Topic: spring produce

Long, warm, sunshine-filled days have put a spring in our steps and smiles on our faces! And you know what they say about spring rains bringing flowers! This mercurial weather surely has us thinking about all kinds of seasonal produce to savor. It's that time of year when we say goodbye to beets and hello to asparagus, rhubarb and strawberries! Some customers are already asking about tomatoes. Did you know it takes between 60-100 days from planting to harvest a local tomato. Today's work will be August's bounty!

Our Spring Produce Guide will tell you all about the produce you can expect to see in your box this season, as well as what to do with it.

Are you familiar with the expression it’s just the tip of the iceberg? That’s the best way to describe how much you probably knew about asparagus...until now.

Spring is in the air and with it the daylight time and energy to break out of our winter doldrums. Perhaps your pantry has acquired an inventory - canned goods, snacks and other processed foods - more worthy of winter (and Covid) dormancy than Spring brightness and warmth. Well, that's easily fixed with our tips for building a pantry worthy of the vernal equinox and the fresh seasonal produce to come.

Summer is so close you can literally taste it.

Summer doesn’t officially start until next week and Boston public schools are still holding classes (thanks a lot Snowpocalypse), but our fruits and vegetables don’t seem to care. The peaches, nectarines and plums are ripening rapidly and the scallions, chives, kale and zucchini are ready for harvest.

Typical of this time of the year, leafy greens are in great abundance, while much of the rest of our favorite seasonal produce is still ripening on the vine. Organic chard, kale, spinach, lettuce and bok choy are all coming from Atlas Farm this week. We can't help but wonder, what are we supposed to do with all of these organic greens?!

It’s raining, it’s pouring and our farmers are breathing a sigh of relief. While these spring showers may have unhinged a few of our weekend plans, it’s a welcome storm for some of our farmers who have been fretting over increasingly abnormal weather patterns.
