I once heard someone say that, "Grace is allowing others to be human".....

something to ponder....

CSA Share Week #21, #22 and #23

 

As you can see the harvest has been plentiful.

I've been preoccupied with a group order I am putting together, therefore it has taken me awhile to post pictures.

We have received lots of greens~including mustard greens, swiss chard, spinach, lettuces, broccoli, cilantro, dill, basil, parsley, arugula, Chinese cabbages, green beans...sweet potatoes, peppers galore, tomatoes and a little squash

There are several items I have not listed...

We have a light frost yesterday and we are expecting warmer weather at the beginning of the week, so we should continue to reap a good harvest til the end!

A New CSA in the Neighborhood!

I have been involved with a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) for the about 7 years. I drive about 16-18 miles into town to pick it up, but it is worth it!  CSA's are a great way to support your local farmer's and get fresh, chemical free produce.  (always ask how they grow their food)

CSA~Local Harvest.org 

click on the links to find out about CSA's and look for one in your area.

This summer I was asked by a local farmer to help get a farmer's market in our community, so I jumped on the bandwagon!  Now after introducing fresh local produce to our neighbors our farmer is ready to introduce them to a  CSA.   Our farmer brought a 1/2 share of produce to the market today to show people what they might receive in their weekly box.  It was the end of the day for our farmer's market so I asked to purchase the box.  The cost was $12!!!  This was the regular price for anyone purchasing 1/2 share.  As you can see this is an abundant amount of produce for that price.

Again I want to say that this was only 1/2 of a share!!!

If you live locally and want to participate in a CSA message me and I will be glad to help you get plugged in!
