It’s always a challenge to practice patience when waiting for tomatoes to ripen on the vine. Mine got in later than usual this year as well but they are loaded with fruit. The first cherry tomatoes are beginning to color up. I’m thinking next week we should have at least a few pints. The slicers generally take at least a week or so longer before they start. While the wait is long, we all know a good Jersey tomato is worth waiting for!
In the meantime the green beans are coming in strong, the Asian eggplant is starting to produce and we’ll have some baby bok choy this week.
- Also this week:
- Kale
- Collards
- Chard
- Baby Bok Choy
- Escarole
- Eggplant
- Carrots
- Beets
- Green Beans
- Potatoes
- Cucumbers
- Zucchini / Squash
- Basil
- Garlic
Open Friday 11am – 6 pm
I found a delicious recipe for Collards, which I bought by mistake last week :-). Very easy, with garlic and lemon, and a nifty way to quickly cut the Collards. Here it is in case anyone’s interested:

Thanks for the link, Joyce. I’m going to try it tonight. Collards are my favorite green! They are super yummy and right up there with kale health wise.
