Hi friends!! Just one week left after this one in the season, even though it still feels like summer. We're awash with beautiful dahlias still and have lots more "freckle" apples to share.

Hi friends!
Cooler weather ahead, so this may be the last week for eggplant, peppers, and tomatoes. Looking ahead to the end of the season we have plenty of red onions and potatoes, as well as kale and some nice tender leeks.

Farm Happenings for September 17, 2021
Hi friends! My apologies that the customization email is coming at you super late this week, we had a cold night up here on the hill and I wanted the chance to walk the farm this morning to make sure things are still looking good for the shares this week.

About the farm
Rainwater Farms is run by Emma Rainwater & Naomi Salama with our daughter Norah. Emma fell in love with farming as community service while in Americorps. Naomi is fascinated with intentional ecology and stewardship of the land. We married at a farmer’s market in 2015, and started Rainwater Farms in 2017.
At Rainwater Farms we make use of sustainable practices, permaculture theory, and elbow grease to intensively manage 1.5 acres of vegetables, fruit trees, and a small flock of laying hens for eggs. We farm with intention and respect for the ecosystems our farm interacts with, both above and below ground.
