Discover the Wonders of Garlic Scapes

This week, our farm is brimming with whimsical and flavorful garlic scapes! These spiraling shoots sprout from garlic bulbs and carry a milder, sweeter flavor than the garlic bulb itself. Not only are they delicious, but they're also highly nutritious and versatile in cooking, from grilling to pickling. If you're looking for a super quick meal for a busy week, check out our garlic scape pesto recipe below! Make the pesto while the pasta boils!

Get the Strawberries While They Last!

Our fields are continuing to produce some of the most delicious strawberries we've ever eaten. There's no time to waste, make sure to add them to your share this week, because the end of strawberry season is fast approaching. For those of you with a fruit share or who add them as an extra, check out our recipe for Strawberry Rhubarb Pie, if you can avoid finishing them all on the ride home!

Spice up your week with some extras:

? Oak Spring Farm Strawberries
