Let us know if you would like to stop by to pick up any of these fall veggies.  We take our  last batch of meatbirds to the butcher next Monday, so we will have a good supply of frozen chicken for the winter.  So, just let us know when you are ready to re-supply your freezer.

We want to thank all of you for being part of our CSA this season!  It was a good year and we enjoyed growing yummy organic veggies, fruit, eggs and chicken for you.  We look forward to next season and hope you will all join us again.  Please let us know how we can improve, any special veggies you would like us to include – any ideas that can help us serve you better.  We want to thank our apprentices, Shoshanna, Chris, and Dave, for all the hard work they put in!!  We can’t do it without them!!  Dave is going to be with us until December and is building a wood-fired bread oven.  Maybe next season we can offer wonderful breads baked in it!!

Many of you know Khimba, who has lived and worked here for five seasons.  She has moved and will be very missed from the farm.  We thank her for all of her help over the years and look forward to her friendship for many more.  We wish her happiness in her new home in Mariaville.

We hope to see you soon!

Thank you,
Charlotte
