We certainly hope no one has washed away this week with all the rain, but the earth does love it…. and maybe this is the balance for the overly hot days we suffered last month.

It’s already Week 10 and here are your shares:

  • Arugula
  • Green Leaf Lettuce
  • Radish
  • Sungold Tomatoes
  • Cherry Tomatoes
  • Corn
  • Peppers
  • Beefsteak Tomatoes
  • Regular Cucumbers
  • Lemon Cucumbers
  • Zephyr Squash
  • Cabbage

Fruit: Blackberries, Black Plums, Red Plums, White Donut Peaches
Eggs
Cheese: Bier Meck from Finger Lakes Farmstead Cheese

Supper Club is Tonight!

We can’t wait to hear about the fun and good food that went down at the Ted & Amy Supper Club: Paisley Farm CSA Southern Style Dinner! Super partial to Cornbread Salad… maybe we can get a recipe shared, too!

CSA Chat Worth Sharing

We love seeing our members interact with one another as building community is a large part of the CSA experience. Facebook Groups are a great place to create a common location for your site’s members to chat, post questions or food concerns… trouble shooting new items or even recipes they have tried and loved. Recently a back and forth about bell peppers happened on the d.b.a location’s FB page… Information was shared, and now I’m putting it here for the other members… complete with suggested recipes:

Pam: any ideas for green bell peppers???

Claire: Hey there! claire on the farm here. Of course you can eat them raw in salads but sometimes the flavor is not that of red/yellow ones… So cooking them is great! They are part of the New Orleans style “trinity” (onions, celery & green peppe…rs) which are the base of gumbos, and other dishes. They are great with sausages, in pastas with cooked tomatoes and/or in a relish like this! Hope this helps! Bell Pepper and Tomato Relish Recipe at Epicurious.com

Eillen: great stuffed too!

Karol: this stir-fry is to die for, and i don’t see why you couldn’t substitute green peppers for the celery. Stir Fry with Chicken with Peppers

Tiffany: Karol, I made your recipe last night with peppers and it was delicious!

Pam: claire and karol, both recipes look amazing. thank you for taking the time and i’m looking forward to trying both. not to mention all of the gorgeous fruits and vegetables that we picked up today. i ♥ paisley farm.

We *heart* you, too, Pam and others who were up for trying some new bell pepper recipes!

….and in case you were still looking for something to do with Tomatoes & Corn, member Berit Hoff posted this to share, saying this: “….if for some reason anyone’s having trouble using their corn and tomatoes (and have some mint left over) this is beyond delicious! 
I’ve added onions which work well, and I recommend using light coconut milk to keep it from being too overwhelming. “ Tomato, Corn & Potato Curry

Looks great, Thanks members…for the love, support and for enjoying the summer bounty with us,

love,

paisley farms
