ZUCCHINI:

CalFresh Healthy Living Program promotes seasonal and locally grown fruits and vegetables through Farm to Preschool Harvest of the Month program. 

For September Harvest of the Month, we celebrated zucchini. This time of year every gardener seems to have more zucchini then they can deal with, it’s good to share abundance! It’s even better to have a long list of things to do with this delicious veg when you have it.
