Farm share and organics delivery
Jul. 6th, 2005 05:24 pmA lot of variety this week.
I changed my Boston Organics delivery to a small box, and either a third or a half fruit (I don't remember). With all the farm produce, the fruit is more useful. And in the summer fruit is more appealing to me, too.
- a head of lettuce (I chose romaine, for variety.)
- half a pound of garlic scapes
- a bunch of new onions with their greens (I chose white over red.)
- two tomatoes
- half a pound of chard or spinach (I chose yellow chard; the colors were separated out.)
- 1.3 pounds of zucchini and/or summer squash (Given the zuke experiment yesterday, I got zukes; I still have some squash left. Oh, and today the zuke bread didn't taste as bitter; I don't know if it's aged well, or what.)
- two pounds of cucumbers (I picked little ones; maybe I'll finally try pickling something.)
- a handful of basil (upped to two as I got my stuff, so now there should be enough for some pesto)
- a stalk of broccoli
- a head of radicchio (Is there anything to do with this other than salad?)

- five slightly green bananas
- an eggplant
- a bag (half a pound?) of green beans
- two zucchinis (one small, one large)
- two onions (I'm glad; I never seem to have enough alliums!)
- two oranges
- three kiwis
- a mango
- four white nectarines (White must be the inside; the outsides are red, almost the same shade as the plums.)
- eight red plums
