Farm Update

Down on the Farm Sorry, I'm a little late with this week's newsletter. It took longer then I anticipated to swim from the garlic field to the house. We are so shocked that our corn supplier already has sweet corn!!  We will have corn in the market beginning tomorrow after 12 noon.  Remember, this is not our corn and it is not grown organically.  It is a non-gmo corn. Our first cooking seminar was great, if we do say so ourselves.  It was well attended and Chef Colleen, The Savory Chef, did a wonderful job. Everyone seemed to have a fun time, especially after a glass or two of wine!  Please consider coming to our next one slated for July 17.  More details to follow. Unfortunately, we are putting our delivery idea on hold, at least for the time being.  This year has been so challenging to grow produce, we really have to make sure our CSA members are taken care of first and that we have stock for our market.  Quite honestly, the extra that we would normally have just isn't happening this year. We appreciate all the bags we have received from our customers.  It's the best type of recycling, to re-use them again.  I do have to say, however, that we have found some interesting things in some of the bags.  Of course a million receipts and other items.  Like yesterday I grabbed a bag and it had some noticeable weight to it.  Before putting the customers items in the bag, I reached in and pulled out a couple of drive thru packets of mayonnaise.  I said to the customer, "Would you care for our complimentary packets of mayonnaise?"  She replied very seriously, "NO, I don't want any mayonnaise!"  Ok... In the market: Sweet Corn Green Beans Salad Mix Kale Zucchini Swiss Chard Collards Organic Non-GMO home ground flour Yellow Squash Cucumbers Onions Kohlrabi Honey Cabbage Zivot Probiotic Drinks Arugula Have a great holiday!!
