I also agree, a weekly share list in advance would be helpful. Or a current list of our most recent share…what is the name of the celery-like vegetable we received last Saturday? Thanks, e

Happy 4^th of July weekend! On the farm it has been extremely hot and extremely dry. Lettuce is bolting, as well as some of the broccoli we planned to give you over the next few weeks. Upcoming in the next few weeks: beets, radicchio, cherry tomatoes! The garlic will be ready to harvest in a week or two as well, and we’re planting our final winter squashes and cut flowers which will be harvested at the end of the season – can you believe it?

 Share items for June 30 & July 3:

 2 lbs zucchini (green, yellow or Sunburst squash, also known as pattypan)

3 lb Cucumbers

1 head lettuce

1 bu kale or Swiss Chard

1 bu Dill

1 head Broccoli

1 head Napa Cabbage

1 bu sweet salad turnips

Fruit share: 3 pints Long Island blueberries, possibly 1 pint cherries

Flower share: zinnias, snapdragons, amaranth, cosmos, sweet peas.

“This elegant yet simple salad is lovely as a compliment to a main course or on it’s own.”
