Farm Happenings for April 6, 2020

Posted on April 3rd, 2020 by Annie Moore

Hi everyone,

We hope you're all healthy and safe and enjoying the bounty from our farm. We are continuously amazed and humbled by the outpouring of support and assistance from people in our community and the community at large. Last week we delivered 187 shares, a number that we never imagined in our wildest dreams we'd be doing this season. And we did it because so many folks have been willing to lend us a hand. If you're interested in learning more about how we scaled up in the last few weeks, you can check out Farmer Cheryl's quote in a sustainable farming newsletter, Growing For Market.

This week, we have a lot of beautiful greens and an assortment of other exciting veggies that we hope you'll enjoy. We also continue expanding our selections from other local food producers and growers. Extras include:

  • Eggs from Local Cooling Farm
  • Oyster Mushrooms from Mycelium Express
  • Onigirazu (Avocado and egg or Roasted Carrot) from The Lost Line
  • Jamboree Jams

We are also including various organic salad greens and radicchio(!) from Compostella Farm again.

Thank you again and stay well!

Annie and Cheryl

PS - Some of you have seen our Rutabaga Ginsburg T-shirts and wondered about purchasing them through the Farm Share. We have an Etsy shop with lots of vegetable celebrity pun merchandise. You can place an order on Etsy and make a note that you're in our Farm Share. We'll refund the shipping and include your order in your veggie box.

PPS - We're still accepting returned white takeout style microgreens containers, so keep 'em coming!
