As the veggies have gotten more familiar, we’ve been able to eat a lot more of them in any given week. Â We ate pretty much everything this week. Â Last weekend we actually bought a bunch of small cucumbers and pickled them! Â Hopefully you’ll be seeing more about this later.
This week we took part in Harmony Valley’s Produce Plus program. Â They just started offering it this week, but you are able to purchase quantities of certain vegetables that they have a lot of sitting around the farm. Â Most of them are “seconds” which have minor defects that prevent them from being sold on the market. Â Instead of letting them go to waste Harmony Valley is allowing their members to purchase them at reasonable rate. We bought 25 pounds of tomatoes for $25. Yikes! Â We hope to spend some time this weekend canning them.
Wish us luck!
