Mini Broccoli: Small, but Mighty

We are excited to share that our mini broccoli is at its peak this week. These tiny green gems are packed with flavor and nutrients. Their tender stems and delicate florets are perfect for stir-fries, salads, or even just for snacking right out of the bag. If you got mini broccoli in your share this week, check out our quick and tasty pasta recipe below! Also, we've spotted the first cherry tomatoes and summer squash of the season starting to appear in our fields. These warm-weather favorites are just beginning to show their vibrant colors and will soon be ready to join your meals! Summer is here!

Get the Strawberries While They Last!

Our fields are continuing to produce some of the most delicious strawberries we've ever eaten. There's no time to waste, make sure to add them to your share this week, because the end of strawberry season is fast approaching. For those of you with a fruit share or who add them as an extra, check out our recipe for Strawberry Rhubarb Pie, if you can avoid finishing them all on the ride home!

A Delicious and Fresh Weekday Recipe!

We love to cook as much as we love to grow healthy, delicious ingredients, because there's nothing better than sharing a tasty home cooked meal. That's why we share tips and our favorite recipes that use our crops on our blog! This week, we're sharing a delectable Lemon Garlic Broccolini Pasta recipe. This  kind of light, summery pasta dish is a staple at my house because it's fast, fresh and delicious. It's perfect for a quick weeknight dinner and can be adjusted to accommodate all different types of produce.
