Mustard greens are full of nutrients such as Vitamin A, Folate and Potassium. They are delicious sauteed with butter or oil, garlic and salt. They are also wonderful in a savory tart. Below is a recipe from Eating Well that I thought was a little different. The peanut sauce adds a sweet balance to the bitterness in the greens. Enjoy!

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons peanut butter
1 tablespoon rice-wine vinegar
2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons water
2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped (1 tablespoon)

I just opened the New York Times and saw this:

I had to share with you all these great ideas. You'll see a lot of the items mentioned by Bittman coming from the farm over the next few months.

Happy Eating!

Meat and dairy this week, too.

Hi everyone, here is the information for this week's share:

Vegetable Share
lettuce
carrots
fava beans
sugar snap peas
sorrel

Fruit Share
apples
peaches
(note from the farm: Please be aware that due to the extreme amount of rain this season, the peaches are not particularly sweet. Fruit needs plenty of sun in order to reach it's full sweetness.)

Flour and bean share this week, too!

July is here and asparagus and strawberries are gone. Despite all the rain and cool weather, our berry crop was good. Not as sweet as we would have liked -- we needed more sunshine and warmth for that.

It was one of the coldest and wettest Junes on record. Our other crops have been a week or two slower to come on as well. Lettuce, herbs and radishes have all done well. Our scallions, carrots, beets and fennal are all arriving shortly, as well as fava beans and peas. Beans and squash will be here by mid-month.
