Holy moly only four more boxes! That went quickly. I do sort of feel like some of the boxes have not been as strong as prior years but I also have heard that it was a tough year for Utah farmers, with everything coming in all at once. Plus, it is still a good deal: the boxes of berries alone make it worthwhile.
Speaking of boxes of berries, we got more this week! We got two cartons of raspberries (different varieties), a pasilla pepper, some wax peppers, a purple pepper, tomatoes, a delicata squash, some pears, some nectarines (really good), some huge peaches (less good), a cucumber, two ears of corn and a canary melon.
The corn on the cob (better than last week) and the melon (a bit over-ripe, unfortunately) were eaten right away. The raspberries, being delicate, went in our oatmeal and were delicious. A bunch of peppers went into a gnocchi sheet pan bake. The peaches got chunked up and made into a ginger-peach jam (which I may have scorched just a bit, sigh). The delicata squash, well, that was roasted whole and then mashed up for Milton. The boy loves his squash.
