July 14th

Eggs
Carrots
Peppers-will be labeled  (look at the labeling system below)
Tomatoes - WE HOPE.  Lots of tomatoes on just waiting for them to ripen
Cucumbers
Chard
Kale
Summer Squash
Onions
Lettuce blend

*Most of you have said you would still like to get chard and kale…IF NOT – let us know…
*Pepper labeling:  
green sticker means sweet (even if the pepper is yellow, red, purple or polka-dotted); any peppers not labeled will be sweet.
yellow means "in-between", such as spicy or moderately zippy (as in pepperoncini, ancho/poblano, some Italian frying types, etc.) 
red means hot (as in jalapeno, cayenne, New Mex/Anaheim, etc.--these peppers may be green, yellow, or red)

When it comes to yellow or red stickers, it is best to taste first and add gradually to your recipe, as peppers can vary considerably in their pungency, even from the same plant.  To remove heat, take out the seeds and inside whitish membranes--which is where the heat is concentrated.
