This year we are offering a collection of farm treats from Mariquita Farm and our neighbors at Belle Farms and Fruitilicious Farms. We have created a gift bag which includes Belle Farms olive oil, Apple/Quince Jelly, rose petals and a selection of herbs and herbal infusions.

Mariquita Farm "Herbal Infusion Gift Collection" includes: Lemon Verbena (28g bag), Spearmint (28g bag) and Apple Mint (56g bag) -- each comes with six tea infusion bags. The herbal oils in our herbs are preserved longer by not crushing the herbs prior to packaging. Crushing or bruising the herbs releases the flavor and aroma in the plant oil and should be done right before use. Let our dried herbal infusions provide you with a full flavor of fall!

Enjoy a variety of local, organically grown produce! The contents of this CSA box are hand-selected by our farmers to ensure the freshest items make it to you each week.

Quince is an ancient fruit originating in the Caucasus and northern Persia, and related to apples and pears. It is high in vitamin C and antioxidants, as well as pectin, making it a great fruit for jams, marmalades, tarts and pies. Though it can be eaten raw, it is usually preferred cooked, either roasted in the oven or diced and cooked down with water or apple juice until becomes a puree or compote. $14 per five pound bag.
