Hearty greens are returning. This is a mix of 5 different Brassica greens: Arugula, Tatsoi, Kale, Red Mustard, and Mizuna. Suitable for a salad or stir fry. Rinse and ready to eat.
Also returning is Salad Mix/Lettuce mix which is all lettuce, mostly green but some red. 3-6 varieties are used. Rinse and ready to eat.
The up and down weather patterns are not favorable to tomato growth. Ripening is slow and the quality is low.
Red cherry tomatoes are abundant but starting to crack.
Sweet potatoes will be coming in two weeks.
Delicata and Butternut squash is abundant and has never looked better. There are sizes from 1 pound to 5 pounds.
