virtual farm stand

alright, folks! the eggplants are growing, the four kinds of tomatoes are ripening, the hot peppers are getting spicy, the beets are ready to be pulled, and the carrots are ready to be gingered. . .



veggie prices and descriptions:

japanese eggplant: smaller and more slender than your typical eggplant this beauty has a sweeter, more delicate flavor. the skin is much thinner than its italian counterpart. really versatile. 2 for $1.50

scarlet prince beet: bright color and buttery texture make these beauties great for roasting. but they are even great shredded raw in summer salads. $3/bunch

jalapenos & garden salsa peppers: these are great for cooking, drying, salads, and snacking. some of the most versatile peppers on the market. $3/pint

beefsteak tomatoes: this is the "summer tomato lovers" tomato. big, juicy, and big. great for those blt's. $1/ea.

mr. stripy tomato: yellow striped tomato that i have fallen in love with. such a beautiful fruit to make salad with. they get very big and taste great. $1/ea.

cherokee purple: omg! these are so damn pretty. they have a unique dusty rose color that will break your heart. pair that with mr. stripy and some fresh basil. whoa, mama. wonderful sweet flavor. $1/ea.

roma tomato: this is the one you need to stock up on and make your marinara with. or can with.* a homegrown roma is so fantastic in flavor. 2 for $1

danvers carrots: this is the basic homegrown carrot, people. except that there is nothing basic about a fresh carrot. they are like candy and addictive. $3/bunch




email us at clementinespandp@gmail.com to purchase any of these. the veggies will be ready to be picked up or delivered by the beginning of next week. we are in midtown/downtown omaha on sundays, mondays, & wednesdays. we do deliveries in west omaha all days of the week.
