CSA Week 1 Staying The Course

May 19, 2018

Despite the very challenging weather this year, we have managed to stay the course and will be starting up the CSA right on time. Tuesday May 22 and Friday the 25th will be the first pick ups. Whichever day you signed up for will be the day we ask you to come. If...

Underway!

Apr 1, 2018

Well, we are underway! The first pick-up day is a little less than 2 months away. We had a small window of opportunity last week to begin preparing the ground. The peas, onions, spinach, carrots, scallions, lettuce mix, broccoli raab and turnips were all planted...

Winter Warm Up

Feb 12, 2018

Well, the seeds are ordered and some have already arrived. The green house will soon be coming to life with our first plantings. The days are getting longer. Spring is a'comin' and I can't wait. Sign-ups for this year are coming in well ahead...

Sign up for 2018

Dec 21, 2017

Although Winter has just started, we are energetically planning out our 2018 crops and hoping you are thinking about Spring, the warmth of Summer and all the delicious vegetables that will be coming. With this image in mind, there is no better time than the present to...

Sunset On A Season

Oct 23, 2017

The final share of the season is this week. Of course, it is one of those moments you ponder how time just flies right by. Although, I think eating fresh vegetables directly from the farm helps to keep yourself very connected to time and more so the seasons. We are...

Down The Stretch

Oct 16, 2017

With two more weeks to go, the CSA shares are still quite a bounty. The main field has now been mowed and and turned over. Hopefully we will get a cover crop of hairy vetch and clover planted in it this week which will feed the soil nitrogen for next year's crops! ...

Battling The Heat

Oct 9, 2017

The Fall heat wave started to really do some damage to our best laid plans for these final few weeks of the CSA. Some of our lettuce has bolted and gone bitter, one variety of arugula is now in flower, and we have two plantings of broccoli that are now heading up at...

Feeling Like Fall

Oct 2, 2017

Like a lot of people, Fall is my favorite of the 4 seasons. The cool weather, the colors, and the tastes are a tough combination to beat. The main part of this week’s share is 100% Fall. Their might be a few holdovers of summer on the choice table yet though! Our...

The Great Tomato Renaissance

Sep 25, 2017

I am not really sure that everyone is completely overjoyed to still be receiving tomatoes in their CSA share, but this crazy heat wave has brought new life back to the tomato patch. The theme of our CSA pick up a couple weeks back was about enjoying the last of this...

Hello Again

Sep 18, 2017

Summertime temperatures and humidity are back again this week, which is actually the last week of the official summer season. It's not necessarily a welcome return visit as far as I am concerned! We do have a few items in the CSA share making a return visit that I...

Changing Fast

Sep 11, 2017

The season's seem to be changing fast now. The summer crops are really slowing down. Tomatoes, eggplant, okra, squash, beans, etc they are all just fading away. That's ok though, to everything there is a season! This week's share is full on Fall... Purple...

Two For One

Sep 4, 2017

We are at the time of year where we get to enjoy some tastes of Summer and some tastes of Fall all in the same CSA share. Spaghetti Squash - this is the last week we have enough for everyone, but it will move to the choice table afterwards if you are a big fan...
