Cream of the Crop CSA Our CSA produce comes from a conglomerate of amazing small, family farms in NY and PA.

Our produce comes from Hepworth Farms, a seventh generation family-owned farm in Milton, NY on the banks of the Hudson River. The farm is lovingly run and operated by Amy Hepworth, Gail Hepworth and Gerry Greco. Hepworth's vegetables and berries are Certified Organic and they practice Integrative Pest Management (meaning they only take pest-management steps when needed) when farming the rest of their fruit.

From Cream of the Crop CSA member 🧑‍🍳 Kurt F.

This is a great way to use the peak season items in our CSA boxes. The super sweet tomatoes, shish*to peppers, jalapeños and onion make for a great summer soup. I added a cup of watermelon for just a touch of extra sweetness. This is a great recipe to experiment with what you have around the kitchen.

1 1/2 pounds ripe tomatoes

1 large cucumber, peeled

1 cup watermelon cubes

1 small white or red onion

1 large garlic clove

4-5 shish*to peppers, seeded and deveined

1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and deveined

1 tbsp. red w**e vinegar

salt

1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil

1. Roughly cut all of the vegetables into similar sized chunks.

2. Place all of the cut vegetables into a blender. Blend at high speed for a couple of minutes until completely smooth. Scrape down the bowl half way through if necessary. Do this in batches if your vegetables won’t all fit in your blender.

3. Turn the blender down to low speed and add a large pinch of salt and the vinegar and allow to blend for a moment. Then slowly stream the olive oil into the blender. The soup will become slightly glossy and will thicken like salad dressing.

4. Strain the soup to remove any remaining solids.

5. Transfer the strained soup to a pitcher and refrigerate for 4 hours or until cold.

6. Check and adjust the seasonings before serving.

7. Serve in bowls or glasses and garnish with a few drops of olive oil and a few chopped tomatoes, peppers or cucumber.

This is the perfect summer soup to use peak season produce. Add extra or different peppers if you prefer a spicier soup or use more watermelon if you like it sweeter.
