WEEK 4 Farm Share (Full Season Share)
Happy Summer Solstice! Today we get to enjoy more hours of sunlight than any other day of the year. This sunlight is requisite for so many of our summer crops to grow and be productive so we can share them with you. Moving from the shoulder season of spring into the vibrancy of summer brings more energy, diversity and people to our quaint island. I am excited to experience this shift in season with our CSA.
We have another great share for you this week. We are now moving into our mid and late season strawberries and moving through our garlic scapes. Some new crops are coming in like Baby Carrots and many more are coming up soon!
Next week is the first week of the summer CSA and the first week of our Flower CSA. We are so excited to have these new offers for you. Summer CSAs are still open and accepting new members if you are interested in signing up for a flower share or for a bread or cheese CSA for the summer season.

Note: CSA contents may vary slightly bag to bag depending on availability and consistency of the crop. We are not able to customize bags for specific customers.
My absolute favorite way to prepare garlic scapes is to grill them. Summer perfect for this time of year when cooking outside is ideal and this is such an easy way to add to your barbecue. Grilled Garlic Scapes is the recipe of the week, check it out!
Want more ideas of what to do with your garlic scapes? Bon appétit magazine has a wonderful article on how to make the most out of your garlic scapes. Check it out HERE
If you have a strawberry, garlic scape or another CSA produce recipe you enjoy - please share it in the shared album! Post a photo of what you've done with your CSA and include the recipe in the caption. I can't wait to see all that you create with the share
Can't make the next week's share?
You are allowed to skip up to 2 weeks (provided minimum 1 week forewarning) that can be added at the end of the share.
Want to add to your pickup?
You can add a week of the bread share, or cheese share to your pickup or upgrade you Farm share online! We also still have room in our Flower CSA's that start the first week of July if you want to add more to your pickup.
Thank you for participating in our CSA program and enjoy the produce!
Best,
