Hello CSA members! This week we got more of the greenhouse areas cleaned up and prepared for winter. Harvests continued also and we got some fresh greens in along with the other summer crops. Nights are getting much cooler and the first day of fall arrived today signifying this cooler air and shorter days and…
Hello CSA members! Welcome to week seventeen. This is the second to last big week which means bi-weekly members will have one more share two weeks from now on week #19 or September 29th and October 1st. This week we started pulling some spent tomatoes out of the greenhouses to make room for our hemp…
Greetings members! Week sixteen and labor day week has arrived. Labor day is weird concept to me as a farmer because pretty much every day is a day for labor around here. So much work to complete and most people aren’t able to see the beauty in working hard for others and loose track of…
