Ingredients

Onions

It is our mission to have a member of the allium family available each week of the season starting with scallions, moving into fresh onions like cipollini, then storage onions, finishing with garlic and leeks.  

Zucchini

Long green and sometimes yellow fruits are harvested for most of the season. Great on the grill, or baked in a bread.

Dill

This herb is another we grow a lot of.  It is great to flavor vegetables, eggs, and salad dressings. We let some of the plants flower so those who like to make pickles will have dill flower heads available.

Herbs

We also grow a few beds of perennial herbs. In those beds you will find Parsley, Thyme, Oregano, Sage, Rosemary, Lemon Balm and a few others. These are available throughout the season for you to pick.
