Farm share, week 8

[magid]

Lots of stuff this week.

• 3.5 pounds of mixed summer squash and cucumbers (I got a lot of pickling cukes (I've been thinking of lots of cukely dishes, plus, maybe pickles), some small zukes, and a couple of small two-toned squashes, yellow and light green.)
  
• 6 ears of corn (I think not from this farm; I don't think he grows corn, plus it was in those plastic mesh bags that onions come in.)
  
• 1.5 pounds of tomatoes
  
• an eighth of a pound of basil (except that it was gone by the time I got there. *sigh*)
  
• a bunch of beets (They had red, golden, and chioggia; I got red, and golden to make up for the lack of basil.)
  
• a bunch of onions with green tops
  
• a head of garlic with green top
  
• an eggplant (There were the dark ones and the violet ones; I got the dark kind (a second one because I ran into friends who gave me theirs).)
  
• a head of kamutsuna, the mystery greens from last week (which I'm spelling as it was written, but has no hits on Google at all, so I suspect it's got another name. No idea what, though.)
  
• a bunch of chard (I chose red; there was also white- or yellow-stemmed.)
  
  
• fruit share: a pint of blueberries
  
• a pound of beans (green or purple, except that only green were left by the time I got there.)

Small box, 2/3 veg.

• half a pound (?) of green beans (It never rains but it pours... maybe I should get dill and try making dilly beans?) (MA grown)
  
• half a pound of mushrooms
  
• 6 ounces of blueberries
  
• a large-ish cucumber (MA grown)
  
• four zucchinis (MA grown)
  
• three large-ish onions
  
• five plums
  
• four oranges
  
• a mango (Neat: the info sheet says that the mango is from Haiti, grown in people's back yards. They're Madame Francis variety, which is apparently only available in the US from Haiti.)
