As a CSA  member, you eat like the farmers do--that is, what's in season and lots of it. At this time of year just when I think I can't take another tomato, I think back to cold winter days when I would give anything for a fresh tomato or a spring of just-picked basil.This week's box:Cherry Tomatoes from Buffalo Street Slicing tomatoes from Food Field and Fields of Plenty (Estiva hybrid or slicing) Carrots from Buffalo Street Cucumbers from food field Hot peppers from Singing Tree/ Food Field (Due to all the rain and cold nights they are not hot at all) Green Beans from Food Field, Singing Tree and Buffalo Street Basil from buffalo street Leafy Greens  from Buffalo Street, Singing Tree, Fields of Plenty and Food Field--Swiss Chard or kale or collards  Garlic from Food Field  Herbs From Singing Tree and Fields of Plenty: Chives OR Parsley OR Sage Or Oregano ---
