Peas, strawberries, and June 18th Next Door Dinner
Hi everyone,
We hope you all enjoyed your first share of the season. Please definitely reach out if there are any issues. The feedback is super helpful. And tag us in any photos of food you make with the shares. We love seeing what you all put together with the produce. Don’t forget to bring with your tote and empty containers to the pick-up (or set them out for delivery). The weather on Friday is looking nice so we will setup outside of tinyshop (maybe actually setup this time).
Exciting news! We’re doing a collaboration dinner with Next Door Dinners and Traverse at Loft Lucia in West Loop on June 18th. The venue is gorgeous and the menu was designed by my friend and chef, Tom DiCarlo. All proceeds will go to Market Box to support their work in distributing locally sourced produce to low income families across the south side. You can get your tickets here. We hope to see you all there!
This week’s share is full of greens, as is expected this time of year. The weather has been consistently warm though, so we’re expecting that the produce will start looking a little more summery before we know it. The recipe this week features a couple of larder items that we’ve made this year (pickled golden beets and green garlic salt). We’ll have them available for purchase at pickup, but feel free to purchase them ahead of time to add to your share.
Hope you all enjoy the share!
