The market season is about to begin

hey it’s me, Sara. We have been working really hard to get this season off to the right start. The two Markets that we will be attending most (if not all) of the season start this next week! We plan on bringing some plant starts, and info on warmer weather starts that we’ll have available a little later in the season. (we’re in the process of potting up about 4000 heirloom tomato, pepper, tomatillo, and ground cherry plants). I’m so excited to see all of the vendors and customers!!!

We still have a few CSA shares available and are so blessed to have most of our spaces filled for this season. The beginning of the season was hanging by a thread, and we were totally uplifted by the support of our community, which is so encouraging for us. We love the sense of community, which is one of the main reasons why we started farming in the first place. We never have any intention of ‘going big’ and are really glad that the true CSA model is able to pull through. We made some big changes to our CSA for this season, and were wondering if our customers would accept it, especially with all of the home delivery services available in our area. We felt they were changes that we had to make in order for us to maintain our sanity with the amount of work that is required since it’s just the two of us, but so far so good! we’ve had a lot of return customers and a lot of new ones added to our CSA family for the year.
