From Katie at Path Valley Farms: We've finally turned a corner, as it warms up! The few hard frosts in May certainly slowed some growing down, but things are looking up from here! We anticipate asparagus for a few more weeks. The frost was very hard on the strawberry plants, so we're unsure if bags/boxes will contain strawberries this year!
Here's the lineup for Saturday 6/6 delivery:
Happy Family Veggie Box
- small bag of mint: Kentucky Colonel Mint is the best variety of spearmint to use for mint juleps, also great for iced tea!
- 1 lb mix greens: ever changing mix of mizuna, tatsoi, red/green kale, red/green mustard, scarlet frills, beet greens, and some sylvetta.
- 2 bunches of Swiss Chard or Italian Dandelion: dandelion is a great bitter green! incorporate into salad or create a bitter dish for your table. read our post about dandelion here!
- 4 cucumbers: cucumbers make the perfect snack or use for smashed cucumber salad!
- 2 ripe red tomatoes: some of the best greenhouse tomatoes we've ever had :)
- 2 zucchini: what about grilling them with some of the green onions?!
- 1 lb of asparagus: store in a jar of water in your fridge for freshest asparagus when you're ready to cook!
- 2 bunches of spring onions, garlic or shallots: aliums make us :) too many for you to garnish and cook with? throw some on the grill or wilt them in your pan to add to your dinner plate!
