csa week two and sweet garden helpers

it's summer alright! we went from nice and moderate to scorching temps in the mid to upper 90's! i'm starting to wonder why i love summer so much? oh yeah, the fruits and veggies! what a nerd.=)

muth family farm's organic csa week two: frisee endive, baby bok choy, lettuce, cabbage, broccoli, beets, basil, and green onions (they also offer their organic strawberries for $4 a quart.) 

this week i brought bub and ev to get the produce. (i love that shot of evie's little hand picking the purple pansy.) then we went to the community garden and they had the time of their lives choosing from a wide assortment of barrels and watering cans to drench the plants. good thing because i bet they're baking under that blazing sun today! thanks jt and evolet!


coming soon: june community garden update and a scrumptious dairy-free "dreamy" broccoli soup!

    1. yup, we grilled it and it was so good! that's baby bok choy, we grilled that too.

      i'm the same way! i can't handle extreme temperatures. i'd like it a nice 76 degrees every day.=)
