What's in this week's Box
Grown on our farm using organic farming methods:
carrots, green beans, zucchini, onions, potatoes and cucumbers.
The tomatoes are grown by Bautista Farms in Arroyo Grande, pesticide free.
The avocados are grown by David Righetti in SLO.
The peaches are grown by Mike Cirone in See Canyon...pesticide free.
Use the Sierra Gold
potatoes for baked potatoes, mashed, fried or roasted...creamy yellow insides with a russet skin on the outside.
Grill up the
zucchini on your bar-b-que...slice the zucchini lengthwise into strips, coast with olive oil and seasonings, grill over high heat until brown.
How about trying something different with the
peaches this week....Bar-B-Q peaches!
Cut the peach in half, remove the pit, brush on a little cooking oil, put the half peaches on a hot bar-b-q grill for 5 minutes on each side ( until slightly browned ). Add some ice cream or whipped cream. A new dessert creation!
