CSA 2025 - Week #12 (B)
SEPTEMBER 3, 4 & 5
Happy September! This is the best month of the growing season! Summer crops are still in full bloom, and our fall favorites are right around the corner. This week, tender arugula is back and green beans are ready!
Have a beautiful week, friends!

IN THE BOX…
Green Beans
You can’t find these sweet, tender beans anywhere! (Except in a CSA!) Be sure to not overcook. Steam until just knife tender. We love them simply served with butter and salt.
Storage: In an air-tight bag in the fridge.
Musk Melon - Wednesday
Sometimes called cantaloupe, these are actually musk melons.
Storage: IN THE FRIDGE! They are harvested ripe and they will rot if you leave them on the counter!
Watermelon - Thursday & Friday
Storage: IN THE FRIDGE!
Green Cabbage - Wednesday
Storage: In an air-tight bag in the fridge.
Flowering Cauliflower - Friday
This is a new variety of summer loving cauliflower. We love it cut into florets and roasted in the oven with garlic and olive oil until tender and slightly brown and caramelized. Storage: In an air-tight bag in the fridge.
Sungold Cherry Tomatoes
Storage: On the counter. Make sure the red tomatoes ripen to a deep red.
Red Tomatoes - Wednesday & Thursday

Arugula

**The fruit is packaged in paper tote bags inside a cardboard box at the site. If you are not a fruit share member, do not touch the totes!**
IF IT DOES NOT SAY "FRUIT" NEXT TO YOUR NAME ON THE CHECK-IN SHEET, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE DO NOT TAKE A FRUIT TOTE. We only send the exact number of orders to each site. We know that the fruit is tempting and delicious and you can still sign up if you haven't already! info@goldenearthworm.com
If someone else is picking up your share for you, be sure to instruct them on the pick-up protocols. Last year we had a "substitute" pick-up person take an entire box of fruit! It's one tote bag per fruit share membership.
