Vegetable Share Launch and Harvesting Fall Tomatoes
This week we delivered the first round of shares for our Community Vegetable Share Program! We still have a few spots available so if you’re a Jordan Ranch resident you can sign up for the remaining 5 weeks’ worth of shares here. Shares are delivered every Tuesday from now through Tuesday, December 17th. Each share includes 5-7 produce items hand chosen and delivered directly to your home on Tuesday afternoons by farmers Matt and Anne. If you struggle to find time to make it by the Farm Stand, this is a great alternative since we bring your produce directly to you! If you’re a Jordan Ranch resident and would love to learn more, head here.
Fall tomatoes have arrived at the Farm Stand! Since tomatoes store best outside the chill of the fridge, you’ll find them on the table next to the iPad. We have two cherry varieties (Cherry Bomb and Sungold) in addition to one slicing variety (Early Girl). These tomatoes have great flavor and we’ve been enjoying snagging some to snack on while we harvest. The cherry tomatoes are perfect for salads while the slicers make a great addition to sandwiches and burgers.
While the produce in our self-serve coolers is available 24/7, every Saturday our farmers set up on the porch for a more traditional Farm Stand. The tables are lined with a beautiful assortment of produce from the farm and our farmers are present to help with your purchases and answer any questions you might have, including recipe suggestions! This in-person Farm Stand takes place every Saturday from 9am-noon. Can’t make it? You are always welcome to pop by the coolers whenever it’s convenient for you. Simply choose what you need and pay with a credit card on the iPad.
In Season at the Farm Stand: Cherry Tomatoes, Early Girl Tomatoes, French Breakfast Radishes, Hakurei Turnips, Red Beets, Arugula, Salad Mix, Dino Kale, Curly Kale, Mustard Greens, Collard Greens, Komatsuna, Baby Bok Choy, Swiss Chard, Baby Broccoli, Roselle Greens, Roselle Pods, Long Beans, Okra, Asian Eggplant, and Korean Melon.
