  cabbage,carrots, onions, tomatoes, and choice of an herb.
• Add-on shares:
  • Fruit: plums & nectarines
  • Flowers: no
  • Mushrooms: expected every week unless we hear otherwise
  • Eggs: expected every week unless we hear otherwise
• For those with half shares, this is “B” week.

Serving Suggestions:

• Too hot to cook? Got home too late to bother making dinner? How about a “dipping dinner” where you cut up some of your fresh CSA veggies, including those crisp green bell peppers, and raid the fridge with anything and everything you can use as a dip?
  • Hummus: everybody has an opened half-eaten container right? Freshen it up with a squeeze of lemon, a drizzle of the good olive oil and maybe some chopped herbs
  • Salad dressing: thick dressings like ranch and blue cheese are always a favorite and are only a cap twist away
  • Quick Green Goddess: start with a big dollop of Greek yogurt or sour cream, then chop whatever herbs you have on hand, and be rough about it so they bruise and give up a bit of their moisture and a green tint to the mixture, stir to combine and season with s&p
  • The OG Onion Dip: nothing beats the nostalgia of dried onion soup mix stirred into sour cream (I typically buy two boxes whenever I think of it so there’s always an extra packet hiding somewhere in the pantry)
