Growing Together :  Availability for July 22nd


Hope everyone had a great week! We keep hoping these small bits of rain will turn into big bits of rain with all the heat we’ve had! But the crops are still hanging in there and looking good! Our tomatoes are really hitting their stride – we’ve got some beautiful brandywine and red slicers and several varieties of super sweet cherries!

If you haven’t tried the long beans yet – they’re great blanched and served in a cold bean salad or sauteed as a side.
The thai basil adds a great sweet anise flavor to dishes and we’ve also got citrusy Hibiscus leaves (“lalchun” in Nepali and “chin baung” in Burmese) which is often called “sour leaf” for it’s sour taste. Great raw in salads or cooked as a green!

As always, we welcome feedback and hope you are enjoying the veggies!

Happy weekend,
the Growing Together team
