Hi there Winter CSA members,
Hope you're all as well as can be with the start of 2023. We've had some time to relax and unwind down here, while we've also been chugging along on plans for the coming season. Its usually right around now that I feel like I can notice a slight lengthening of the days,1 read more »
Farm Happenings for December 30, 2022
Alright folks, let's try this again! Thanks for your patience. We had a very very frozen Saturday before our scheduled 12/18 pick up. Typically we can wait it out to defrost for a 3 hour harvest window but sometimes it doesn't end up thawing out enough to harvest.

Farm Happenings for December 18, 2022
Hi CSA Folks,
Well winter sure did come. We've had a good amount of snow on the ground which has finally started to disappear. Snow is funny thing to farm with--it definitely slows things down but it also insulates the veggies from the coldest cold. Brushing the snow back this week has revealed som1 read more »
Farm Happenings for November 20, 2022
Here we go winter! As you have likely also noticed, the temps have dropped. We're in the lows between 25 to 27 over night out here, but are enjoying some delightful highs in the mid 50s. I personally love this kind of weather. We keep all the veggies going with various forms of covers and mulches.1 read more »

We've made it to the end of the CSA season! Always feels a little bittersweet to me. Happy to be entering a time of slower growth and less doing. But also sad to see the regular flow of food and connection points with you folks disappear for a bit.
I'll have a bigger end of CSA email to come-1 read more »

Hello CSA Members!
Apologies for the late box email. We've had a very busy week trying to button everything up before the rain arrived. And arrived it has. The list this week included finishing gutters, pulling tarps from the field, a final harvest of sweet peppers, shearing sheep, and flipping our1 read more »
Farm Happenings for October 16, 2022
We're down to the last three pick ups! Sort of unbelievable given where we started this season. One of the wettest, coldest springs on record, the slowest I've ever seen vegetables grow, to somehow still having tomatoes mid October. Last year this time we already had a frost, and were farming with1 read more »
Farm Happenings for October 9, 2022
Hi CSA Folks,
Another day in the high 70s? Well OK. Easily the latest we've been able to offer sweet peppers and tomatoes in memory--hope you all can savor the summer that's still coming in. On the farm this week, we have been doing what I hope is the final hand weed of our fall/winter carrots. Car1 read more »
Farm Happenings for October 2, 2022
Well it finally became fall. I say this as we're looking at highs in the lows 80s high 70s for the next few days. Bananas. By far the latest we've ever had to cover crop. The good news is that the veggies are benefitting after that weird cold spring that really slowed everything down. Hard to feel1 read more »
