Ten years of Root 5 Farm and looking foward to the future!

Posted on October 26th, 2022 by Danielle *Allen

This is the final week of our Summer/Fall CSA shares AND we're coming to the end of our 10th growing season here at Root 5 Farm!! We've been reflecting a lot on what it means to be farming for over twenty years and to be here on this land in Fairlee for a decade now. We keep coming back to the idea that you, our CSA members, are at the heart of this whole thing, and we want to thank you for that!

Thank you for choosing to be a part of this important local food movement that is so much bigger than just a box of food. Together, we are building healthy soil, keeping our precious water clean, providing habitat for the amazing biodiversity all around us, employing kind people with meaningful work and fair wages, and nourishing our bodies with healthy, real, beautiful food.

For some of you, this will be your final CSA box for the season. We truly hope you've enjoyed this journey of eating with the seasons with us, and we wish you continued health and happiness throughout the winter months.

If you're staying on with us through December, we're scheduled to move into our hoop houses next week to continue harvesting greens and herbs for our Winter Shares. We're so excited about all the good food that is still to come.
