This is the view from my kitchen island on Monday: an abundance of parsley, tomatoes, eggplants, cucumbers, and peppers from the Bread and Roses CSA (plus some grocery store fruit.)

Over the past 7 weeks, my kitchen island has looked like this: overflowing with produce, flavorful herbs, plentiful greens, glossy eggplants, and resplendent troves of juicy, jewel-hued tomatoes that taste just as great as they look. I’ve encountered both new-to-me foods (sweet potato vines! cutting celery!) and plenty of staples (potatoes! onions!) and I’ve been using each week’s haul in everything from coleslaw, to scrambles, to daily salads.

Here is a complete run-down of all the veg that has appeared on my front porch since mid-June: arugula, basil, beans, cabbage, carrots, cilantro, collard greens, cucumbers, cutting celery, dill, edamame, eggplant, garlic, golden beets, new potatoes, onions, oregano, salad mix, scallions, Swiss chard, Thai basil, Tokyo bekana, tomatoes, zucchini. What a haul, right? The variety of produce that Bread and Roses delivers is truly unparalleled, and delicious to boot. But you probably didn’t come here to hear me ramble on about how tasty this all is… no, we eat with our eyes! Feast on these scrumptious snapshots from 7 weeks of farm-fresh groceries:
