Firstly, 2024 CSA is starting next weekend, March 23-26. Saturday-Tuesday. If you are signed up, you will get an email soon, so check your inboxes and if you don’t see anything from me by Tuesday night, let me know.
There are 3 spaces left, so if spring snuck up on you and you forgot to sign up, the link is down below. ⬇️ (There are still Pantry Builder subscriptions and garden start kits available for preorder too!)
After last week’s frosty/briefly snowy spell, the weather has been truly gorgeous. Plant growth is exploding as fast as the increasing day length.
I truly can’t wait for the cut flower garden to start blooming (perennials will be flowering in May) and for the first sugarsnaps and juicy salad turnips and that gorgeous purple sprouting broccoli. And fresh herbs and lettuces! What are you most excited to eat?
Here we go! It’s going to be a great season!
Here is the link to the new online farm store, where you can register for 2024 CSA, the 8-installment Pantry Builder subscription, and last chance to order plant starts/garden kits.
And the contacts for the share-pools are below.

Hi Shelley, I’m wondering if I am on your CSA list for this year. Hoping I can continue using the “Thank you” credits from the fundraiser for the farm purchase–I think there are a few more seasons left. I tried to sign up through the website last fall and couldn’t get past making a payment–then it slipped my mind to contact you, sorry for the delay in taking care of this. Thank you, Mary Wray

Yes! Come today for week 1 between 2-7. I didn’t get your message in my email so I just saw it. ❤️
Hi Shelley,
I am really looking forward to this season of CSA. I signed up last week (Credit card charged 3/13), and I don’t see that I got an email regarding pickup this week. I also think I may have inadvertently signed up for Saturdays, but I need Tuesdays. Happy spring!! 🙂
Thanks, Mary Richards

You’re on for Tuesday! Today, 2-7
