Summer CSA Week 7!

We can't believe there are only 3 weeks left of the summer CSA! It has been amazing getting to watch things grow over the past weeks from seed into a full acre of food. The Kitchen Garden has a special place in my heart...and all of my aching muscles! But the hard work has definitely paid off (the view helps too).This past week we harvested loads more cherry tomatoes! The hoop house is becoming more of a forest than a house. We have been lucky enough to not only give our CSA members lots of cherry tomatoes but we have also sold them to Salt, The Boars Head and Integral Yoga. It's really exciting to be part of a whole network of food systems in Charlottesville.If you are looking for a quick and easy recipe to use up those cherry tomatoes check out this yummy pasta dish.Some things are coming to an end in the garden; this week we mowed down the salad greens, pulled out the rest of the onions and the last of the Napa cabbage. But, by the end of next week we hope to have plenty of peppers and eggplants! If you're looking for a way to use your Napa cabbage and radishes from this weeks share try this kimchi recipe.We hope some of you can make it to our volunteer workday this Sunday from 9am-noon!All for now,Gabi Freckmann, MKG Summer Intern
