Tomatoes and Corn say Summer

Posted on August 4th, 2021 by Tessa DeMaster

 

We are picking tons of veggies, planting more in the field for fall but I think cucumbers are done for the year. Green beans are finally here and we just started harvesting potatoes this past week so this is their first appearance. Red potatoes have a thin skin so you don't need to peel. We've added mushrooms again. 

ONE Portobello or Zucchini. We're making these available one each to make get more veggies in your boxes for the best value.  CUSTOMIZE to see all the veggies and goodies available. Add a single zucchini or portobello mushroom to your box if you'd like but you won't be able to swap evenly "one"  for a "bunch" of another veggie because the values are different.  You can swap zucchini for more portobellos if you want, though! Let me know if you have any questions. Also see Special Offer below.  

Harvesting: Cherry tomatoes, Medium red tomatoes, Sweet Corn (Organic!), Green beans, Eggplant, Sweet Yellow Onions, Jalapeño peppers, Yellow & Green Summer Squash, Garlic, Beets, Red Cabbage.  ***Sometimes we have limited amounts of the first harvests. If you love something above and didn't get any this time, change your preferences to mark that veggie as a "5" and others as something lower. NEW: Sweet Corn is NOT organic - four ears come in a bunch. 

 LAST CHANCE FOR FARM TOURS & PIZZA NIGHTS THIS MONTH - see below. 

SPECIAL SALE: If you order $30 of pantry items from us, we'll send you a free canvas bag with pocket.  

Ordering EXTRAS from Willow Haven?  Items can be added right into your order after you customize your box. You do NOT have to place a separate FARM STAND order. 

Let us know if you have any questions about your Farm Share CSA - we are happy to help.

We'll keep farming for you!
