Dear CSA Member,
The rain has finally left for a few days. We are hoping for a good 4 day stretch of sunshine. The tomatoes are just starting to ripen and the plants are looking great despite all the rain we have had. The sunshine should make for a good tomato harvest in the coming weeks. This weeks list will come with a lot of updates. Due to all of the rain, we have had it is hard to determine the harvest. An update will be sent out this weekend.
This week you will be getting Amethyst Basil. Amethyst basil can be used the same way you would use green basil. You can make an Amethyst basil vinegar to use in your favorite salad dressing recipe or drizzle on fresh bruschetta. Pairs well with sunflower seed oil. To make the vinegar add a couple sprigs of basil put in a jar and close. Let sit for about a week until the vinegar turns a purple color. Bruschetta Recipe Click Here
