WeeK 11

Hello Farm Friends,

Week 11 finds us beginning to be overwhelmed with...........you guessed it tomatoes. They are really starting to come on now and you will find a hefty quantity in your crates this week. Paul Robsons, Cherokee Purples, Brandywines, Goldies, Big Beefs, Early Girls, Big Mamas and orange, red and yellow cherries. In "pepper world" a new pepper arrives this week it's a Hungarian Hot Wax pepper. They look somewhat like a banana pepper and are yellow-orange in color. They are a hotter pepper. We have had a couple of requests for green tomatoes. They are wonderfully tart when they are fried. Let us know if you're interested in having some.

This week's crate includes:

Tomatoes
Cucumbers
Zucchini
Yellow Squash
Corn (butter and sugar...yellow and white)
Onions
Garlic
Peppers
Basil

If you would like a fresh chicken, as opposed to frozen, the next batch will be in the coolers 8/5-8/8. These should run 5-6 pounds.

Also, you folks at Rohini's pick up on Park Heights, we would love to have you visit the farm and see where your food is coming from. Feel free anytime you would like.

BTW Thank you for the recipes. They are all posted on the web site under recipes.

Steve and Vicky
