blackberries coming your way
"May be true what I had heard,
Earth's a howling wilderness
Truculent with fraud and force,"
Said I, strolling through the pastures,
And along the riverside.
Caught among the blackberry vines,
Feeding on the Ethiops sweet,
Pleasant fancies overtook me:
I said, "What influence me preferred
Elect to dreams thus beautiful?"
The vines replied, "And didst thou deem
No wisdom to our berries went?"
-"Berrying" by Ralph Waldo Emerson

garlic e-scape-ade.
Coming along after green garlic, which is harvested before the bulb forms, garlic scapes are the long flower bud that grows out of the bulb later in the season. Less spicy than its fully formed future cousin, these scapes are full of fiber, vitamin C and provitamin A. Eaten raw in salads, sauteed, grilled or thrown in soups, this seasonal charmer is included in all farm shares this week. And if you're confused about what to do and want an e-scape hatch, check out a stir fry recipe here on the blog!
ORDER BY SUNDAY AT MIDNIGHT FOR DELIVERY THE WEEK OF JULY 4! ALL DELIVERY DAYS WILL REMAIN THE SAME NEXT WEEK.

IT'S TIME FOR STRAWBERRIES

Yellowbird Foodshed: On A Mission To Decentralize The Food System One Customer At A Time
by Benji Ballmer (first appeared inEdible Columbus)
The term foodshed is used to describe a region of food flows, from the area where it is produced to the place where it is consumed, including the land it grows on, the route it travels, the markets it passes through, and the tables it ends up on. Central Ohio is shrinking its foodshed – and that’s a good thing.
We all know that of the money we spend at the grocery store or in a restaurant, very little of that reaches the person who grew that food. When our foodshed is small, there are fewer people who need to make a profit in order to get the food from field to fork. A smaller foodshed flips our current system upside down, putting the majority of the money back into the pockets of the people who deserve it the most – those that are actually growing the food!
