What to Expect - Week #8, Season 23

For Week #8 – August 1 — of the 2019 FACSAP Summer Harvest, we anticipate the following this Thursday:

HARTLAND NATURAL FARM – Jamie Whitaker

  • Tomatoes

  • Potatoes

  • Herb Assortment (rosemary, basil, lemon basil, thyme, etc)

GUERRA FARM – José Antonio Guerra Martinez

  • Tomatoes

  • Sweet Green Peppers

  • Choose from: Swiss Chard, Cilantro or Assorted Zucchini (large shares select 2 units, small shares select 1 unit)

DOWNTOWN GREENS YOUTH FARM PROGRAM – Jennifer Gron

I think DTG needs to take a break for this week. The cumulative effects of high heat and little rain has slowed growth on many of our crops.

ROCK RUN CREEK FARM – Francis Ngoh

Okra coming soon!

TERRA STONE GREENS – Caroline Nicotera

  • The fourth delivery of Microgreens is this week.

I will be providing two options so the share members may choose from: delicious, nutty Sunflower or spicy, crunchy Radish and Mustard mix - all (1) oz containers so the Large Shares may take 2 units and the Small Shares may take 1 unit. I put my microgreens through 3 baths, but I always recommend rinsing prior to use.

Try the sunflowers on your sandwich or salad and the radish on appetizers or a green smoothie for a full morning kick!

Enjoy ️

-Caroline
