Hi SLO Veg Family & Friends 🌿

We’re excited to bring in the first pickings from our farmers fields and share what’s just come into season. Our farmers have been hard at work, and we couldn’t be happier to welcome these early arrivals: Brook’s cherries, crisp red leaf and romaine lettuce, fresh purple, green and white cauliflower, vibrant purple and green kohlrabi, organic fennel, and our very first harvest of Brussels sprouts.

I have to give a special spotlight to Brook’s cherries—these are such a fleeting treat. Their season is short, which makes every bite that much sweeter. We’ve just added cherries to our marketplace, so you can easily add extra in your box this week. I truly recommend grabbing them while you can, because they won’t be around for long.

Looking ahead, Javier with Martinon Farms has his fields well underway with summer plantings, and it’s so exciting to see what’s coming. His zucchini and yellow squash is coming along nicely, with harvest expected in about 5-6 weeks. The roma and round tomatoes are taking their time in the sun and should be ready in roughly 60-75 days—definitely worth the wait.  Antonio with Costa May Farms is starting their tomatillos, bell peppers along with spicy peppers. We’ll see them closer to end of June first of July.

We have several simple tips and recipes to help spark ideas, entice your taste buds, and inspire you to get creative in the kitchen with what’s in your box.

Be sure to explore the marketplace while you’re there—we’ve added new items that are ready to shop now, so you can mix and match and create a box that’s perfectly suited to what you love most.

Thank you, as always, for supporting our farmers and being part of this seasonal journey with us. Wishing you all a fabulous week! 

Warmly,
Rachael & the SLO Veg Team đź’š
