Cherimoya Shrimp Salad

Although cherimoyas are almost too good to eat any way other than out of hand, this shrimp salad is so refreshing and relatively simple to prepare—a fantastic way to highlight this unique fruit.

McGrath Family Farms Grows Farmers for the Future
https://buff.ly/3qvhiql (via Edible Ojai & Ventura County )
Around five years ago, fifth-generation California farmer Phil McGrath began considering retirement. Unbeknownst to him, this transition at McGrath Family Farm set off a series of events culminating in a new enterprise, which is just beginning to take root. Now “retired,” he’s part of McGrath Family Farmers (MFF), a collective that encompasses multiple small farms and a training ground for nascent farmers to learn agriculture firsthand.
The McGrath family has been farming in Ventura County since 1868. Years ago, Phil McGrath and his siblings decided to lease out most of their 300+ acres off Highway 101 in Camarillo for berry cultivation. The remaining 35 acres are now the lifeblood of several farms that practice organic and regenerative farming techniques. The members of MFF include Baby Root Farm, established in 2015 by Mike Roberts, who has worked with McGrath for 10 years. He’s been instrumental in bringing new micro-farms into the collective alongside more established farmers like those at the Carranza Family Farm, one of the premier organic flower growers in the area.
