Produce

The rain stopped, the sun came out, and the heat of summer has finally made its way to Boston. For our garden, summer sunshine means abundant growth and production. The garden couldn't be happier. What used to be delicate little seedlings in plastic trays are now thick bushes that fill cages and cling to the side of our fence. Rapidly maturing zucchini, peas, cucumbers, and tomatoes now fill our plot (we took pictures for proof). In a couple of weeks we will be drowning in produce. Have great recipes for fresh produce? Send them on to us. Need produce? Stop by our garden!
