July 1rst
Happy Canada day! Wish also makes me think July already??? In about 2 weeks i will already be seeding some winter crops. The weather so far hasn't been particularly summer like which i don't mind for working but i know the tomatoes would like some extra sun. We expected to be swimming in cherry tomatoes at this point but so far have only had enough to maintain CSA and restaurants. I seriously worried about having too much. Time will tell.
The baskets this week were nearly identical to the last. It's been tricky for me to write this blog and have pictures this season as my involvement in CSA has diminished significantly. We've officially split up responsibilities to help with confusion and keep things running smoothly this year. However, i will need to remember to snap some photos to share with you all the wonderful things going on.
In your basket this week:
Chez Nous Salad Mix
Garlic Scapes
Cherry tomatoes
Beets with greens
Sugar Peas
Extra Greens: Kale and Sunflower Greens
Garlic Scapes are a spring staple and while we do use them in dishes such as eggs, stir fries, pasta and salads we also make sure to blend some up with olive oil and freeze. This paste is the perfect base for all kinds of dishes during the winter months from soups, spaghetti to pesto.
Have a great weekend!
