Summer is here in full force on the farm! The summer vegetables are all producing or nearly ready. If fact, our tomatoes are ahead of the game this year. You will see some tomatoes in the trade in bin this week with tomatoes for everyone starting in the next week or two. Later this week I will be tackling the garlic harvest. So far, the garlic looks great and once it is cured you will see some regularly in your shares. 

We had a lovely 3 days away in Frontenac Provincial Park: the weather was fantastic, there were hardly any insects, and our site had a nice little rocky beach and swimming area. Now, back to reality!

Since the zucchini went into overdrive while we had our week off, you will receive extra zucchini in your shares this week. Don't worry, I won't force this much zucchini on you every week! For now, dig out your zucchini recipes. 

Zucchini and summer squash are always plentiful in mid-summer and it is wise to have lots of different ways to use them at the ready! Here are a few more recipe ideas:

​Gluten Free Chocolate Zucchini Cake
​Zucchini Pancakes
Baked Parmesan Zucchini
​Shaved Zucchini Salad with Pinenuts
