  • CSA Week 9

    Hello CSA Members!

    Can you believe we are already over a third of the way through our CSA season? The wet and cloudy spring and early summer set crops back quite a bit this year compared to last, but we’re on the edge of our seats, as we start to watch big transitions in the fields!

    We’re not there yet, but we’ll soon be in full swing with eggplant, tomatoes, and peppers. Our large share members will sample eggplant this week, and we know that in a blink of an eye, we’ll have an abundance to include in all of your shares.

    We think we’ll have just one more week of fava bean abundance before they start winding down. They’ve been a big part of our early summer shares, so if you love your favas, get them while you can!

    Here is what we hope to bring you during week 9:

    Regular Share
    Herb Choice
    Garlic
    Fava Beans
    Cabbage or Bok Choi
