WEATHER ALERTS
UPDATE Sunday - June 28, 2020
It's looking like we have a pretty good chance for rain and thunderstorms most of the week. If it is raining, the check-in and CSA tables will be on the backside of the tent facing the sidewalk. Be sure to have your umbrella on hand in case there there a few other folks in queue.

FIELD NOTES
It finally rained and we got a good soaking one too! The crops are happy and we're beyond relieved. With several more chances over the next few days this should carry us through for a bit and push along our much anticipated sweet corn.

Speaking of rain and thunderstorms, our new 20x30' tent fared pretty darn good even in the heavy wind gusts. It's great to have some shelter for our products where we didn't have it before!

We're excited to have broccoli for the very first time ever and you, our CSA members will be the first to give it a try! Also new to the share is Arrowhead Cabbage, Daikon Radish, Pantheon Squash, Zephyr Squash, and Sweet Crisp Salad Mix. We can't wait to share it with you and hope you enjoy it :)
