What is in the Co-Op bags this week 7/22

The cucumbers did not come this week :(

The Crop Mob... The Bergel Family will be attending this weekend, if that is any incentive for anyone!
1 work day left...
One of our local farmers is setting up a little 'Crop MOB'. It's a time when all of you who are interested in helping out our local foodies and get your hands a little dirty. They have set up two dates for helpers to come out, tour the farm, have lunch with the farmers (their treat!!), and dig in a little to help them out. It's a great way to get more connected with your food source and see exactly where your co-op goodies are coming from!! Maybe it will even be that you'll receive something in your bag that you PLANTED...or from the ground you prepared. Knowing our farmers, Chuck, Dawn, Jon and Mike, I'm sure it will be a fun time for everyone and another great educational experience!!
SO....here's the dates... July 16th(PAST!) and 24th. The Trolley's would appreciate an RSVP to their Crop Mob invite so they can be sure to have plenty of luscious lunches available to everyone. Please let them know if you can come by emailing chasbt1@yahoo.com. They will be thrilled to hear from you!

Thanks to member Clare for her recipe!
She said, "I usually use canned chopped tomatoes (Pomi are my favorite but are expensive). Use water instead of wine if you wish".
