Dear CSA Members, A rainbow of color appears in your Crop Shares this week. Its peak time for crops on the farm where summer crops coalesce with the first fall crops and the harvest is COLORFUL! Smokey conditions delayed the ripening of red, yellow, and orange tomatoes and peppers two weeks ago, but tomatoes are back now. Green and purple kales and rainbow chard are about to return. In between we have a strong harvest of cucumbers. Purple, red and white potatoes are getting lifted from the ground. The last of the green and striped zucchini and a couple of weeks of short-window crops like tomatillos and green beans are here. Gold and red onions are half way in for drying down. Flower-growing-working-member-friend Stacy visits the farm often and made beautiful boquets for the farm pick up site. Between Iris and Stacy we've had bouquets at the farm pick up site for sale for several weeks-- we may bring flowers to another site soon. U-pick offering: If you would like to pick your own flowers or vegetable crops, please sign up for a U-Pick for CSA members time slot here. We are offering two Friday morning u-pick time slots and two Tuesday morning CSA harvest helper drop-in slots for now. Space is more limited on Tuesday, sign up soon. U-pick flowers, basil, corn stalks for decorating, and maybe more are available. The first bouquet of anything is complimentary and beyond that we'll have reasonable u-pick pricing listed with a QR code and cash box for you to pay on site.

What's In My Box? The difference between small and fulls this week is that smalls have less weight of corn, poblano peppers, zucchini, yellow onions and green beans. Small shares have little gem lettuce and no tomatillos this week. small share/ full share Zucchini ~1 ct/2 ct Yellow Onions ~2 ct/ 3 ct Celery 1 ct Head lettuce 1 ct little gem (smalls) / butterhead (fulls) Poblano Peppers 2 ct/ 3 ct Jalapeno Peppers 2 ct Melon 1 ct watermelon or cantaloupe Slicer Cucumber ~ 1 ct Tomatillo 1/2 lb (fulls) yellow, sweet ripe tomatillo Green Beans 3/4 lb (smalls)/ 1 lb (fulls) Sweet Corn 2 ct/ 3ct sweet corn sometimes gets corn borers that eat the very top of the ears but leave the rest in perfect condition. It's a common and frustrating issue that causes many farms to discontinue growing it. We apply beneficial insects to the field to combat the borer, which helps, but sometimes they get to the corn regardless. Instead of wasting the ears with the tip damage, we chop the tops for our own use, for chefs to process, and for CSA at a reduced value. It's still sooo delicious.

