ROAD CONSTRUCTION ALERT
Road crews will be paving in front of the farmstand tomorrow and both sides of Main Street and may not allow for parking. When picking up your share please pull into the driveway, but stay to one side or the other, to allow egress in and out of the residence. We apologize for the inconvenience and will update you if this changes, stay tuned to social media.

What a difference a month makes, we were 30 days away from the autumn harvest.
FIELD NOTES
Happy first day of fall everyone! It started off to be a warm one, but it looks like seasonal temperatures return for the rest of the week. It's been a stellar September if you think about it, we just need a little but of rain to push the last of our fall settings along. Can't complain though.
We apologize in advance, but please bear with us when coming to pick up your share. We REALLY hope road construction is completed soon. It's really taken a toll on everything, but we should be in tip-top shape by the beginning of next week.
On a happy note, lots in your share this week. We're excited to be harvesting Millennial Spinach, Red Satin Radishes, Triple Sweet Corn, Honeynut and Acorn Squash, the settings look absolutely amazing when we checked in on them today.
Be sure to see the CSA Pumpkin Carving Contest Rules below! We really hope many of you participate, it's gonna be fun. The winner receives a Bardwell Farm gift tote loaded with autumn goodies!
Lastly, please join us for Pumpkin Days this coming weekend, we have so much in store! Three words... A P P L E C I D E R D O N U T S
See you soon!

CSA 2020 CALL LIST
We're just a few short weeks away from the farm share coming to an end. It's been an amazing summer with you all. We learned a lot, shared the risk and reward, swapped recipes, laughed and enjoyed your company week after week. Many of you have asked us what's next and if we would be offering a CSA in 2020.
The answer is YES.
Earlier in the year we started a call list for the folks who missed the opportunity this year. There has been great interest for next year and it looks like we will be expanding the program. We want to give our founding members the opportunity to be on the top of that list. Thank you for believing in us.
If you are interested in the 2020 CSA Farm Share please have Rick or Navi add you to the call list. Or, contact us at (413) 800-5583 or message bardwellfarm@gmail.com to be added.
