Week 16
August 26, 2016
Hello Everyone,
Here is the list of bounties you may be receiving this week:
Peaches, Eggplant, Mesclun with Nasturtiums, Scarlet Globe Radishes, Beefstake
Tomatoes, Mixed Cherry Tomatoes, Cucumbers- Holland White or Green, Peppers-
Purple or Red, Beans- Dragon’s Tongue and/or Royalty Purple Pod
Incredibly once again major downpours passed by the farm. I
am completely shocked at the difficulty that all farmers are being put through.
Thankfully the compassion and understanding is overriding the hardships. Thank
you to all of you for your wonderful support. I am overwhelmed by the support.
This week we have a treat of organic peaches. They are from
a farmer in the valley who has been incredibly supportive and gave us a great
price on them so we could add a new item to our shares. The boys and I each got
one for ourselves. Yummy.
Included this week is beautiful eggplant. Multiple uses for
this one including our standby from Rome:
Heat olive oil in a pan, place sliced eggplant in, adding
more olive oil as needed. Flip eggplant to cook other side. Remove and set
aside. Place thickly sliced tomatoes in pan and fry until just softened. Be
careful this does not take long! Next return eggplant back to the pan top with
the tomatoes and place Provolone cheese on top. Cover with lids and cook until
cheese melts. Serve immediately. Makes a great appetiser.
I hope you all have a fabulous weekend!
Your Farmer,
Amber
