to Pizzeria Tazza on SATURDAY from 11:30am till 5pm to retrieve your box. Peter and I really appreciate Matt doing that for you all and I hope you do too! We ask you not to make it a habit to pick up on Saturdays since that is NOT the pick up day,this solution is just for emergencies!
