A bowl of cherries
This week, you'll find cherries in your box! I know, they probably won't last long enough, but if you love cherries and ice cream, take the time with someone you love, and make this cherry-lavender ice cream. We got your cherries from our friends at Tonnemaker Orchards. These are certified organic Chelan cherries. Enjoy!
The farm is in high gear with very long days of harvesting and seeding and market preparations. Have you ever wondered how soon after harvest you get your produce? The answer is, very soon! Hours! Some of your veggies were growing in the field 3 hours before we delivered it to you! Other than growing it yourself, you really don't find that quality of freshness anywhere else!
This week, you will receive English peas. These are also known as Shelling Peas, which as the name implies, means the shell is inedible, and should be removed. The sweet pea inside is well worth the effort. It's very sweet and versatile in pastas, soups or simply plain.
This week's fresh produce will include..
Small:1/2# Salad, 1/4# spinach, 1# cherries, 1 bunch carrots, 1/2pint raspberries, 1.5# shelling peas,1 bunch onions.
Med: 3/4# Salad, 1/4# spinach, 2# shelling peas, 1.5# cherries, 1 bunch carrots, 1 pint raspberries, 1 bunch onions, 1 head lettuce, 1 bunch parsley.
