Farm Happenings for July 15, 2020

Posted on July 13th, 2020 by Mike Milsom

Good afternoon everyone,

Welcome to WEEK 2 of our season.  A few quick notes: 

FARM PICK UP People: There is road work being done on River Road.  You are all considered local traffic.  If you are coming from the south, you can come the way you are used to coming. If you are coming from the north, then you just pass the turn off onto River Road and take the NEXT right off of Limebank onto Balmoral Drive to River Road and then left onto River Road. 

We are getting near the end of our crazy time in the fields with just two short weeks left of fall planting.  (phews) Please put August 22nd in your calendars for our Open Field ..stay tuned for details.  

So, with thanks to the fine folk who have come alongside to help facilitate distribution. Gabriel who came and helped with the pick up last week.  Vince and Judy who are doing behind the scenes pouring over mail lists and implementing delivery routes to match.  And certainly not least are our two interns, Ian and Nate who are running ragged with boxes to each of your doors. 

I would say please don't be shy to tell us if anything is amiss...but you have already proven that you're not (lol)  No seriously...you folks have been wonderful and I thank you as well. Together we are building a farm.
