Wonderful Orders This Week 
Our yummy $20 Farmer Pick order this week! 
So we had an amazing week with such a great variety of harvests coming in from our group of farms! We did have one change-up on the last-minute Fruit Only Boxes, we didn't get all of the Lychee Fruit we expected so we sent one order of Lychee (instead of two) and one order of White Nectarines from our Orchardist Beech Creek Farms. Otherwise everything is absolutely beautiful and delicious. Can't wait for you all to taste that amazing Sweet Corn!

Weekly Recipe:
Grilled Napa Cabbage Slaw
Halved fresh chinese cabbage crossection macro detail.
Oh my gosh, try our delicious method for a Slaw everyone will rave about! If you're already firing up the grill this is a great way to get some great flavor on the veggies, too.

     1. Prepare Cabbage: Wash, trim and slice entire head in half lengthwise. Depending on the amount you want to make you can put 1/2 of the head away for another dish or grill it all up. If you got a very large head in your box you can cut it again into quarters.  
     2. Brush cut sides with Vegetable, Canola, Peanut, Coconut or other light oil. Grill on all sides for 2-3 minutes over medium heat. You want some grill color and smokiness but we're not trying to really cook it. Allow to cool after removing from grill.  
     3.  Wash, trim and chop 2-3 Baby Onions and 1-2 Bell Peppers very thinly. Chop grilled cooled Cabbage into thin strips, mix together with Onions and Pepper.  
     4. Prepare dressing: mix together 1/3 cup Rice Wine Vinegar (or other light Vinegar), 2/3 cup Peanut or Olive Oil, 3T Sesame Oil, Ginger & Garlic to taste (use fresh if you have it or ground dried works too), 3T Soy Sauce, 1/3 cup Honey or 3T Sugar, ground pepper. Mix dressing into prepared Vegetables, just enough to coat them all well (you will likely have some left over). Refrigerate for at least an hour. Before serving, taste the Slaw and add more dressing if necessary. Garnish with toasted Sesame Seeds, chopped fresh Cilantro or Thai Basil. 
 
Moore Farms City Chicks 
We have some beautiful Chick Mixes this year! 
If you have ever thought about being a City Chicken owner we are ready and willing to enable your aspirations! Our Moore Farms City Chicks program set up a dozen Atlanta families with their very own backyard flock "starter kit" last year. Our first little ones moved to their new Decatur digs this week! We provide everything you need to get started, you just supply the coop (you can build your own or there are LOTS of kits you can find online). Advantages of our program include a Rooster Return guarantee and 24/7 Tech Support. Check out the details here and put in your reservation for your Chicks!

We are very proud to bring our farm harvests to your family's table and we always want to know what you think about what we do. Send us your recipes, pictures and stories and thank you for supporting your local food system!

Moore Farms and Friends Farm to School Program
We often get requests from schools to host our pickups but with most educational calendars it's difficult for us to make it work. As an alternative we have Partnered with these Atlanta area schools: new and renewing Members let us know they were referred by their school and we give back $5 to the PTA, school garden or other designated program. Ask us about adding your school to the referral list! 
~ Clifton Schools 
~ Winnona Park Elementary

Important Reminder!
Recently we had a rash of folks who accidentally picked up other Members' orders. PLEASE be sure you have your box with your name on it (Cooler Items, too) when you leave your Pickup Location. If yours is a site where they give you the box be sure to double-check. Sometimes our fine hosts think that all of our boxes are the same and that they are interchangeable. If you find that you have mistakenly retrieved the wrong order PLEASE call us so we have a heads-up (often the other person has arrived in the meantime!). Remember, we don't get texts on the farm and email only works when we happen to be in the office (these days as little as possible!) so CALL. We keep the phone on us on pickup days so if we miss you just leave a message and we will call back ASAP. Cheers, everyone!
