• Not all flowers are edible AND even though one part of a plant might be edible, that doesn’t mean the others are.

• Never experiment with eating unknown plants - first call the Cooperative Extension Office of Atlantic County (609-625-0056).

• Like any food, some people might have sensitivities to edible flowers.

Hi 👋 Shannon & Steve here with a little Farm Share Program update: C.R.O.P.S.’s every-other-Wednesday Farm Share Program pickup at the Food Hub @167 S. Tennessee Ave is growing and we’d love for you to be part of it! 🥕🍅🥬

We have a few openings for shareholders and produce shares are ordered & purchased in advance through the New Roots app, with share pickups from 11am-1pm Wednesdays 7/22, 8/5, 8/19, 9/2, 9/16, and then further into the autumn!

In a share, you can expect about 8 produce items, paired with recipes. It’s also a great way to connect with your neighbors on a pickup day! To learn more, visit our website or email [email protected].
