Hi everyone,

We’re back from break and ready for the peak of summer produce! This week’s share is the heaviest of the season (22 lbs!) and we’re expecting them to only get heavy here on out. Despite the apparent abundance of our shares, Nichols has been having a tough season. They’ve experience multiple flash flood events over the last month that has cause a significant amount of damage to some crops. Fortunately, what wasn’t washed away is thriving and abundant and ready for us to enjoy.

One of my favorite parts of the CSA Club is the way we can take advantage of our shared volume to increase the diversity of produce we each get to try. In a normal Nichols share this week, each received one varietal melon. Some received one variety,  and others received another. Across all our shares this week, we had two varieties. Instead of only getting to try one, we each get to enjoy a little bit of both. What fun.

Hope you all enjoy the share!

-Ben
