CSA Program - Summer
New Addition for CSA Members!
Farm Outreach Programs
Rather than offering you a an "extra head of lettuce or other "thank you's" for being a member in our CSA Program, we are going to offer farm experiences that you as an individual or family can take part in on Saturdays (to be scheduled).
Here are some of the experiences and classes to be offered.
1. Using drip irrigation in your garden.
2. Milking dairy goats.
3. How to prune/trellis tomato plants.
4. Raising back-yard chickens for eggs.
Days and Times of classes to follow.
Like a seed, the 2012 CSA Program information will appear once it has been Planned, Composted, Planted, & Watered.
Ok, our plan for 2012 has finally germinated!
This may come as a surprise to some of you, but after 20 years, we will not offer a CSA Summer Share - we will offer a Spring and Fall CSA Share program. If you sign up for both, you will receive a discount.
Why are we not offering Summer Shares?
My wife (Betsy) will be in school and working on the weekends and that forces us to take care of our family time even more than usual and it is really a priority for us. I and Reed will be spending alot of time just making sure the farm continues to run and growing feed for the animals and growing produce for restaurants and to save for the Fall Share program.
We do not take this step lightly, it has been worrisome for us in regards to all of our csa and farm stand friends we have made over the years.
We do hope you will give our new Spring CSA share program a try along with the ever-more popular Fall Share.
Best,
Ryan and Family
