What's in this week's Box
Grown on our farm using organic farming methods:
carrots, salad mix, cauliflower, potatoes, Delicata squash, cucumbers,green beans and cherry tomatoes.

The apples are grown by Mike Cirone in See Canyon...pesticide free.

The Delicata squash is delicious roasted in the oven. Cut the squash in half lengthwise, remove the seeds, then roast in the oven at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes until soft. The skin is thin and becomes edible when cooked. Another way to cook the Delicata is to make "squash rings". Cut into 1/2 inch wide rings, scoop out the seeds from the center, brush on some olive oil and sprinkle on a little seasonings, spread out on a cookie sheet single layer, roast in the oven until the rings become brown and crispy...the kids will think they are onion rings!
