Garlic Scapes : 

- Just Like the garlic clove, garlic scares have great detoxification, anti inflammatory, and nutritional value. 

-They are high in vitamin C, calcium, and help strengthen the immune system

PREVENTION- Garlic Scapes help prevent heart disease, cancer, and high blood pressure.

-try it in story fry , hummus or chopped salad

Garlic Scape Pesto:

1 cup of basil, 1 cup garlic scape(or substitute with two full cups of basil), 1/2tsp sea salt and black pepper, 1/4 cup pine nuts, 1/4 cup parmesan cheese, 1/2 cup of extra virgin olive oil, juice of 1/2 lemon (optional)

Place the ingredients in a food processor. Add salt, pepper, pine nuts and cheese.

Snow Peas: 

-PACKED with Vitamin C

-Great source of vitamin A and fiber

-May even help with fertility!

-These are a must try for stir fry. 

Also in your basket- Chard, Kale, Lettuce mix with edible Nasturtium Flowers, Lettuce head, cabbage or golden beets

 

With Chard and Kale we cut the leaf from the stems. The stems are edible but take longer to sauté then the greens. Chard takes about 3-5 minutes and kale takes 5-8 minutes to salute and be ready for eating. The stems can be sauce longer with your other choice veggies. Kale is great in a salad using vinegars to wilt it -google balsamic vinegar,kale, parmesan, walnuts -or some nuts and you will find variety of choices for kale vinegar salad. Greens can be stored in plastic bags or your favorite tupperware to prolong shelf life. We give all crops harvested (except tomatoes, some herbs, and a few misc others) a cool down bath in water to help hold the shelf life of the greens. Kale and chard often goes in our egg breakfasts with many other ingredients.

**PLEASE REMEMBER TO RETURN YOUR BASKETS WHEN RETURING TO PICK UP LOCATION**

####Tickets are still available for the  Dinners on the Farm with Braise Restaurant July 30th and August 13th with musical guest The Freques! ####
