Farm Happenings for August 11, 2023

Posted on August 7th, 2023 by Alex Smith

Hello All,

It's tomato time! Plenty of cherries for everybody but heirlooms and slicers are rolling in a little slower. They will hit heavy next week and last for a month or so.

My family and I are still eating tons of zucchini and squash here at the farm house. Most mornings I shred one or the other right into a fry pan and cook it gently before adding eggs to the pan. The result is tasty, textured, and nutritious scrambled eggs. We often top with a little feta cheese.

For our supper salad, we have transitioned from the spring lettuce-heavy salads to our fresh summer fruit salads. Cucumbers, cooked beets, red onions, tomatoes, herbs all diced up with a little oil and vinegar. *chefs kiss*

Please join us for our CSA picnic on 8/18 at 6 pm! More details here! The students, apprentices, staff and I are looking forward to meeting some of you and sharing some delicious food!

Enjoy!

Alex
