Tomatoes Heriloom tomato varieties tend to be more delicious and more variable in yield. They also tend to crack or ripen unevenly. We find it worthwhile to grow them anyway thanks to their incredible flavor profiles. The yellow/orange variety that has been so prolific this season is called Nebraska Wedding and it is a bit of an exception to the rule- both delicious and consistent in ripening and shape.
Sungold Cherry Tomatoes This variety does tend to crack, especially after a summer rain. We try to sift out the spilt ones but sometimes it happens as they get jostled so you may find a few split ones in your bag. Cantaloupe These are some of the last of the beloved summer fruits! Green Beans Another round of green beans! Zucchini A little known fact- the smaller the zucchini the more tender and flavorful the flesh. Eggplant Just a few small eggplants still hanging in there this season. Red Onions The red onions are gorgeous this year and we have many more to harvest over the fall. Garlic This garlic is fully dry and should store on your countertop for months at this point. Cilantro This could be a great salsa week with the tomatoes, cilantro, onion, ad peppers. Sweet Peppers The pointy colored peppers are called Corno Di Toro types (Italian for bull’s horn). Don’t let their shape confuse you, they are incredible sweet. We also have some colored bell peppers in the mix. Green Butterhead Lettuce This variety has a tender, blanched (whitened by being kept from direct sunlight) interior and greener outer leaves.