Recipes we love Zucchini Butter Pasta Recipe and photo from smitten kitchen submitted by. CSA member Jennifer H. Thanks! This is such an interesting and EASY way to use up zucchini for a light summer meal. 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more for pasta water, and to taste 8 ounces (225 grams) spaghetti, cooked al dente 1 cup (235 ml) pasta water, reserved 1 1/4 pounds (570 grams) zucchini, trimmed, coarsely grated 6 tablespoons (85 grams) unsalted butter 4 garlic cloves, minced 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or more to taste 1/2 cup (45 grams) grated parmesan Handful fresh basil leaves, cut into thin ribbons Boil your spaghetti in well-salted water until it’s 1 minute shy of fully cooked. Before you drain it, reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water and set it aside. Melt butter in your empty pan over medium-high heat and add the garlic, stirring it into the butter for one minute before adding the zucchini, salt, and red pepper. Cook the zucchini, stirring from time to time, for 13 to 15 minutes. It will first let off a puddle liquid, the liquid will cook off, and the zucchini will become soft and concentrated. If the zucchini begins to brown, reduce the heat slightly. Stir frequently for 2 more minutes, chopping it down into smaller bits with the edge of your spoon or spatula, until it reaches an almost spreadable consistency. Really Good Vegan Broccoli Salad Recipe and photo from rainbow plant life 1 large head of broccoli (1 ½ pounds or 680g) 1 medium fennel bulb, very thinly sliced (optional, see note 1) 1 large handful of flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil ½ cup (40g) panko breadcrumbs or homemade GF breadcrumbs ½ cup (70g) roasted almonds or pistachios, chopped (see note 3 for nut-free sub) Dressing 1 to 2 fresno peppers, thinly sliced (2 for a good level of heat) OPTIONAL 3 tablespoons golden raisins (or brown / Thompson raisins), chopped 3 tablespoons maple syrup or agave nectar 1 medium shallot, diced 2 garlic cloves, minced or grated 1 medium lemon, zested + 2 to 3 tablespoons lemon juice 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for more heat) ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, more to taste Freshly cracked black pepper ¼ cup (56g) extra virgin olive oil Instructions Make the dressing. Add the fresno peppers, raisins and maple syrup to a small saucepan or small non-stick skillet. Bring to a simmer, and simmer at a decent simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. The mixture will froth and bubble as the chiles release their water. Add the shallots and simmer for 3 more minutes. Transfer the mixture to a glass jar and allow to cool slightly. Add in the minced garlic, lemon zest, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, mustard, red pepper flakes, ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, several cracks of pepper, and olive oil. Shake well to combine. Taste, adding more salt or pepper to taste, and 1 more tablespoon of lemon juice as desired. The dressing will be thick. NOTE: If you prefer a more heavily dressed salad, add 1 to 2 more tablespoons olive oil and 1 more tablespoon lemon juice, plus more salt and pepper to taste. Prep the broccoli. Use a vegetable peeler to peel away the tough outer layer from the stalks, then roughly chop the stalks. Cut the crowns into large pieces. Add the broccoli stalks and stems only to your food processor. Pulse in short bursts until the stems are finely chopped. Scoop them out into a bowl. Now add the florets and pulse in short bursts (8 to 10 times) until the broccoli is finely chopped but not riced. It’s fine to have some variation in size, but if any large pieces remain, scoop them out and finely chop with a knife (or re-pulse separately in the food processor). Prep the fennel. Slice off the fennel stalks and discard or freeze for stock. Pick off the wispy fronds and save for garnish. Remove any tough outer layer from the fennel bulb, then slice the bulb in half, lengthwise. Using a mandoline or very sharp knife, very thinly slice the bulb crosswise. Toast the panko. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat and allow to warm, about 1 minute. Add the panko bread crumbs and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir frequently, especially once the panko starts to turn color, 3 to 5 minutes, until most of it is golden brown. Assemble. Add the broccoli, fennel, and parsley to a large serving bowl. Pour in some of the dressing and toss. Add more dressing as desired and toss again. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add your panko crumbs and nuts and toss again. Enjoy. Note: If planning to keep leftovers, add the panko and nuts only to the amount of salad you plan to eat. Store the toasted panko in a jar in the pantry.

