Farm share, week 11
Aug. 24th, 2005 05:44 pm- two hot peppers (I got ones that were narrow, long, and red, but there were a variety of shorter and greener ones.)
- two sweet peppers (long red ones as well, but larger)
- a watermelon (I took a yellow one yet again.)
- 2.5 pounds of tomatoes (I got a mix of brandywine and 'plain' ones.)
- two pounds of potatoes (All with red skins, but some are white inside, and others are yellow.)
- a head of celery
- a bunch of edamame (still on the stalks)
- a head of garlic
- a stalk of broccoli
ETA, 0830 8/25 Red Fire Farm won some Massachusetts tomato prizes: best slicing tomatoes (Jet Star), best cherry tomatoes (Matt's Wild Cherry), and second best heirloom tomatoes (Brandywine). This weekend is the farm's tomato festival, if anyone else out there is a tomato addict...
Plus, I didn't know MA is 18th in tomato production (52 million pounds). I don't tend to think of MA being a big agricultural state, really.
