📰 Lifestyle
Cucumbers have a long history from being first grown in India to arriving with Columbus in 1494 and later inspiring dishes like those with crème fraiche in Paris bistros.
Locally, fresh cucumbers are available at the Oxford Farmers Market each Saturday (from 7 Wonders Farm Stand) and are not affected by the recent salmonella outbreak in Florida.
Robert Thurston, a longtime coffee enthusiast and roaster, shared his global experiences with coffee production — from labor-intensive organic farms to highly mechanized operations — while discussing challenges like climate change and efforts to support small farmers.
He also noted differences in bean quality and referenced studies showing potential health benefits of coffee.
