Seems like it was just Memorial Day, and here we are at Labor Day already. What a great summer it has been! The harvest continues to be strong, with overflowing totes again this week. The chickens are now out in the orchard, gobbling up bugs and spreading fertilizer, and fall planting was largely completed this week with carrots, turnips, green onions, radishes, snap peas, swiss chard, lettuce and spinach all going in the fields and hoop house.

This weeks shares include:

Green/Yellow and a couple random Purple Beans
Beets
Cucumbers
Zucchini
Sweet Corn
Basil
Parsley
Chives
Red Potatoes
Tomatoes
Cherry Tomatoes (if you can return the pint containers each week that would be awesomely appreciated)
Green Peppers
Jalapeno Peppers
Red Kale
Leaf Lettuce
Romaine Lettuce

Clare has updated the recipe site with a couple of new additions:

Grilled Green Beans

Chocolate Beet Cake

The following are also good ideas for this week's share:

Roasted Beets

Cooked Beet Greens

Hope everyone has an enjoyable and safe holiday weekend!
