My dear community, I wanted to remind everyone that we are now selling Baba Hummus in our CSA store. Dip those veggies right into that delicious hummus as soon as you open your box. Now that’s my kind of fast food. I’ve spent this past week appreciating my new bank, one that scrutinizes all loans …

Week of September 30th
My dear community, If you’ve been a member for a while you know we’ve sporadically partnered with outside brands besides Deux Bakery. When Babba Hummus recently approached me I didn’t really have to think twice. The thought of me opening my CSA box after a long day and immediately dipping some veggies in their amazing …

My dear community, I couldn’t let this week go without a heartfelt note about Notorious RBG. The world lost a force. Despite so many odds, she rose above and fought for it all, doing so much for gender equality and women’s rights, and known of course for her passionate dissents while serving as the second …
Week of September 16th
My dear community, You may have noticed some squishy/rotten strawberries in your box last week. We did our best to weed them out but the heat accelerated ripening after picking so much that it would have been impossible to find them all. I’m still seeing damage to our berries, tomatoes and red peppers from that …
Week of September 9th
My dear community, To say it’s been hot is an understatement. Tomatoes are turning into mush on the vine, which the tops of the plants are burning up and cucumbers are cooking in the greenhouses. Luckily we planned ahead and were able to harvest plenty of heirlooms for this week. The thought that this may …
Week of Sept 2nd
My dear community, A few weeks ago our ice machine at the farm broke which came with the lesson that broccoli does not like the heat. Within a matter of hours mine turned from bright green to yellow. We should have better luck with the broccoli this week as our ice machine is back up …
Week of August 26th
My dear community A few things regarding our pickup locations: *Adams Elementary- we’re back and delivering outside again. We are hoping with the increased number of people around campus it will minimize theft. So far so good. *Cold Springs Elementary- the school staff is asking for carrot tops and scraps for the school bunny. A …
Week of August 19th
My dear community: We are back on for pick-up at Adams Elementary School. If you switched from here last week and wish to resume at Adam’s Elementary, please shoot me a quick email today. It can be as simple as putting “Switch back to Adams Elementary” in the subject line. Please let me know ASAP …
Week of August 12th
My dear community members, Our CSA box is kind of like a healthy alternative trick or treat bag this week, loaded with all the best sweets. We are picking our melons tomorrow but won’t know which we’ll put in the boxes until Wednesday morning once we sort them out. I hope you get a chance …
Week of August 5th
My dear community, A few quick notes for this week: *If you received a CSA box last week with an orange kabocha squash it needs about 2 more weeks to cure (NOT in the refrigerator). These squash were picked a little prematurely without my knowledge, but will surely ripen in a matter of weeks. *We …
