THIS WEEK'S FOOD

Pedaling Petals

Hello friends,

Happy Almost 4th of July and Happy Birthday to Erin's Mom Sally MacDonald who has received the formal ecclesiastical status of sainthood for putting up with Erin all these years.

We know you have kids to slather in sunscreen, hot dogs to eat and cold beer to wash all your stresses away so we will get right to it:

Flower season is back. Last year at this time I may have been more shadowy in spirit because I wrote a long snoozer of an email about Les Fleurs du Mal by Charles Baudelaire. While 19th century poetry about vermin, sadness and disease (like THIS little chestnut!) generally warm my arctic heart - I'll spare us all that guff. It's 2026 and we are brimming with optimism.

SO! Flower shares are back in their abundant beatitude. Add a bunch or a bouquet to your delivery each week and let us brighten up your day.

Oh, and it's time for some MORE SEASONAL GOODIES. We've added organic garlic scapes (farmers are sitting on sooooooo many garlic scapes) and some beautiful soft, summery herbs. Parsley, oregano, mint, cilantro, dill. Planning on doing a pickling bundle next week and soon: TOMATOES.

Also soon: fruit shares (squeeeee!!!!). Get ready to ward off any scurvy the long winter put upon you.

Have a great weekend folks,

Erin, Joe and the Family Dinner Fam

I need to skip this week!

Please email us by Sunday evening if you'd like us to skip the order that is due to process on Monday! This would not be for the items listed above but for the following delivery. It really, REALLY helps us if you skip BEFORE orders process early Monday morning.

I'm traveling this week/month/year!

You can take us with you! Get in touch and we'll put together a custom package of goodies to keep you sated while you're enjoying the Cape or Bar Harbor. If you're expecting to be away for several weeks or months we can put your subscription on hold.

I'm allergic and/or hate this item!

Send us an email with your name and we'll make a note to your account to substitute those items when they're a part of your share.

What do I do with these bags/ice packs?

Please leave them outside for our drivers to collect and return to home base. We'll get them cleaned up and back into rotation.

We want YOU... to email us

If something is amiss in your order, or you need to make a special request, we want to know about it. Email us—we love hearing from you and we're happy to help however we can!

Have a wonderful weekend!
—The Fam Din Team

Recipes

Boy. We're seeing all the produce goodies and even a nice change up in the fish dept. TUNA IS IN SEASON. Expect to see it a bit more frequently while they're available.

On that note:

Perfectly Seared Ahi Tuna Steak - Will be serving atop:

Cone Head Cabbage Slaw - Would also be perfect on tacos.

Fennel and Tomato Panzanella with Homemade Ricotta - Boy does this scream weekend afternoon lunch. We've got you covered with the tomatoes, fennel and, for those getting double shares, the whole wheat round from Forge is the perfect bread for this. (Ricotta is fun and easy to make but is a project. Just get the good stuff.)

Sugarcone Cabbage Wedge with Dill Yogurt - I mean. Doubling down on cabbage?! I'm a wild man. But hey, we've got perfect, early summer dill. And yogurt. And this is delicious. I am who I am.