What's In My Box? The difference between small and fulls this week is that smalls have less weight of broccoli, cauliflower and tomatoes. Only fulls have fennel and plums. small share/ full share Zucchini ~1 lb Scallions 1 bu Purple -or- Savoy or Cabbage 1 ct Broccoli 1.25 lb / 1.75 lb Lil' gem romaine 1 ct Cauliflower 1.25 /1.75 lb Beets, Chioggia or Red 1 lb Fennel 1 ct (fulls only) Plums 1 pint (fulls only) Salad lovers only salad add-on: 2/3 lb salanova salad mix Eggs for egg lovers add-on: starts today! Recipes we love Zucchini Butter Pasta Recipe and photo from smitten kitchen submitted by. CSA member Jennifer H. Thanks! This is such an interesting and EASY way to use up zucchini for a light summer meal. 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more for pasta water, and to taste 8 ounces (225 grams) spaghetti, cooked al dente 1 cup (235 ml) pasta water, reserved 1 1/4 pounds (570 grams) zucchini, trimmed, coarsely grated 6 tablespoons (85 grams) unsalted butter 4 garlic cloves, minced 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or more to taste 1/2 cup (45 grams) grated parmesan Handful fresh basil leaves, cut into thin ribbons Boil your spaghetti in well-salted water until it’s 1 minute shy of fully cooked. Before you drain it, reserve 1 cup of the pasta cooking water and set it aside. Melt butter in your empty pan over medium-high heat and add the garlic, stirring it into the butter for one minute before adding the zucchini, salt, and red pepper. Cook the zucchini, stirring from time to time, for 13 to 15 minutes. It will first let off a puddle liquid, the liquid will cook off, and the zucchini will become soft and concentrated. If the zucchini begins to brown, reduce the heat slightly. Stir frequently for 2 more minutes, chopping it down into smaller bits with the edge of your spoon or spatula, until it reaches an almost spreadable consistency. Really Good Vegan Broccoli Salad Recipe and photo from rainbow plant life 1 large head of broccoli (1 ½ pounds or 680g) 1 medium fennel bulb, very thinly sliced (optional, see note 1) 1 large handful of flat-leaf parsley, chopped 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil ½ cup (40g) panko breadcrumbs or homemade GF breadcrumbs ½ cup (70g) roasted almonds or pistachios, chopped (see note 3 for nut-free sub) Dressing 1 to 2 fresno peppers, thinly sliced (2 for a good level of heat) OPTIONAL 3 tablespoons golden raisins (or brown / Thompson raisins), chopped 3 tablespoons maple syrup or agave nectar 1 medium shallot, diced 2 garlic cloves, minced or grated 1 medium lemon, zested + 2 to 3 tablespoons lemon juice 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional, for more heat) ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, more to taste Freshly cracked black pepper ¼ cup (56g) extra virgin olive oil Instructions Make the dressing. Add the fresno peppers, raisins and maple syrup to a small saucepan or small non-stick skillet. Bring to a simmer, and simmer at a decent simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. The mixture will froth and bubble as the chiles release their water. Add the shallots and simmer for 3 more minutes. Transfer the mixture to a glass jar and allow to cool slightly. Add in the minced garlic, lemon zest, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, mustard, red pepper flakes, ¼ teaspoon kosher salt, several cracks of pepper, and olive oil. Shake well to combine. Taste, adding more salt or pepper to taste, and 1 more tablespoon of lemon juice as desired. The dressing will be thick. NOTE: If you prefer a more heavily dressed salad, add 1 to 2 more tablespoons olive oil and 1 more tablespoon lemon juice, plus more salt and pepper to taste. Prep the broccoli. Use a vegetable peeler to peel away the tough outer layer from the stalks, then roughly chop the stalks. Cut the crowns into large pieces. Add the broccoli stalks and stems only to your food processor. Pulse in short bursts until the stems are finely chopped. Scoop them out into a bowl. Now add the florets and pulse in short bursts (8 to 10 times) until the broccoli is finely chopped but not riced. It’s fine to have some variation in size, but if any large pieces remain, scoop them out and finely chop with a knife (or re-pulse separately in the food processor). Prep the fennel. Slice off the fennel stalks and discard or freeze for stock. Pick off the wispy fronds and save for garnish. Remove any tough outer layer from the fennel bulb, then slice the bulb in half, lengthwise. Using a mandoline or very sharp knife, very thinly slice the bulb crosswise. Toast the panko. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat and allow to warm, about 1 minute. Add the panko bread crumbs and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir frequently, especially once the panko starts to turn color, 3 to 5 minutes, until most of it is golden brown. Assemble. Add the broccoli, fennel, and parsley to a large serving bowl. Pour in some of the dressing and toss. Add more dressing as desired and toss again. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Add your panko crumbs and nuts and toss again. Enjoy.

Hello, meet some of your farmers. Flowers were blooming in abundance this week, so we snapped a few group photos. Staff not pictured are Peter, Jenna, Ryan, Jasmine, Colton and Isabelle. We hope to catch them next time. We were sorry to miss those who signed up for this Sundays sauerkraut making session that we were not able to host! In 17 years we've never canceled an event so we did not cancel it lightly. We thank you for your understanding. On-farm experiences are grown is clearly of interest to our members. We always fill up registration when we host an event. It's something we get excited about and enjoy typically. Last week was a big week and some of our farm team had unexpected competing demands, and we were - for the first time - understaffed for an event. If we host, we take it seriously and want to be prepared. So, alas, we look forward to offering alternative opportunities for on-farm connection and production soon. In the mean time, be sure to mark your calendar for our annual harvest potluck this year that is on Saturday October 3rd! This week brings the first ripe cherry and heirloom tomatoes, they will be in your shares and in your bellies in the next couple weeks -- we can't wait! Other crops coming soon are sweet corn, another round of salad mix and head lettuces, blueberries, bulb fennel, potatoes, purple cabbage, and more. Late July brings the first bell peppers and melons too... This week's featured crop is the beet. When beets are big like this, we like to quarter them and boil them for use in hummus, or slice them up and make a quick pink pickle. What we had never tried until recently was making beet juice without a juicer but it works! (See recipe below). Wondering where else we sell our produce/needing suggestions for dinner night out? Marche, Bar Purlieu, Rye, Charred Pizza, the Paddock, Pandita, Lovely, Domek, and Mazzis are restaurants that buy from our farm regularly. Other farm to table restaurants that buy certain seasonal crops from us are Yardi and the Wheel a Pub. Support your local farmers and restaurants in one! Thank you so much for taking this season's food adventure with us, let us know if you have any questions or favorite recipes. Email the farm at camasswalefarmcsa@gmail.com.

