Heads UP! CSA August 21st

Summer has seems to have flown by. I can’t believe we are already heading into late August. Sweet peppers are on the horizon along with a late planting of bi-color super sweet corn. We’ve had some problems with our corn crop that has been slowing down production. I hope to have it in the box in the next few weeks. The CSA just got a $200 grant to a seed catalogue (from a local farmer who is willing to grow for us) and we are going to branch out with some new varieties. I’m looking through the Johnny Seed Catalogue, but let me know in the next week if you see something you’d like to have in your CSA/JUICE box. We are planting mainly for fall and winter, but I’ll keep Spring/Summer seeds in mind for later.
