Delivery July 29

This week, I am going to do things a little differently. I am going to let you pack your own bags! I will have the veggies set out with the number you can take and you can choose your veggies and pack your own bag. This is due to space getting tighter in the van and it is easier to haul them down in boxes of the same vegetables, and it will save some time for me~about 3 hours of packing. I think you will enjoy getting to pack your own bags too!

This week you will get the following:
  • tomatoes
  • green peppers
  • summer squash
  • cucumbers
  • bouquet of flowers

The amounts will be determined when I get it all counted.

Important!!! Next week, August 5 delivery will be at the movie theater parking lot across the street because there will be a softball tournament. If you have any questions call me at 573-694-5986. Also, if there is every a very bad thunderstorm, I may also be at the theater parking lot since I have been told that the Larry May Park is a lightening magnet.

Delivery Week of July 15

This week is a great one! Here is what you will be receiving:

Everyone gets the following (full share people are full portions, half share are receiving half portions):
  • jalapenos
  • green peppers
  • tomatoes
  • summer squash
  • cucumbers
  • basil
  • flower bouquet

I recommend that you refrigerate everything but the tomatoes and basil when you get home. Some of you have asked for suggestions for using the basil. I suggest making bruschetta with the tomatoes or putting it in a nice soup. Pesto is always an option, but the amount you are getting may not be enough.

Here is a link to a plethora of zucchini/summer squash recipes:
