News from the Lexington Cooperative Market
LexTalk Eggplants...you either love them or hate them, but one cannot disagree, they are like no other vegetable (or fruit, really) and have great versatility. Grill them, make eggplant parmesan or buy a Lexi’s Eggplant Hummus Pizza.
Tomatoes are the sure winner of all the fall’s harvest. Here comes that Bacon, Lettuce and Tomato sandwich! Don’t forget canning the harvest to use all winter. The varieties are endless and its been a banner year.
Look inside the newsletter and at the Co-op for delicious recipes using all kinds of fall harvest fruits and vegetables!
Apples are the most popular of autumn’s fruits. Yikes, when we thought there would be no apples this fall, we went into a collective depression...but good news! We have apples and they are juicy and crisp. Thank you apple trees for giving us your finest!

Squash – what would we do without your sweet, versatility! What else can you use to make soup, stew, broil, roast, grill or make pies, cookies and quick breads? It’s every which way during squash days!
