July 12th Pickup

Hello CSA and Friends of Shalom Orchard,

Well, it is finally hot!  No complaining from us after all the rain, rot
and slugs! I am continuing to use this “reply all” format as my regular
computer is out for repairs.

It looks like we will have available this week:  ( I don;t have the prices
yet)

some brocolli
Napa cabbage
Primax early cabbage (a “regular” cabbage)
garlic scapes
lettuce mix
peas
beet greens
scallions
raspberries!!
chicken
eggs

The cherries will be ripe soon, too.

For those thinking ahead, our blueberries will probably begin at the end
of July.  I have heard that some berries are already ripening in other
areas, but our barren is low and hydrated by the early morning fogs.  This
means our berries will have time to ripen more slowly and develop higher
sugar levels – yum!  Don’t forget to get your frozen berry order in early
as it is first come, first served.

For those of you who skipped the July 5 pickup, please keep track and
remind us of when you would like to make that up.

We look forward to seeing you Wed., 3-5:30.

Thank you,

Charlotte and Jim
