Below is the email I sent to CSA members to describe our first boxes. A couple corrections/addendums...
1) I lied... we did manage to pick enough green beans for everyone to have a few.
2) While the first of you may have had some beautiful swiss chard as is shown in the picture, many of you found yours wilted pretty quickly. This was a failed experiment in storage, apologize for that! Maybe we'll be able to try it agai...

It's August already and the veggies are piling up. Expect another big box of veggies this week. In addition to what you had last week, we will add in the first of the beets. We also have quite a few tomatoes coming in so get those tomato recipes ready!
The cucumbers are going crazy. If you're interested in pickling sized cucumbers, I can pick a big batch of small cucumbers for you, just let me know. At this point...

On Wednesday 7/18, we were thrilled to put together our vegetables for all CSA members. The best part is getting to know our customers and having the options of offering little extras of our bounty. Last week we were swimming in green beans and I don't see that stopping for awhile. I probably need to dig out the green bean recipes to catch up. I'll attach some pictures from last week.
The same day of th...

One reason we love having this business is we get to meet our customers and share our love of gardening and vegetables with others. Thanks to everyone that came out to celebrate our grand opening and check out the farm. For those unable to make it, we are looking forward to seeing all of you this Wednesday for our first CSA pickup.
The day was a hot one but the kids still managed to run around and enjoy t...

Come join us on Saturday, July 14th 5:00-9:00 PM for our first annual open house and barn party! This is an opportunity for you to see the farm up close and personal and ask the farmers all those questions you've been wondering about like.... what happened to all that horse manure?
This is also an opportunity for us to thank all our garden tending volunteers that have been helping us keep the grass and weeds in che...
