If you joined our RPFarm CSA Members 2018 Facebook group you've probably seen some of the photos from our Sticker Challenge offered by one of our kindhearted CSA members! It was a lot of fun to see all the creativity and we're excited to announce The Winner and what they've won in the video above (also DISCOVER how to zoodle!). Congratulations!! 


Riehm's CSA Weekly Veggie Bag

I was talking to one of our members in BG when she suggested less packaging. We get it!!! That's why we use re-usable canvas bags and want you to return them each week!

We have also found that over the years members who did not put their produce in airtight containers once they returned home did not renew, because the "fresh" produce could not be eaten fast enough before the veggie greens went bad. By bagging all your greens and veggies that dehydrate quickly your shelf life is drastically increased. ***Remember to return you CANVAS BAG and LINERS "each" week!*** It helps keep your cost down and save the environment.


Events

Annually, we host our well acclaimed Farm-to-Fork Dinner with hors d'oeurves, several courses and bonus "field" trips to see the future crops we'll be harvesting. Keep the date open!
