Another Holiday approacheth while the Pandemic continues.. Happy 4th of July!  Hope you all figure out how to modify and enjoy the Holiday somehow.  We usually mark the occasion with a farm BBQ (not likely happening this year due to COVID19)  but we'll do our best to figure out how to mark the occasion.  Strawberry shortcake might do the trick (wish we had some blueberries or blackberries to offer for some festive blue).

Crop updates: Green beans are in!  We are growing 3 types, Romano (wide and flat), regular string bean, and purple beans.  All taste delicious and most of you will get the Romano type this week, but we may run short and we may sub in the others. More cukes and summer squash for your salad and grilling needs.  Also harvesting some spring onions (fresh, uncured).  As the greens didn't look so hot this year, you'll get them topped.  Use them like any other onion, or quarter/halve them and throw them on the grill- they're sooo sweet :)
