What's in Season? Summer Guide

What's in Season? Summer Guide

The summer solstice is finally upon us, which means we can warmly begin to welcome in our favorite summer fruits and vegetables. Complete your weekend with a family trip to your local farmer's market and see what your local growers have to offer during this time of abundance.

We’ve put together a list of produce that are currently at the peak of their season. See our notes on simple recipe ideas and perfect pairings to our artisan breads. Keep in mind that some produce have a very short offering before their season ends, so it’s a great opportunity to check what your local growers are harvesting weekly.
