  • The farmers daughter and I folded the produce boxes in the garage.
  • I got to help the interns plant seeds for Red Romain, Onion, and Pac Choi.
  • Helped Norm check out the Bee's.

Wednesday which was my last full day was very successful. We completed the same tasks as we did every other day.

Stuffed Green Peppers


2 Cups Cooked White Rice
10 Green Peppers(Stem cut off and cleaned out with spoon)
2 Chopped Onions
1 Big Bunch Parsley Chopped
2 Cups of Shredded Cheese for melting
10 Slices of Bacon
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Set your oven to 350 degrees.

  1. Wash off peppers with warm water then cut the steam off the pepper and clean the seeds out with a spoon.
  2. Chop up the onions very fine with the parsley and put the onions and parsley in a mixing bowl.
  3. Once rice is cooked mix the onions and parsley in with it.
  4. Cook 1 strip of bacon for each pepper. Cook bacon until it just starts to brown. Chop bacon.
  5. Once bacon is done mix the bacon into the rice, onion, and parsley.
  6. Fill the pepper with filling(The peppers will get full after one scoop of filling so just push the filling down the pepper with a spoon.)
  7. Sprinkle cheese on the top of the peppers.
  8. Line the peppers up on a baking pan and bake until peppers are a little soft and just getting brown (about 15 - 20 minutes).
