Farm Happenings for September 30, 2020: Fall CSA Shares Coming Soon

Posted on September 25th, 2020 by Lorien Carsey

Hi all,

We are opening up CSA shares for Fall! Dates will be November 7th through December 19th. We are about 1/4 of our summer production in the fall and winter months, so there are only about 1/4 of the shares available. However, if I have underestimated our production, we will continue to use the Farmstand window, in which people can order week to week if we have extra produce in our inventory. We can't use our regular pickup spot or time because of the possibility of freezing temps. The pickup spot and time will coincide with the Saturday Holiday Market at Lincoln Square Mall from 8-noon. Look for a separate email with all the details and sign up information soon.

Some updates about crops on the farm. Our summer crops are slowing down, but we still have lots of peppers. We are starting to see more fall crops coming in like broccoli and cabbage. Carrots are sizing up but we won't pull them until they get a couple of frosts on them to sweeten them up. We should have butternut squash in two weeks and we are starting to get some of our other potato varieties in as well.

We hope you are enjoying your fresh produce, and if you are having any issues, please email us at bluemoonfarmurbana@gmail.com
