About a month or so ago, Tommy found a web site for Ambrose Family Farms, a place on Johns Island. On it, there was a CSA link - community supporting agriculture. For a fee, you could join this CSA and have fresh vegetables brought to several designated delivery sites every Wednesday.
I immediately joined. A handbook was made available on line that explained the plan and gently encouraged the members to try different veggies and that there would be recipes available on their site. This has been so exciting! I have made a green tomato pie, yellow, zucchini and patty-pan (who knew?) squash, eggplant casseroles, baked beets with garlic and olive oil, glazed carrots with fresh basil, and enough tomato sandwiches to sink a ship. And yesterday, an incredibly delicious cantaloupe came in my box.
I found a recipe for a white bean, tomato and kale soup because kale came in the box for two weeks; I have had fresh garlic and green chili peppers a couple of times as well. I always share a bit with Tommy and yesterday took a whole box of cherry tomatoes to Eddie's family. I LOVE Wednesdays.
We are promised seven weeks of the summer growing season, which probably ends sometime this month. I will definitely try to get on the list for the fall. Since becoming a vegetarian, this is the most varied bunch of meals I've eaten. YUM,YUM!! |
