What a box this week! It’s peak summer with the garden bursting with all sorts of diversity. I have linked several recipes to help inspire your meals for the week.
On Monday, we were able to share our farm story and details of how our CSA works with a film crew from Whitehall who will edit the film into a 30 minute show. How fun is that?
Besides trying to keep up with harvest and weeding of our fall plots, preservation is keeping us quite busy. We’ve been creating lacto-fermented dilly beans, zucchini cilantro lime soup, refrigerator dill pickles, blanched broccoli, roasted cauliflower soup, and soon will launch into tomato preservation.
In addition to all the fun with farm food, we are hosting another wedding here this Saturday. I just love farm weddings. They are so relaxed, personalized, and highlight the special seasonal food we can produce on the farm.
Wood-Fired Pizza on the farm
We’re only open Thursdays and Fridays through the end of August, 4:30-9pm. In September, we’ll only be open on Fridays.
Our special live music this week is Roamin’ California! This young man played last weekend at Ashley for the Arts in Arcadia and is sharing his talents with us at the farm Thursday evening from 6-9pm.
Your Farmer,
Heather
