FIELD NOTES
We are already into Week 3, can you believe it?

The last couple of weeks have been so much fun. It's awesome hearing the ways you all have been using your shares. We are pumped seeing your photos on social media and sharing your excitement of trying new things. Keep them coming! By the way, how are all of your tomato plants doing? Send us your photos!

Thanks to the sun last week we were able to wrap-up cultivating and more field prep. Pumpkins are all-in and we're really excited about the new varieties we'll be presenting in the fall. Everyone should cross their fingers, or maybe say a little prayer, after the autumn we had last year, we don't want a repeat.

Another rainy week ahead with cooler temperatures too. This will slow production again but when that sun and warmth comes back, look out, there will be a growth spurt. We are staying optimistic even with production roughly 3 weeks behind.

Many of you have been waiting for our summer squash and zucchini and we're still a couple of weeks out. Thank you for your patience.

If it's raining Tuesday and Friday, we have you covered. Just enter the door and stone step porch area on the north side of the house (right behind the normal CSA pickup area). We'll have everything set up in there all nice and cozy like.

One more thing! We have added 7 new products that will be updated in our Online Farm Store and available for preorder on pickup days. You'll see Mother's Strawberry and Blueberry Jam, Dill Pickle Spears and Bread & Butter Pickle Chips. We also added 3 new creamy cheese curd flavors sourced locally from Mayval Farm, Garlic, Chive and Buffalo, ohhhh so good!

See you all soon!
