Weekly Share - Week Three

We hope you are enjoying your weekly shares. This week is going to be another great week for fresh vegetables. Your share this week includes red leaf lettuce, micro greens lettuce and slow bolt lettuce (do I hear you getting your salad bowl out of the cupboard?). You will also be dining on swiss chard, radishes, peas, beets (lots of beets!), spinach, chives, and lemon balm. We have fresh cut flowers this week too!

We look forward to seeing what delicious meals you create with your share!

Weekly Share - Week Two

Welcome to Week Two!

It was such a pleasure to meet our shareholders this past week during the first week of pickups! Parents - your children are welcome at the farm and to be in the field with you.

Here's what we're having for this week - it's similar to last week: Lettuce, peas, spinach, swiss chard, beet thinnings, parsley, oregano, chives, basil, lemon balm...

The beans are coming along - thought they might be ready soon, but nope. Drat. Some of the bean plants were taken out by a rototiller(!) a few weeks back and so more were replanted. The plants are looking healthy. Hope the deer don't think they look good, too! I'm sure there's lots of us looking forward to snacking on beans!

Reminders:

Wednesday pick-up shareholders: The Avon Farm Market starts this Wednesday so come on down to the Tops Plaza anytime from 3pm-6pm to pick up your share.

Monday pick-up shareholders: Next Monday is a holiday for many people and many probably have vacation plans. So...let me know if you will still be picking up next Monday, or if Wednesday at the Avon Farm Market or Thursday at the farm works better for you. If you're unable to pick up your share, you are welcome to have a family member or friend come in your place, too!

Feedback: Please know that I value your feedback and input. Did you like a particular variety of a vegetable or herb? Did it store well? How was the taste?, etc. Together we can enjoy this adventure :)

Happy Day and see you all this week :)
