Produce
1 pound assorted squash
Summer squash is deliciously nutty and firm—a true classic summer squash. Perfect for sautéing, grilling, roasting, stir frying, zoodle-ing, you name it.
1 pound
Tomatillos are finally here with their tangy, delicious, crisp sparkling and acidic selves. They are delightful raw and cooked. Cooking tomatillos mellows out their acidity and brings out a more savory side. Current favorite ways to eat tomatillos: in salsas (fresh or roasted), vinaigrettes or braised with chicken thighs to form a lighter stew.

Thai basil has an anise scent and slightly spicy (but not hot) licorice flavor. It is the perfect companion to stir fries, noodle dishes, salads and works beautifully as a garnish to many soups like pho. To ensure its longevity: pop it on a windowsill or the counter and change the water occasionally.
1 pound
Tasty Jade cucumbers are delicious, thin-skinned, minimally-seeded cucumbers. When we first tried this cucumber, we were blown away by how crisp and sweet it was. This is an absolute delight eaten raw in all kinds of cucumber salads or just on its own if you are looking for a fast snack.

(Aka Scallions) They’re delicious, they’re versatile—what’s not to love? Green onions are astonishingly useful and have a slightly milder taste than onions. They are perfect as garnishes, in stir fries, soups, salads (and salad dressings). The possibilities are endless.
1 pound
Suyo Long cucumbers are a thin-skin, delicious cucumber variety from China. They are sweet and mild and perfect for eating raw (hello, all varieties of cucumber salad!!) and also pickle beautifully. They do have spines on the skin, which, if that is not your preference, can be quickly removed by lightly peeling them (You can leave the rest of the skin because it is so tender).

Lettuce draws you in with its soft, dense frills, but really blows you away with its tenderness and superior flavor. It’s mild, almost nutty flavor shines in salads with all kinds of dressings. Protip: add some homemade breadcrumbs to amp up the texture in your salads.

I would like to personally thank our climate for allowing cilantro to grow beautifully. Cilantro’s fresh, bright, citrusy flavor is so welcome in winter dishes. It is beautiful in zesty salad dresses, in salads and salsas, or as a welcome garnish on a plethora of dishes.

Local, recently harvested garlic is truly something special. The taste is unparalleled in its brightness, freshness and potency. But, does garlic even need a description? It is both a herb and, I’d argue, a lifestyle. As a garlic girl myself, I put garlic in almost everything—stir fries, soups, stews, salads, salad dressings, breads, dumplings, etc. Grab yourself a head (or 100) and live that garlic folk life!

32oz milk jug
1 bar of soap; option of rosemary or calendula
This soap is made with Happy Acre Farm olive oil! It is gentle and nourishing to the skin and the lather is quite nice. As a bar soap snob, this soap absolutely passes muster and is a delight to use.
Flowers
A lovely arrangement of our seasonal flowers. Local, seasonal flowers are truly magical in their personality, freshness, longevity and fragrance. Change their water and re-trim their stems every so often and they will last many days.
1 lb farmer’s choice
We are so excited to have potatoes this summer! They’ve been so much fun to plant and grow and they're even better to EAT! Roast them, mash them, fry them, salad them, chip them, dauphinoise them—the list could go on forever because, as we all know, they are truly versatile and delicious.
