Dear CSA and Friends of Shalom Orchard,

I am sorry to have missed the pickup last Wednesday; I was in the MDI Hospital ER having IV antibiotics for yet another infection in my leg! I went back on Thursday for another round, but Friday I went to the Wound Clinic at St. Joe’s and I think we are on the right track now.

I hope you met my grandkids, Kamaria and Caelan. Their Mom, Kendall, is here now until Wednesday, so we are enjoying some time together.

So here goes for this week:

From Harmony Mill Dairy: John Pierce will drop off orders for Wed. pickup. We do this just as a convenience. If you don’t know Harmony Mill Dairy, it is a small dairy in Waltham. The milk is unpasteurized and comes in returnable 1/2 gal. bottles. John Edwards carries this milk as well as other natural food stores. These products do not count as part of your share, they are paid for separately.

Sorry – I had the date in the header wrong on the last email!

Dear CSA and Friends of Shalom Orchard,

I am sorry to get this out a bit late – I just returned from RI for a much needed visit to my children and grandchildren, whom I haven’t seen in 3 months, due to my surgery, etc. I brought two back with me, Kamaria and Caelan, whom some of you have met.

Dear CSA and Friends of Shalom Orchard,

Here it is, the end of July and time for blueberries again!! They are a bit early this year, as is most everything. This is the time to place your bulk orders for frozen blueberries. We will be raking and freezing berries and they will be available for pickup in early September. It is good to get your orders in now as we never know how many berries we will end up with.

For those of you who pick up at COA: I will be making the delivery to the college on WEDNESDAYS at 5:00 PM, rather than Thursdays at 4:00. I will park close to Turrets.

We will be welcoming a new WWOOFER, Steph, tonight. She will be with us for 2 weeks.
