Farm Happenings for April 8, 2020

Posted on April 5th, 2020 by Renee Watley

Hi,

How is everyone hanging in this week?  I received a call to do an interview about how the pandemic is affecting our farm and it was hard to define.  So I sit here trying to process it all.  This week will be our largest yet for farm box orders and deliveries.  For this we feel so incredibly grateful and hopeful.  But it is also difficult to feel joy when the rest of the world is suffering.  

I think we have to focus on finding the light and right now that means we will have the opportunity to bring over 65 farm boxes to you all in the upcoming week.  Each of those boxes not only supports A Simpler Place but your purchases also support ten other local farms and businesses.  We continue to be humbled by your support.  We hope you know how much we sincerely appreciate each and every one.  

Focusing on the light:  In local farm news - we are officially done with strawberry season and have transitioned into blueberries.  Peaches will soon be coming on as well.  As farms transition into their spring and summer crops we will begin working with our organic distributer to supplement our local selection.  As always, we are completely transparent with where your food is coming from.  We feel strongly about educating our customers on what is available locally and seasonally and providing you with the ability to choose your food source.  

Wishing you and your families good health and a wonderful week ahead.

-Renee & the Farmily
