Break Week

Each year the farm takes a break from deliveries (over the 4th of July), so nothing to report this week. They did host a barbeque out at the farm on Sunday for Members Day, so Jeanette and I headed out in the heat and enjoyed some chicken, hot dogs and potato salad in the Berry Barn. They had a really good zucchini casserole that I'd like the recipe for (Kate - if you're reading this, that's a hint.) It's always interesting to see the terrific variety of people who choose to join the CSA and support the local farm.

We said hello to Wilbur, took a walk through the yard to say hi to the other animals, and sat in the shade and just relaxed. But the gnats and the heat got the best of us and we headed back into town after a couple of hours and then I took a long nap.

More to report after Saturday's box and picking. And then I've arranged for a friend to pick up my vegetables while I'm away for a few weeks. Perhaps I can prevail upon her to guest write - she's a better and more interesting cook so it would be good to get some new ideas of what to do with the vegetables.
