Other great things are broccoli, cauliflower, and grilling zucchini and sweet onions. Plenty of herbs and kale. Our new crop of cilantro and dill are looking excellent along with the sweet basil.

Cherries are big, dark, and flavorful, except for the Raineer (yellow) type. Blueberries and blackberries are more abundant, great flavors. Strawberry size is slightly increased from small to medium, good tasting crop.

White nectarines are my current favorite amongst the wind kissed yellow nectarines and white and yellow peaches. Sunflower bunches beautiful.

There are a few burpless Japanese type cucumbers, and we will have to wait one more week before starting with green tomatoes for the fry pan.

If it helps, we will be putting on a few special deals, especially for those of you who are whole box buyers. This is a great time of year to capture the flavors of the season by freezing, jamming, etc. and we don't want anybody to miss a great tastebud experience.
