Approaching Autumn

Harvest #19 (Week A) should include broccoli, cabbage, potatoes, tomatoes, butternut, kale, lettuce, garlic, onions, leeks, chard, turnips, radishes, beets, okra, hot peppers, sweet peppers, eggplant, and chives. Some items may be a choice and may not be available during all pick up times. U-pick should include cherry tomatoes and herbs.

This year's broccoli haul will probably be less epic than the past couple of seasons due to a rough stretch of weather in July, but we're still hopeful for a few good weeks of broccoli harvest. Also, the crop is under attack from a multitude of insect pests including the harlequin bug, cabbage looper, imported cabbageworm, cross-striped cabbageworm, and flea beetles. Soaking your broccoli in salty water will help remove the creatures prior to cooking.
