One of the best parts of receiving a Talley Farms Box is the excitement of opening your box to find something new every week. Between our farm and partner growers through California, we are able to feature a variety of fresh, new fruits and vegetables year-around. During the month of April we’re very excited to have fresh Okui strawberries. These strawberries are a local favorite, grown in Grover Beach, and vine-ripened for full sweetness. We send a truck to pick up flats every single day, so the harvest is as fresh as it gets.
Other exciting surprises to look forward to in April include fresh peas (shelling peas and sugar snap), artichokes and asparagus! All of these green vegetables make easy and delicious sides to brighten up any meal. Sugar snap peas, carrots, and cucumbers need nothing more than a creamy dip to enjoy in a fresh vegetable platter. Speaking of dip, avocados are back! We will also continue to have mushrooms, spinach, beets and cauliflower. Kiwis and oranges are still abundant as well, but their growing season is winding down. Blueberries, on the other hand are ramping up, so stock up while you can! Enjoy the fresh harvest of spring.
