Our CSA box is now bringing us tomatoes each week! Woo hoo! Of course the kids end up eating them like apples the minute they're ripe enough, but I'm not complaining. If you look closely you'll see a container of blueberries that was half eaten before we took the picture...we made blueberry pancakes for dinner that night, and even the two year old ate them, which is a feat since 90% of his diet is peanut better and jelly sandwiches.

| Our amazing Kretschmann Farm CSA box this week. |
 |
| The lady bugs on the eggplant...hopefully they'll go eat that flea beetle. |
 |
| I have a few tomatillo flowers on each plant, so we should have purple and green tomatillos soon! |
 |
| The broccoli is setting out side shoots, though I can't imagine them getting very large in this ridiculous heat. |
 |
| The mystery melon is getting larger. |
 |
| A baby watermelon starting. |
 |
| These volunteers look nothing like any of the tomatoes I've ever grown or bought. They're probably some hybrid of a roma. |
 |
| Those two had blossom end rot so I picked them. Look how weirdly long and skinny! |
 |
| I though I saw squash vine borer fracas there, but now I'm not sure. The plant is definitely sick but it seems to be more of a leaf issue. |
 |
| That is another volunteer that is an obvious hybrid of last years Black Prince and some other tomato. |
 |
| Sweet Mother of God. I should have pulled these all last week...look at all the powdery mildew. This is the worst case of it I've ever seen, and it's bizarre because the weather has been super hot. |
 |
| My black beauty eggplant was looking very sick so I picked the two little eggplants pretty small. |