You may have wondered how the farm is effected by the warm winter and whether the farm has an extra heavy load of pest pressure this year. It's a long story that began with the first sighting of flea beetles in MARCH. Yes, March! The story would include tales of sticky traps, netting, companion planting with flowers, releasing of beneficial bugs, accidentally killing some of them, covering cucumber plants with a slurry of clay to hide them from bugs, adding more beneficials, seeing new beneficial bugs hatch and thrive, removing aphid ridden leaves, covering whole fields with row cover material to protect from flea beetles and cucumber beetles, and even scheduling spraying with OMRI/Organic approved pyrethrins/chrysanthemum when the populations of flea beetles are extra bad. All in all though, the crops are doing well with the exception of italian kale and collards, and the first round of cucumbers. Flea beetle pressure effected our favorite kale, but it should make a come back soon. The cucumbers were effected by sap sucking aphids and fruit was greatly effected. This is a first for us, greenhouse grown cucumbers are usually high yielding. With lots of assistance the plants are doing better and the next round of cucumbers were transplanted today. The rest of the crops on the other hand seem to benefit from the warm spring and some crops are setting fruit and sizing up quicker than usual. All in all-- what do you think of the quality of your shares so far? Feel welcome to reach out with feedback or questions or recipes anytime at camasswalefarmcsa@gmail.com.

Zucchini and Rainbow Chard Chickpea Stew Photo and Recipe from Dishing Up the Dirt Cookbook 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (or olive oil) 1 medium sized yellow onion, finely chopped 3 cloves of garlic, minced 2 1/2 tablespoons fresh thyme (woody stems discarded) 1 bay leaf 1/2 cup dry white wine 1-2 medium sized green zucchini, sliced into half moons (about 1/2 inch thick) 4 cups vegetable stock salt and pepper 2 cups cooked chickpeas 3 cups thinly sliced Swiss chard leaves 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice 2 tsp grated lemon zest pinch of crushed red pepper flakes additional salt and pepper to taste Instructions Heat the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, thyme and bay leaf. Cook for about 1 minute longer. Pour in the wine and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-high and cook until most of the liquid evaporates. Add the zucchini, stock and a hefty pinch of salt and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium low and cook until the zucchini is tender, about 8 minutes. Add the chickpeas and chard leaves. Continue to cook until the chard wilts down a bit.

Using a food processor or a box grater, grate the carrots, then drain and squeeze them with a paper towel to remove the excess moisture. Add them to a bowl. Add the remaining ingredients to the grated carrots and mix until well combined. If the mixture is still wet and difficult to handle, you might add more flour. Place a heaping tablespoon of the mixture on the baking sheet and flatten slightly with your hand. Bake the fritters in the preheated oven for about 12 minutes, then turn them over and bake for a further 12 minutes, or until golden and crispy. Check your oven; the baking time might be slightly different. Yogurt-hummus dip: Make a super easy yogurt-hummus dip by simply mixing plain yogurt, hummus, and lemon juice.

What's In My Box?

Trim away the woodiest part of the stem (about ½ inch from the bottom) and discard. Using a vegetable peeler, remove the thick outer layer of the stems, then grate or slice the peeled stems into thin matchsticks. Place all the broccoli in a very large bowl (you should have about 6 to 8 cups total). Make the coleslaw mix: Add the sliced basil or green onions, parsley, raisins, and sunflower seeds to the bowl with the broccoli. Toss to combine. Make the dressing: In a separate bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust the seasoning or acidity as needed. For extra flavor, add two or three small dashes of toasted sesame oil (see tips). To finish: Pour about two-thirds of the dressing over the broccoli mixture and toss well to coat. If the slaw looks a bit dry, add more dressing to taste. Serve right away or refrigerate for about an hour to let the flavors meld.

Recipes: herb and zucchini egg bake What's In My Box? The difference between small and fulls this week is that smalls have a little less bok choy, broccoli, zucchini and strawberries. Don't worry there is a lot more broccoli to come but as is with most crops, the first harvest is lighter. small share/ full share Parsley 1 bu Zucchini 1 - 2 ct Romaine 1 ct green kale 1 bu -- this was the first pick from some of the plants so the leaves are big and mineral packed but can be a bit tough, cooking and removing the main stem helps with texture and also makes all those mineral available!

