This is the final week of the Summer Flower Share!

Flower people! 

Thank you so much for bringing our blooms into your homes these past 8 weeks. We hope they were a joy and a comfort, food for the soul. This final week we are sharing some of my favorite flowers with you. A small limelight hydrangea in the center of your bouquet, finally ready to pick and kissed with a touch of pink! Abelia, fragrant and delicate, one of our favorites for wedding work. Also dahlias, gunnii eucalyptus, golden hour or queen zinnia as well as some of those sweet mini Oklahoma zinnia, and sea oats, a distinctive beautiful grass that dances above the bouquet and dries or presses perfectly. 



-Sincerely, Deena and Team Sweet Roots!

Mountain Bounty Farm suggested CSA Box recipes:

Follow along with Anna's latest Cooking the Bounty video to make this Roasted Tomato Sauce. It is easy and only takes one pan and a blender, meaning minimal cleanup is needed! Be sure to subscribe to our channel for more fun CSA recipes from Anna.

Quick Pickled Jalapeños (click here) are a great thing to have in the fridge to toss on top of basically any dish you make! On tacos, on scrambled eggs, on tomato toast, little garnishes like this can really elevate your meals! No need for a canner

No matter what kind of melon you have in your box this week, this Sweet Corn and Watermelon Salad (click here)  will be a perfect snack. The salty cheese, the sweet corn and melon and the bite from the basil (or cilantro!) make a delicious and hydrating flavor profile! 

Whether you have zucchini or cucumber in your box this week, try smashing it! Smash your zucchini (click here) or smash your cucumber (click here) to increase the surface area for flavor absorption!

"Feed the Fam" Baby/Kid/Pet friendly recipes - Skewers for the grill are a fun family dinner to make together! Toss your shishitos, zucchini and cherry tomatoes on skewers this week with some Asian marinated beef (click here) for a beautiful and fun to make dinner!

“USE IT UP” WEEKLY RECIPE!

If you still have some bell pepper and carrots left from last week, make this Shredded Carrot and Bell Pepper Salad with Ginger Honey Vinaigrette (click here). It goes perfectly with your favorite BBQ-ed protein.

*MEMBER SPOTILIGHT RECIPE*

CSA Member Sara of "Hippiejuice Wellness" sent us this AMAZING Eggplant Baba Ganoush recipe (click here) she made! It was especially helpful for her since it was a soft dip and she was recovering from mouth surgery (but she still craved delicious food).

Try it out and let us know what you think!
