Message from our farmers
The shares this week include an Asian water spinach called ong choy. It grows under tropical conditions in the greenhouse during July and August. With the extra high temperatures we’ve had this year, this crop is doing very well. Use it as you would a spinach, either raw or sauteed, and be sure to include the stems. They are hollow and as a result are lightly crunchy, adding a delicious finish to your salad.
You will also find some tomatoes in your box this week. They are another crop enjoying the warmer temperatures. We are about two weeks ahead of schedule in their harvest, so hopefully you can enjoy them longer this year.
Be well,
Fred and Karen
