A good year for gapes.

Our new favorite vegetable
Every year we try out a few new vegetables, and every year we fall in love with one of them. This year, it is yellow Romano beans – Meraviglia di Venezia – fantastica!
Romano beans are seldom seen in markets in this country, but they are much-loved in Europe, and especially in Northern Italy, where they are an essential staple. This variety is colorful, tender, and flavorful. Cook them like any green bean, or add them to minestrone soup as Italians have been doing for centuries.
We will be selling them at the Snohomish Farmers Market (3pm-7pm) this Thursday, but quantities are limited, so don’t be late!
Here is a partial list of what will be on sale at the Farmers Market –
- Beefsteak tomatoes $5/lb
- Cherry tomatoes $5/lb
- Cocktail cucumbers $4/lb
- English cucumbers $2 each
- Slicing cucumbers $2 each
- Yellow Romano beans $7/lb
- Green beans $5/lb
- Summer squash $1 each
- Green peppers $1 each
- Shishito peppers $4 per quart
- Braided onions $10 per 5 lb braid
- Kale (3 varieties) $4 per bunch
- Salad mix $8 per 10 oz bag
As Crocodile Dundee would say-
That’s not a tomato. This is a tomato.
“Aussie” heirloom tomato variety. If you visit our farmstand to buy one of these, rent a trailer.

Adventures in Eating
This week our farmstand is well stocked with beautiful produce! We have heirloom tomatoes, 5 varieties of summer squash, 3 varieties of cucumbers, onions, green beans, cabbage, leeks, kale, basil, potatoes, and eggplant.
Thursday we returned from the Snohomish Farmers Market with some unsold produce (basil, tomatoes, eggplant) and a beautiful loaf of Sea-Salt Focaccia bread from The Cottage Bakery. We made a simple basil pesto (with just basil, olive oil and Parmasan cheese). We sliced the focaccia, smeared it with pesto, topped it with sliced tomato, grilled eggplant slices and fresh mozzarella. Honestly, it was the most delicious sandwich we have ever eaten!
And for one of the best and simplest soups you will ever taste – try our leek and potato soup recipe.
A huge crop of cucumbers
This is our wash/pack room at High & Dry Farm. This morning we picked 200 lbs of cucumbers and we will be picking more daily for the next 6 weeks. Does one of these have your name on it? Three varieties are available now at our self-serve farm stand, along with heirloom tomatoes and a variety of other produce items. Everything is Certified Organic.
