Dear CSA Member, This week we are harvesting the first of the eggplant and we are always excited to see the change from spring to summers harvest. This week you will be getting cucumbers, summer squash, and early spring cabbage. This cabbage is so tender and very universal. It can be made into a slaw or if your brave enough (like I am) to turn on the oven... try a stuffed cabbage! We hope you enjoy the new items in this week's box! See below for great recipes and storing tips.
Sincerely, Candice for Everyone at Stoneledge Farm
