Box descriptions

So it is bad form to complain about the rain, as water is so important for growing plants, but if we can dry out a bit this week nobody would mind.  The clay soils of Detroit are great for a lot of things, but draining after a big rain like we had on Saturday isn't one of them.  That being said, we have a great box of veggies for you to enjoy on your holiday weekend, and please remember if you have a Saturday pick up that we ARE NOT taking off the holiday so please pick up your box, send someone to pick it up, or let us know you're going to be missing.Now on to the veggies, and as always follow the linked vegetable names for recipe ideas:
