This week we've got just about the last of the snap peas and spinach, for those of you who want one more taste. We've also got a flush of summer broccolini (the best) as our second planting comes to maturity and we're still harvesting from the first. Broccolini is great at giving us consistent bunches, but we have to time it right to get enough at once for our full CSA membership, and this is the week!
Our first full cucumber planting is still producing generously, and so are our early season cherry tomatoes, so we're also excited to share them with you this week. We're waiting patiently to have more zucchini to share, but the frost last week took a toll on the plants and though they were growing rapidly, they've taken a little time to bounce back. Soon we'll have more than we need.
We've also got a special green garlic treat, the first of our fully formed garlic heads. Green garlic is fantastic, as you can use the stalk like a leek, and you don't have to peel any cloves, just slice through the garlic, remove any tough outer layers, and chop away. Here's a great explanation of all the many forms of garlic, and some recipe ideas! In a couple weeks we'll be pulling our garlic plants and laying them out to cure so we can enjoy them all season and into the winter.
