The spinach harvest has been amazing!
FIELD NOTES
It's almost October, winter is coming, winter is coming!
All kidding aside, there's only 2 more weeks of the farm share left and 41 days before the farmstand officially closes for the season. Every year it kind of feels bittersweet. On one hand we get a little rest and begin planning for next year and on the other, we won't see the folks we've shared this amazing season with. One thing is for sure, we thoroughly enjoyed building this program with you. Your feedback has been super important because it will shape our plans for next year.
And, speaking of that... we want to be sure the founding members of this year's CSA have a first choice of a share for next year before we open enrollment to the public. If you are planning on joining us again and you haven't already, please talk with Rick or Navi and they will add you to the call list for 2020. You can also email bardwellfarm@gmail.com or call (413) 800-5583 to be added.
Enjoy the share this week, the French Breakfast Radishes are a favorite!

COOKING TIP
How to clean Leeks for Beginners
Food Network
Leeks are a delicious vegetable, but they're grown in sandy soil, so they need a good cleaning before you use them in recipes.
