My dear Community,
I spent the week romping around the farm with third through sixth graders from Lompoc. Blooming Energy, a wellness center in Lompoc, received grants to visit a few farms in the valley and we were lucky enough to be one of them. It was a first for many of the kids and it was really fun to see their eyes light up as they connected to the food grown locally. Check out our Instagram for a few photos. These visits are one of my passions so it’s great for me as well.
We’re slipping samples of our Organic Seeded Sourdough from San Julian Ranch into as many boxes as possible this week. Baked fresh in the morning, this seeded sourdough is nearly exclusive to our CSA program. We have a few loaves available in our store and it’s also available as part of your subscription to guarantee a loaf with your box. Don’t forget to add some of our exclusive strawberry preserves as well!
We just teamed up with a new local source for mushrooms, Wolfe farms in Solvang who has a consistent supply of delicious shrooms. Shittakes and oyster mushrooms are rolling in. Add them on as part of a subscription or grab yourself a bag in our CSA store.
Be good to each other.
