Watermelons are ready! We are growing 5 different kinds this year. They all taste great, have seeds and will be available at the market and through the CSA. Come see! Some are yellow on the inside, and some are pink. Cantaloupes and honeydews will be ready next week sometime. 

TOMATOES!It is bulk tomato time. We will have boxes of tomatoes at the market starting next week. The CSA will have them in the extra list, for ordering in addition to your box. We do not have roma/sauce tomatoes ready yet, but will have large amounts of our all purpose tomatoes for freezing or canning. 

Flower CSA Reminders: Put your wood crates and glass mason jars out each Tuesday. These two items are not included in the flower csa, they are just vessels for keeping the flowers upright and fresh in delivery. Remove your bouquet and leave the jar. We swap out the jars with clean ones.