The best thing about these ingredients is we don't need to pre-cook them: they cook right along with the eggs in the oven eggs- use large eggs for this recipe milk- you can use dairy or almond milk herbs- oregano, basil, parsley and salt cheese- I used mozzarella, but cheddar or even feta cheese would go well in here (omit salt if using feta) flour- yes, you read that right! Adding flour to this recipe helps with the moisture issue that comes with reheating eggs. You can use all purpose flour, gluten-free flour, or almond flour. baking powder- to help get a little bit fluffier of a breakfast bake Once you've prepped all your ingredients, it's time to do the baking part of the egg bake (find the printable recipe card with full measurements at the bottom of the post)! spray a 9 x 9 inch casserole dish mix together all ingredients in a large glass measuring dish pour the mixture into the baking dish bake for 30-35 minutes allow to sit for 10 minutes slice and enjoy!

Recipes: 5 minute pesto, rainbow chard enchiladas Putting in the Seed Robert Frost You come to fetch me from my work tonight When supper's on the table, and we'll see If I can leave off burying the white Soft petals fallen from the apple tree. (Soft petals, yes, but not so barren quite, Mingled with these, smooth bean and wrinkled pea;) And go along with you ere you lose sight Of what you came for and become like me, Slave to a springtime passion for the earth. How Love burns through the Putting in the Seed On through the watching for that early birth When, just as the soil tarnishes with weed, The sturdy seedling with arched body comes Shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs. Poetry Book : Mountain Interval (1916) What's In My Box? The difference between small and fulls this week is that smalls do not have ho mi zi, cilantro or strawberries. small share/ full share Basil 1 bu snap peas 1 pt Purple kale 1 bu chard 1 bu Butterhead lettuce 1ct Baby Napa cabbage 1-2 ct mustard greens, "ho mi zi" 1 bu fulls only Cilantro fulls only Strawberries 1/2 pt fulls only Salad lovers only salad add-on 2/3 lb salad 5 Minute Pesto 2 cups basil de-stemmed 1/2 lemon juiced 2 cloves garlic 1/2 cup parmesan cheese 1/2 cup olive oil salt and pepper Instructions: Add the basil, lemon, garlic, parmesan cheese, salt and pepper to a food processor or blender. Pulse a few times to get the ingredients chopped. Run your machine at full speed while drizzling in the olive oil. Let run for 20-30 seconds or until your ingredients are well incorporated. Notes Yield – 1 1/2 cups Storage – in fridge for 5 days or freezer for 3 months ** If you would like to add nuts to this pesto, I recommend adding 1/4 cup pine nuts or almonds and reducing the parmesan cheese to 1/4 cup. Rainbow Chard Enchiladas with Rhubarb chipotle sauce Photo and recipe from Natural Yella Rhubarb sauce (or use a store bought enchilada sauce. But if you happened upon rhubarb and want something other than pie to make with it... try this!) 2 cups diced rhubarb 1/4 medium onion 1 tablespoon olive oil 1/2-1 teaspoon chipotle powder 1/2 teaspoon paprika 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup veggie broth 2 tablespoon brown sugar 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar Enchiladas: 1/2 cup black beans juice from one lime 1 clove garlic pinch salt 2 cups rainbow chard Cheese of choice (I used mozzarella) 4-6 corn tortillas Instructions: Preheat oven to 375˚. In a larger pot, heat olive oil over medium. Add in onions and saute until the onions become translucent, 4-5 minutes. Stir in rhubarb and continue to cook until rhubarb begins to soften, 3-4 minutes. Next, add remaining ingredients. I start with 1/2 teaspoon of chipotle and taste at the end to see if I want more heat. Stir and bring sauce to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Let cook for 10-15 minutes. Rhubarb will begin to break down and sauce will smooth out (although, I left a few chunks of rhubarb.) For filling, heat lime juice in a skillet over medium-low. Add in garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in beans and salt, cooking until beans are hot. Remove the swiss chard stem and shred greens. Stir in to beans and cook for one minute. Chard should barely be starting to wilt. To assemble enchiladas, spread 1/4 cup the rhubarb sauce in the bottom of an 8x8 pan (or something similar.) Have a warm water bath ready and dip each corn tortilla in the water (or you can dip it in the sauce as well) for 10-15 seconds. Remove and fill with bean mixture then carefully roll. Place seem side down in pan. Repeat with the remaining corn tortillas. I choose to only put cheese on top, but you can also toss cheese in each shell. Add desired amount of cheese on top and cover with remaining rhubarb sauce. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Cheese should be melted and rhubarb sauce should be bubbling.
