In season this week at Bathgate Farm – 24 May 2013

This week’s produce list is small as we are waiting for new season’s plantings to mature. We have also been busy clearing the summer beds before the swamp becomes flooded.

Potatoes Norland (red skinned, waxy potatoes for boiling and salads), Delaware (all round old favourite); Nicola (yellow fleshed, waxy – similar to Dutch cream); Kipfler; Royal Blue (favourite for creamy yellow mash and perfect chunky chips).

Greens: not many ready for picking this week, but for early shoppers we will have a small supply.

Fruit: last of the chillies and eggplants; Argentine, potimarron and acorn pumpkins.

Preserves from the farm Green Curry Paste, Coriander and Garlic Sauce, Vietnamese Curry Paste, Harrief, Thai style Chilli Jam, Red Onion and Tomato Chutney, Eggplant Kasaundi, Tomato Kasaundi, Spicy Tomato Sauce, Quince Butter and Quince Jelly.
