5 garlic scapes*

1 bunch chard

4oz bag lettuce mix

4oz bag mesclun

*Garlic scapes are the flower-frond of the garlic plant which is cut to 

encourage the growth of the bulb. You can use them in the same way you 

use garlic, and are great sauteed with greens. A once-in-a-season treat.

Small shares: Sorry we don't have radishes for you yet; our first bed 

had poor germination. But the next bed looks great and you will have 

radishes next week.

CUTTING GARDEN: The herb garden is now open! We moved the herb garden 

this year. If you are facing the entrance to the barn, the herbs are to 

your right just past and above the large oak tree. Everything is 

labelled. Please be carefull to walk in the pathways and not the beds. 

This week you may take small sprigs of any of the following: sage, 

parsley, thyme, oregano, summer savory, and leaf fennel. You may cut 

bunches of chives.

*Crop update: So we were supposed to have more broccoli and cauliflower for the last few weeks. Our mid-summer planting of 600 or so plants, was razed by woodchucks the day after planting. Fortunately, they only ate the top leaves leaving the crowns of the plants intact. But this set the crop back, and although we no have big beautiful plants in the field, they have only just begun to develop crowns. We're hoping to have some for mid-November winter shares, but a hard freeze might destroy the crop.

CUTTING GARDEN: Please cut large bouquets of flowers. Some herbs were bitten by frost, but many are still healthy and ready to cut, especially cilantro. The hot pepper plants were also bitten by frost, but many of the hot peppers are still great — please harvest a handful.

We did get a frost or two here over the last week; a bit earlier than we've grown accustomed to. Some things were destroyed, such as the field tomatoes, whereas other crops were just fine. We'll have a lot of great veggies for you over the coming weeks, especially greens, roots and winter squashes.
