Here it goes for July 15th and July 18th:

Salad mix
We do wash and spin dry this mix so you can eat it out of the bag practically speaking!

Lettuce
May be only for Tuesday,just a little though. But more coming in a week or two.

Cucumbers

European Cucumbers
These are the long cucumbers.We grow them in greenhouses and you CAN eat the skin,it is soft enough! Some folks will get them,not everyone yet since they are JUST starting.But more to come really soon.

Zucchini

Summer squash
This is the yellow pear shaped thing. Eat it as you eat zucchini.

White pearl onions
You can eat the greens also!

Green beans
They are just starting and they are BEAUTIFUL looking! Since they are starting, not all of you might get them.If you don't get them this week then you can count on receiving them the week after!

Cilantro
This is an herb that is used in Mexican food and you find it also in the Thai kitchen! It looks like flat leaf parsley but paler in color. Put them in tortillas or in soups!

Garlic
We pulled some out today and they smell and look GREAT! We will try to give you as many as we can and please leave them OUT on your counter or in your garage or anywhere where they can dry out and cure since they are so fresh! Take them out of the bag and lay them out in a shady breezy place otherwise they will mold.
DO NOT REFRIGERATE!!

Carrots
They have arrived at the scene and if it is dry enough to dig them on Monday we will!

Here are the maybes this week: BASIL, BROCCOLI, SCALLIONS and SPINACH. If you get them the quantity will not be too great!

We are loving the weather and are very thankful for the rain yesterday!

Many greetings from all of us here on the farm!
