After a couple of weeks of being a slacker after vacation, I made it back to the garden to put in a few hours and pick up some of the most recent harvest. There was a selection:
I helped myself to one of these
I didn't take that huge one, but the one I ended up with is a lot bigger than what you generally find at the store. I also took one of these:
Zuccini (yes, I took the big one). And this too:
Giant Cucumber, which I did take. And check out those curly ones. You certainly don't see that at the store!
So, the CSA program to which I belong is obviously awesome. For $50 per year and with at least 25 hours worth of work, I'll be receiving fresh produce until well into November. And with summer veggies the likes of these, my grocery bill is already benefiting! If you haven't already, check out CSA Utah and find a CSA program in your area. Get out there and support local agriculture!
