Still not able to post pictures of the share. We'll sort this out soon, I am sure! In the meantime, here are some pictures of the new crops in this week's share:

| Bulb fennel - This year's fennel is a lot more bulbous, a triumph! |

| Fresh soybeans or edaname. Yum! |

Mini Shares: two items of the farm members choice, as usual.
HERBS: We've been struggling a bit this year to provide the shares with herbs. We have plenty of unusual and interesting herbs but have not had enough parsley, cilantro, and dill. Plus we wanted to try having cutting celery and chervil but they haven't grown very well so far. More nice dill is on its way and hopefully there will a better supply of parsley as well. Since every time we have trouble with something, the next year we do a great job of growing that item (primarily through attention and determination), my prediction is that in 2019 the farm will have lots and lots of parsley and cilantro all season long! Just saying.
