We've had lots of questions about when tomatoes will show up in CSA shares / at market. The cold spring delayed most every crop in the field, and tomatoes were no exception. We would expect to be harvesting cherry tomatoes by now, but they're just now beginning to ripen. We expect to finally be picking them for next week's share. The plants are huge and loaded with unripe fruit, so here's hoping they have a strong season, albeit a late start!
We still have bulk cuke boxes this week. The cucumbers are regular slicers, but they're great for a quick refrigerator pickle or even canning pickles, whole or speared. Boxes are $30 for 20 lbs of cucumbers. Pick up on farm or at your drop site. You'll see these on the CSA list this week to add to your share.
**If you have a FLOWER SHARE or your ordered a bouquet and you pick up on-farm, please remember to grab your flowers from the table in the stand - they won't be in your box!
We're very low on Chesapeake Gold cheese right now but we'll be stocked up again soon!
A friendly reminder to please return your boxes, bags and ice packs to the farm or your delivery site.
Thank you!
