Welcome to Week 7!
It seems like every time I go out into the fields I see another gorgeous plant starting to fruit. Today I went out to pick oregano and from where I was sitting I could see the orangey-yellow hues of peaches glowing on the trees! It was mystifying! After I was done picking oregano I went to investigate the peach trees, the peaches were still very hard and definitely need more time and rain to ripen up. That being said, peaches will be added to the shares in no time!
Pickling cucumbers are available this week in bulk and one pound quantities. There are a few items in this weeks share that also pickle well if you want to make a day of it! I love pickled onions, carrots, and beans! We are also offering dill this week, its a match made in heaven!
There are still plenty of Warner Farm t-shirts available, and we are even still offering Heart Tonic Tea from Full Kettle Farm!

When I have extra beans (green or yellow!) this is a no brainer for using up the surplus! Lacey (the CSA manager from 2 years ago!) made them last summer, and still has enough left over that sometimes she brings them in to share! They are simply amazing, you can even add your own spice mix to suit your taste.
