8 oz mesclun

bunch couve (Portuguese collards)+

*Some full shares are getting strawberries this week. If we have strawberries next week, we will put those in the full shares that did not get them this week. If the strawberries are done, we will make sure you get other berries later in the summer.

** The small shares that did not get strawberries last week, are getting them this week.

+The kale and couve had some aphids on them in the field. They have been washed off, but we would suggest washing them again just to make sure they're clean. We had a difficult year with aphids in the greenhouses and it seems some of them made it out into the field. We are using organic methods to control them, and now that the plants are actually uncovered, the natural predators will be able to eat the aphids as well.

CUTTING GARDEN: This week, in addition to the perennial herbs that are still available, you may cut a few sprigs of parsley. The parsley is just a little further down the hill in the cutting garden. You cut the bottom leaves of the parsley, leaving the new growth and crown intact. The parsley is still relatively small, so go easy on them! Also, please be very mindful not to step on the other beds in the garden as there are many small herbs planted in them.
