CROP UPDATES.  Due to weather issues, we have bought in a few crops to supplement the CSA share - beets, carrots, onions, broccoli.  In 8 seasons, this is a first!  We have sourced from local farms - thanks to Zone 7. Customers on the previous Saturday got these crops.  Thank you for your understanding.

PICK YOUR OWN - herbs - rosemary, oregano, chives, thyme, lavender, sage.  No flowers or green beans; they did not make it.  

CSA LAST PICKUP?! (Oct 10-13 pickups, OR Oct 17-20 pickups).  We are nearing the end of the season.  Next week could be it , depending on weather and crops.  If so, we will load up our CSA members with extra veggies; it will be a larger than normal share.  Weather has challenged us beyond what is normal. Nevertheless, we look forward to another growing season (but a little rest first!). 

RENEWALS AND NEW MEMBERSHIPS? Signup details soon.  We thank you for your amazing support this season!  Your feedback is much appreciated - please let us know how we can improve your CSA experience - we can take it!  Our farm is a work in progress. Farming is hard work, yet it is work that is rewarding and meaningful. We aim to be good stewards of the land and the community. As we continue to grow and expand, a necessity to purchase the farm, our CSA customers will remain the backbone of this operation.  Thank you for being a part of our farm experience.

FARM DINNER? Yes! Together with Hammerbacher, and others, plans are in the works.  Details soon:)

See you on the farm.
