Spring Shares End

I was just reminded that this is the last week for the Spring Share.  I know that Andy and Lizzie appreciate those of you that received the Spring Shares.  They are hoping that your will return next Spring and maybe tell a few others about the CSA.  I also know that there are still some Fall Shares available.  We are lucky because we chose to receive shares in the spring, summer and fall.  We will still be picking up at our drop off locations.  And we will still receive a bounty of healthy vegetables.  From the amount of rain and then the amount of sun we have been seeing lately, the crops should do very well.

A big thank you to those of you who have been faithfully bringing your boxes back.  Andy and Lizzie appreciate this a lot.  We all consider this as being part of being a good steward.  By reusing the boxes we all are helping to cut back on the use of fossil fuels.  Ans if you have any empty egg cartons they would appreciate those also.  They can come from anywhere just as long as they are in good shape and clean.  Because some of the CSA members have been helping out with this, Andy and Lizzie have not had to buy any cartons.  But they are running low and would appreciate all your extra egg cartons.

Before I forget...there will be whole chickens available the week of the 18th.  They re $2.75 a pound and they weigh an average of 3-5 pounds.

What a variety this week...big red juicy tomatoes, garlic, onions, potatoes, leeks, green beans, zucchini, yellow squash, lettuce, and my new all time favorite spring vegetable...rainbow Swiss chard.

If you would like to take part in the CSA, please email
