Maple Creek Farm Share ~ Week 11

Wow, is the only word I can use to describe this week's share!  Look at all of that goodness!  Melons, tomatoes, onions, squash, green beans, corn, peppers, kohlrabi (yeah!), basil and cabbages.  And don't they all look gorgeous!?!



The kids are back at school, and although I love them to pieces, I was very excited to pick up the share without them because their job was to pick out our share of tomatoes and they always liked to find the smallest ones they could.  It was nice to have the freedom to choose my own size tomatoes this week!

The tomatoes alone make this week's share worth the money we spent on the share.  Last weekend at Whole Foods my husband saw an old heirloom tomato that he wanted to try.  At $3.99/lb that one tomato cost us about $7!

I hope you are all enjoying the bounty of the season as well!  Guten Appetit!

Share Roundup, Week 8, 9 & 10

August has gone so fast.  I haven't forgotten about taking my share pictures, I just haven't gotten around to posting them.  Here are the pictures from the last three weeks.  Week 8's picture is a little weak because I was in Traverse City  and my husband picked up the share and took the picture with his Blackberry.
