No matter how you pronounce it, the word ‘tomato’ practically sings of summer, the vine-ripened beauties now at their best as the first heirlooms begin to arrive. This week’s box pays homage to the ripe, juicy tomato with mixed heirlooms, nutty farro, imported feta cheese and Greek and green olives to toss together in salads, plus, a bevy of complementary produce including mini white cucumbers, sweet red peppers and bicolor corn. Uncork a bottle of Italian red, turn on some tunes and get cookin’ with these beautiful and bright summer favorites.

Here are a few recipes ideas for the week:
