Week #19: Next Season Sign Up Opens October 25th!

Posted on October 10th, 2018 by Robyn Calvey

Hard to believe that there are only 2 weeks of the standard season left.  It feels like just yesterday that we were shoveling out from the mid-April snow storm!  Like all good things, the season must come to an end.  

That means it is time to talk about next season.  In your week 19 share, you will receive important information about signing up for the 2019 season.  I know, already?  Yes. Already.  We are offering an "early bird" price for members who sign up before December 16th.  We had considered using the Harvie "auto-renewal" option, but after MUCH thought decided against it.  With new pickup options and some add-on changes, we wanted to make sure you could modify your share if needed without the glitches that might come with auto-renewal.  Maybe in the future we will consider this slick feature.  But for now, it is good old fashion online sign up.  

Seasonal farming is a year round business.  We will start planning for next years crops in November of this year and put together our (very large!) seed order in mid December.  Greenhouse supplies and potting soil will be ordered (a ton of it...literally!).  And over the winter months we will be spending lots of time catching up on the latest growing trends, attending educational courses and of course getting some rest.  

We appreciate your continued support and hope that you will join us for the years to come.  This season was our 10th share season.  10th!  I can't wait to see what the next 10 seasons will bring :) 

Stay warm out there!

Your Farmer in Chief
