Green beans
White nectarines
We have a lot of different summer squash this year. We have the usual zucchini and yellow squash. We also have the scalloped sunburst and Mediterranean. We also have eight ball and cue ball squash. You could get any of these choices! Be surprised. These are all summer squash as you can use them interchangeably in your recipes.
The cucumbers have a bit of scab on them. It is from the wet weather. This proves that we do not spray our vegetables!
You will love the white nectarines and the peaches. They all have hail damage. So we call them "Hail - kissed peaches"!
Fennel is a great vegetables. I have used it in stir -fry or grilled. It has a unique anise flavor.
Our first batch of green beans this year,. is a delicious small gourmet beans - very tender.
The store is open! We have new items added to the store each week. You can add these to your share at any time. You can pay for these as you go with a credit card or you can choose to wait until the end of the session and get a 4% discount by sending a check.
If you have any questions, please let us know.
