Farm Happenings for July 20, 2020

Posted on July 17th, 2020 by Joan Norman

We have the first sweet corn of the season available this week! The corn is very sweet right now and the first corn of the season is always a real treat. Note that we do not have great options for controlling corn borer worms in organic farming so there may be some minor worm damage at the tip of an ear of corn. If you see any, just cut away the damaged part and use the rest of the ear. We also have the first cherry tomatoes available this week. One of our favorite summer sides is a quick salad of cherry tomatoes, garlic, basil, olive oil, balsamic vinegar, and cheese. Make a double batch and the leftovers will be even better for lunch after they marinate overnight.
