Distribution Tuesday 4 - 6

Friends,

You SHOULD receive a nearly identical email from me via CONSTANT CONTACT. It will be the last one from them. I am sorry that I have had to generate so many different emails during this transition.

Hopefully, I’ve about got it figured out. You need only be concerned if you received the CONSTANT CONTACT email and not this one. I THINK I have you all on board now. Please tell me!

This week in your share: collards, kale, komatsuna, leeks, onions, peppers (banana and jalapeño) and cucumbers. Make sure you try the Suyo Longs and the Poona Kheeras... Yum!

Loving the komatsuna!

Also, after this week I will be offering the organic chickens to the general public. You must reserve your chicken if you want one or more in August when we process them.

Don’t forget we have organic eggs, pastured eggs, and grass fed beef. And lots of herbs and flowers.

Thanks for your patience!

Welcome to Our New Look

We’re moving again! Not literally! In an effort to serve you better, we’ve asked Small Farm Central to partner with us in creating a more streamlined experience. Look for lots of new things: online payment, account management, more access to information about varieties and recipes and lots more!

This Week on the Farm

Farmer Bryan is hard at work with some wonderful volunteers trying to save the strawberries. The unusual amount of rain has caused both gray mold and ? rot to spoil a majority of the harvest. It’s heartbreaking for all us to dump big bins of strawberries on the burn pile. (We’re afraid to compost them for fear of contamination.) This Saturday is our Strawberry Project Field Day. Farmers from all over the state and our mentors from A&M will be here to look at our crop. The plants appear healthy and continue to set bloom. We have high hopes that we’re in a drying trend and we can get at least a small harvest. We estimate the losses so far at 80%.
