Week 6

Carrots We’ve removed the greens on this week’s carrots for easier handling.

Sugar Snap Peas This is the last week of peas for the season.

Summer Squash We are growing three varieties of summer squash this season: a green standard zucchini, a yellow zucchini and a light green Mediterranean squash. They can all be used interchangeably in any dish called for squash. These are quite some this week but we were excited to give you the first of the crop.
Broccoli Another big broccoli week!

Garlic Scapes This will be the last week of garlic scape because… drum roll please… the bulbs will be ready next week!

Basil The ideal way to store basil is with its stems in water. The leaves turn black when wet so wash right before use.

Swiss Chard This gorgeous, colorful green tastes similar to spinach, although it will need a slightly longer cooking time.

Cauliflower If you want the perfect roasted cauliflower texture, parboil it first by placing it in a pot of water, bringing to a boil, draining right after it boils, and then coating lightly in olive oil and salt to roast in the oven at 350.

Cucumber What a  bountiful beginning to cucumber season!
