Week 12, 2015

Double tomatoes this week- it is just that time of year.  Folks like to say that Labor Day is the end of summer, but here in Michigan at least we can often have some of the best summer crops rolling into late September.  As always we encourage you to click the blue links with each vegetable below for lots of recipe ideas.  Tomatoes also freeze well so you can save them for making Chili when the days are cold and dark.If you're reading this, let us know in the comments if there's anything you'd like more information about: recipes, aspects of the farm, farming in Detroit, etc....Here's what is in the box this week:
