Good Monday Morning, SLO Veg Foodie Friends & Families! 🌿

I’m here this morning with my cup of SV Signature Coffee, looking over this week’s harvest box and thinking, this is going to be a great foodie week!

I love this part of the week when everything starts coming together and I get to see what our farmers are harvesting and what’s making its way into your boxes. Looking at this week’s selection feels a little like walking through a really good farmers market—so many beautiful things to choose from and so many ways to enjoy them.

There are plenty of goodies for salads, grilling, roasting, snacking, salsa, pasta, or simply eating just as they are. And of course, the peaches, nectarines and plums are always a happy sight in my kitchen. 🍑

I’m especially excited about the fennel this week. I’m already thinking about roasting mine with a little olive oil, garlic and fresh cracked pepper. Simple. That’s usually where I end up anyway!

And this weeks “Fresh Fish of the Week” is Swordfish steaks. I’m already imagining that beautiful swordfish grilled alongside some of these fresh vegetables, with a squeeze of lime over the top. Now that’s a summer dinner! 🐟🍋‍🟩

I choose the items in your harvest boxes based on what’s beautiful, fresh and coming from our farmers right now. If you’d like to add a little more to your week, our Marketplace has fresh fish, Etto pasta, artisan cheeses, breads, fresh juice and plenty of other goodies to round things out.

And remember, not everything needs a recipe. Sometimes you wash it, cut it up and eat it. Sometimes it goes straight on the grill. Sometimes you make something wonderful, and sometimes you open the refrigerator and figure it out from there. 😂

That’s the fun of having really good food around.

We’re ready and excited to see what comes through our doors. I hope opening your box gives you that same little feeling you get walking through a farmers market—“Ooh, look at this!”

Thank you for being here, for supporting SLO Veg, and for supporting the farmers who work so hard to grow all of this beautiful food. I appreciate you more than you know.

Have a fabulous week ahead, everyone!

Cheers, Rachael & SLO Veg Team 💚
