As we approach the shortest day of the year and the end of our CSA season (your final delivery is scheduled for December 21st), our storage crops are holding up well and our greens are still going strong for the final two weeks. This week we have 25 lb boxes of butternut squash, beets, and carrots available in the online store so you want to stock up on some long-term storage crops for the rest of the winter.
