I just loved the fall theme, each pumpkin with the name of a member of our Springdell family.  What a great way to celebrate all of their hard work, their endless hours to bring us all of our delicious fruits and veggies.  Thank you Springdell family for dedicating yourselves to bringing us the best of the seasons.

Lets take a look at pick up #17

The Swap Box was looking rather robust today! Jess grabbed some small onions, extra wax beans and poblano peppers.

Check out the swap box this week!  Take advantage of the bounty and save for the winter.

 

 

Below is a quick dinner I put together on the fly:

French bread

Spread on some ricotta cheese

Sautee some Swiss chard with olive oil and garlic powder, toss some chopped sausage into the mix too!

Layer the chard and sausage mix and top with slices of cheese.

Melt under the broiler.  Slice and served with a simple salad of Springdell lettuce, roasted beets, and rice vinegar.  Enjoy!
