Here we go!

We are very excited to officially launch our 2020 CSA season! All the planning, discussions, hard labor, and learning Harvie finally comes together in a box of fresh and delicious vegetables. We have mostly leafy greens and cold-weather crops in this first installment. Back in March the weather was so warm that we even thought about including summer squash in the first CSA box. Then April turned cold and May followed with late frost, and, unfortunately, that was the end of our first crop of summer squash and cucumbers. The next generation of those crops is coming behind but it will probably mature much later than we would have liked. The good news is that our cold-loving crops are thriving. They are sweet and tasty and we would like to invite you to try some of those that are not particularly popular at the store (i.e. kohlrabi, bok choi, salad turnips).
