Hi All - Our CSA Member Appreciation event last week as a success! Thank you to everyone who was able to make it out to visit and tour the farm. Now that we know how it's done, we won't be so hesitant to do these events in the future. The farm wasn't perfect, we weren't totally ready, and we didn't1 read more »

The photo above shows us planting out our final bed of salad mix for the season. Time will tell if we planted it soon enough to get a harvest out of it, but we're hoping our timing was spot on this time. With the help of being planted inside a hoop house and also some row cover during cold snaps, h1 read more »

Hi All - This one has got to be the cutest photo from our CSA member appreciation event last Friday. Way to go to the Morgan kids for picking out fantastic pumpkins, we hope they turn out great carved up (if that is indeed your intention!).

The CSA season has gone by in a flash, and here we are at week #16 already. That means that once this week is past, there will only be 2 more pick ups for the regular CSA season (many of you will only have one more if your every other week schedule hasn't been changed). We often have produce beyond1 read more »

Hans found the heart-shaped beet above this week while harvesting, and we couldn't resist getting a little bit punny with it. We're having a CSA member appreciation day on Friday afternoon, 1-5, to celebrate you guys, the Heartbeet of the farm! Seriously though, we did start out 7 years ago with CS1 read more »

Well, we think we've made it through the bulk of melon season! This past week was a bumper crop with over 1,000lbs harvested! But our first block is about done producing, so we're starting the inevitable decline in melon yields. But we will still have melons for a bit, so be sure to get your 1 read more »

It's a very welcome wet day, we're enjoying the new smells of rain on dry soil, rain on thirsty leaves, and even rain on compost! Today has been a mostly inside day, but we're all enjoying the change in the weather -- we even made hot tea for lunch! Perhaps the most fitting happening of the day is1 read more »
