In this season of intense sun and heat, and equally intense storms, we just can’t do anything halfway. We get attached to special local items and want to eat them all the time, in everything. Read about this week’s seasonal favorites that we just can’t get enough of.

Happy National Bike to Work Week! This week, bicycle commuters, including a few Boston Organics employees, will celebrate the many benefits of cycling. If you see our cargo bike driver on the road, be sure to give him an extra friendly wave as he delivers your produce. Boxes this week are full of colorful produce, rivaling the brightest fluorescent bike attire. As the weather keeps getting better, we’re sure we’ll see more and more cyclists on the road. We want to keep all members of the Boston Organics Community powered up, regardless of how they choose to get around.

It's Marathon Monday, but today we also commemorate the first shots of the American Revolution, fired at Old North Bridge in Concord. The event was memorialized by Ralph Waldo Emerson in his 1837 poem Concord Hymn: “Here once the embattled farmers stood, /And fired the shot heard round the world.” Honor your modern farmers through your enjoyment of delicious organic produce, and take some bites heard round the world. And if you see our vans this week, feel free to shout out, “The green boxes are coming! The green boxes are coming!”

Summer in New England is something special. Maybe it’s because the days are so long and the nights are so hot, or because the winter is so bitter that even a tiny bit of sun is a welcome change.

There's something special about produce grown organically on a New England farm - maybe it’s the fact that it hasn't been sprayed with synthetic pesticides, or maybe it’s because it ripened naturally for little bit longer and harvested shortly before you take your first bite.
Whatever the reason, you’ll taste the difference in your box this week because our local produce season is at its best!
This week, we have two new treats from Atlas Farm: spring onions & pickling cucumbers. We also have fresh basil from Happy Valley Organics, and spring kohlrabi from a new local farm partner in Rochester, MA.

This week’s spotlight is shining brightest on (drumroll, please) basil! Because so much of the Boston Organics Community will be receiving Happy Valley Organics’ fragrant basil, we’ve included not one, but two great recipes in this week's newsletter for your culinary adventures.
It’s definitely summer, and we’re flush with all the telltale classics right now. We are up to our knees in crisp greens from Atlas Farms like leaf lettuce and kale, and we’re firing up the grill to char some kabobs loaded with the gorgeous bell peppers.
