August 2 CSA share

What’s fresh off the farm this week from Lancaster Farm Fresh Coop?  Come and see...

    3 green peppers grown by Meadow Valley Organics
    1 sugar baby watermelon grown by Green Acres Organics
    1 pint grape tomatoes grown by Farmdale Organics
    4 heirloom tomatoes grown by Green Valley Organics
    2 Cubanella peppers grown by Green Valley Organics
    5 lbs potatoes grown by Scarecrow Hill Farm
    3 yellow squash grown by Green Valley Organics
    2 green cucumbers grown by Elm Tree Organics
    2 candy onions grown by Meadow Valley Organics

Amy, our friendly neighborhood coop representative, suggests making watermelon margaritas with the watermelon in this week’s share - a woman after my own heart!  Pass the tequila!

It’s been so hot here in Philly the last few days I thought I might use the onions, cucumbers, peppers, and tomatoes for gazpacho - nothing beats sitting out on the back porch with a cold bowl of gazpacho and some good bread from Le Bus!  Of course, the tomatoes look so delicious that they may not last long enough in my house to make it into the soup!
