October 13 2010 Week 19


I have often thought to take a photo of the weekly spread and finally did it. These food items are truly beautiful to me and add to my enjoyment of Autumn. The colors and textures fit perfectly in the season.
This week CSA will be enjoying summer squash and winter squash. The Patty Pans and zukes are familiar. The Delicata may be new to some as it is to me. We have yet to eat one. Sweet tasting is the word on the street.
The greens look awesome with Swiss Chard just bursting with bright orange,pink and red. I realize this picture does not capture that statement, but it's true. Green and red Bell peppers, potatoes(some got the Gold, others the Red) and two kinds of tomatoes finish of this weeks installment of Farm Fresh Produce.
We are proud of the quality of food we have grown this year. I have been pleased every week at harvest time and delighted when doing the devy for the Shareholders. This marks the second to last CSA I will contribute to for the Twenty-ten season. Next week will be very exciting as a dear friend will be visiting and helping us for a day or two. Then that means the end of my involvement, for my family and I have travel plans and then CSA will conclude.
Eat up! Enjoy! And Thank You!
P S- I keep getting a thrill looking at the photo. I am saying,"look what I did! I grew that!" Not by my self, of course. I assisted Farmer Drew to my great delight. Thank You DREW!!!
