Week 7
Here are some of the items you may be
receiving in your delivery this week:
Early “Nantes” Carrots, Garlic Scapes,
Bok Choy, Lovage, Scarlet Kale, Mesclun Mix, Nasturtiums, Rainbow Swiss Chard
Hello Everyone,
Garlic Scapes have arrived. These are
one of our favourites for making delicious pesto. Here is our easy go to
recipe:
Chop up the garlic scapes. Place them
in a food processor with parmesan and a squeeze of lemon. Pulse together and
slowly add olive oil as you pulse to reach a smooth consistency. Delicious on
pasta, bbq’d vegetables, meats, seafood.
I have a bag of frozen chopped garlic
scapes in my freezer to pull out when I need an easy dinner. We have frozen
lovage butter in there too.
The boys had a friend stay over on
harvest day. I was very impressed with how gunho he was to help out. It was
wonderful having the boys showing him what we are growing, collecting eggs,
feeding the animals. We are looking forward to having him and his family over
for a bon fire soon on a day I can take more time to relax and cook all these
wonderful vegetables to share.
All meat birds for July 18th
are now preordered. We have started taking preorders for the next batch which
will be in a couple months. Thank you!
I hope all of you have a wonderful
week!
Your Farmer,
Amber
