Happy October! It’s been all things fall around here as we gear up to begin our 2023 Fall CSA next week on October 9 and we would love for you to join in as a shareholder. Our shareholders are important members of our food and farm family. Their support allows us to invest in infrastructure […]
Anyone else feel that slight chill in the air? Admittedly, the majority of the weather we’ve been having here in our neck of the woods has still been screaming summer but believe it or not, fall is just around the corner. That means back to school, the start of new (or refresh of old) routines, […]
One thing we never get sick of sharing with our food and farm family is our love of CSA. By becoming a member not only do you help invest in our farm’s future and assure we can provide delicious and wholesome organic food for generations to come but you also get first pick of our […]

It’s officially January! The holiday rush is over, decorations have been put away, and we’re all getting back into the swing of things.
