What’s at Market? Week of August 4th
August 4th, 2008 Posted in General Randomness, What's @ Market ?My mom has been here visiting for a week. It’s been really awesome to have her around. She and Demian get along great! And it’s been a nice break for Melanie and I to have Mom watch him for a bit while we get farm chores done. She’s always been a great mom to me and now she’s a fantastic grammy. She might be at market with us tomorrow (Tuesday) so if you see her say “Hi”.
So this week at market more summer veggies are showing up. Here’s what’s on the plate:
- Basil (It keeps getting chewed on by the cucumber beetles this year. Frustrating but it still tastes great!)
- Beets
- Beans (We’ll be getting into a new succession of “Jade” beans next week)
- Braising Mix
- Cabbage
- Carrots
- Chard
- Cucumbers
- Dill
- Eggplant
- Garlic (Music is the variety- a hardneck)
- Kale
- Leeks
- Cantaloupe !!!! The first melons. Very sweet. A limited number so show up early to get these.
- Red Onions
- Sweet Onions
- Parsley
- Strawberries
- Green Bell Peppers (and some white and purple too. but same flavor as greens)
- Fingerling Potatoes
- Salad Mix
- Tomatoes
- Zucchini
I’ve had several CSA members mention that maybe the best way to get recipes out and around is for you to email your recipes to me and then I can cut and paste to the blog. Sounds great and easy to me. So please feel free to email any recipes you have.
See you at market!!!!

With putting the recipes on the blog, could you give them their own heading at the top of the page, so it’s just a page full of recipes? Is that what you were planning on doing?
