We are in the middle of summer – my favorite time of year! Our tiny little garden plot is producing a copious quantity of grape tomatoes. Joe, my husband of 24 years, says “It has only taken me 51 years to connect with my farming roots. How cool is it that I can grow tomatoes????” Cool indeed! While he’s in charge of the little raised bed, I focus on our pots of herbs. We have basil and rosemary on the front walk. For lunch one day last week, I created a delicious salad of chopped romaine, sliced boiled egg, a handful of our homegrown grape tomatoes, a sprinkling of shredded basil, and tiny balls of fresh mozzarella marinated in herbs and olive oil purchased from the deli at the grocery store. I drizzled on a perfect measure of good balsamic vinegar, and Joe and I had a toothsome lunch!
Next up, for my soccer playing sons – pasta with crushed grape tomatoes and garlic accompanied by homemade foccacia bread made with fresh rosemary and olive oil.
We hope that all of you are having a happy summer and enjoying the bounties of the garden. We thank you for supporting locally grown agriculture, and for choosing to do business with us. Have a great Sunday, and we’ll see you on Wednesday.
Thanks,
Beverly
