The recent heavy rains were deep nourishment for food crops in the ground. It’s just not the same as irrigation and everything grew by leaps and bounds! Sweet peas jumped a foot, and you’ll see them in boxes this week. Easy to eat raw, they might not make it home. But if they do, the mint in your box will contribute to a classic spring saute – as simple or as complex as you want. And if all the sweet peas disappear, you’ve got some mint sprigs to place in a glass of water on your counter for fragrant garnishes or a mint simple syrup for refreshing beverages.
