Welcome Back BOF Family!
Hello 2018 Broken Oak Farm CSA customers! First shares are almost here. This has been another strange spring in terms of weather, but we have food ready to share and that’s what is important! Several things are just coming on so they will be in limited quantities, but we can’t resist giving you things like tomatoes and strawberries in May! In addition to a few of those there will be: basil, mint, butter head lettuce, kale, salad mix, broccoli, a few garlic scapes, baby chard, and fava beans. I wanted to get into the fava bed tonight to make sure there are enough, but the weather had other plans! I’m fairly certain there are, but if not there will be some dry beans included from last winter’s harvests. There is a lot of basil, which makes our pesto-loving family very happy. This is our go-to pesto recipe. I substitute walnuts for pine nuts quite often. If you’ve never enjoyed garlic scapes before you are in for a treat. Here is a great blog post with some information about them.
We are excited to see you all at the farm Friday and we are looking forward to a great 2018 CSA season with you all! Thank you for joining us.
