Welcome to the Boston Organics Blog!

With school back in session, many members of the Boston Organics Community are getting back into their regular routine, but as familiar folks return from their vacations and new friends join our community, we have lots of exciting new things to share!

Over the summer we expanded our delivery area to include Revere. We also added a wide variety of organic grocery add-ons, and we started working with a couple of new local farm partners including Oxen Hill Farm of Suffield, CT!

It just doesn't feel like summer without a nice array of fragrant tomatoes on your kitchen counter, and this week many members of the Boston Organics Community will find a pint of beautiful grape tomatoes from Lakeside Organics in their weekly box!

These bite-sized tomatoes are a real treat, not only because they're certified organic and locally grown, but because it's been a particularly tough year for organic tomato farmers in New England. Late blight, a devastating fungal disease, has destroyed thousands of organic tomato plants in Massachusetts alone - making organic tomatoes more expensive and difficult to find.

This week's newsletter explores the effect that late blight has had on the local organic tomato crop and explains what organic farmers are doing to contain it.

And while we wait for Atlas Farm's tomatoes to ripen on the vine, we're fortunate to be getting plenty of fresh field tomatoes from Blue Ox Farm.
