2019 Harvest 12

Howdy folks and welcome to week 12! We hope you all are staying cool (if that’s even possible) in this heat! And while the temps are a bit on the toasty side we’re stoked that the tomatoes, eggplants, peppers and corn are thriving!!! We’re just around the corner from having those readily availabe in the shares. It’s been such a slow start to the summer crops this season but I assure you they’re coming along!

This week were excited to debut the first of the summer green beans. They are crisp, tender and absolutely divine. I love blanching them for a minute or two in boiling water and then tossing them with butter and a whole bunch of chopped herbs. They’re also great on the grill or even quick pickled (with the dill!) for dilly beans. Anyhow, we’re stoked and hope you enjoy them as much as we do.

Have a great week everyone. Happy cooking and eating!

Your farmers,
A & T

2019 Harvest 11

Howdy folks and welcome to week 11 of your Tumbleweed Farm CSA. We hope you’ve been enjoying this warm summer weather. We’re excited to see our summer crops finally starting to pop! Tomatoes and peppers are still a ways out but they’re finally super happy with the hot weather up here in Parkdale. The plants are healthy but were just a few weeks behind from last year due to the mild days (and very cold evenings). But rest assured, there’s lots of tasty summer bounty heading your way soon. Think corn, eggplants, peppers, tomatoes, melons, potatoes, garlic onions and more!

In the meantime we hope you enjoy this week’s bounty. Happy cooking and eating everyone!

Howdy folks and welcome to week 10 of your Tumbleweed CSA. This week’s box smell pretty damn fresh! Between the dill, basil, onions and fennel this might be the most potent box to date! And because it’s a hot week I think you’ll find this week’s haul pretty easy to use up in this weather. Simple kale salads, slaw, radishes on toast, grilled meat with lots of fresh herbs. It’s a fresh and tasty week and we hope you enjoy the bounty! Stay cool out there and see you all soon!
