Greetings!
Week 12?! do you believe it?
Summer is flying by. Children are headed back to school, and the daylight is fading. However, the heat will not give up! WOW! On our app (the link is also available on our website at the bottom page menus titled "The Farm Beet"; there you can also find the recipes.
It's now that we could use your continued support as we march forward to the Fall CSA program in a little under 7 week's away.
If you have already signed up for the fall/winter; thank you!
Pick up is at Woodbury Floral Designs-
ON YOUR PICK UP DAY
Mike feels like a broken record....
15 Hollow Rd., Woodbury CT. If you can not make it in time to pick up, please notify us at 203.266.9149 BEFORE 6 PM of your pickup day.
We can NOT supply you a basket if you do not call before 6 pm the day that you are to pickup. That would mean we'd be harvesting your basket and giving to the food bank and then using produce again which was to be sold (like 2 csa shares for one person). This is unfair to the other CSA member's.
Giving back to those in need
ALL baskets not picked up on your pick up day will be donated to the Woodbury Food Bank.
On top of any baskets which we need to breakdown that are not picked up, we also donate many items off of the farm stand. We are firm believers that helping others in our unique way growing food for others is the right thing to do.
What's In Store and going forward too.
We like to thank all our members by offering a 10% discount on anything in the shop! Whether it's more produce, our farm raised meat, sauce, syrup, spices, or flowers and gifts- it's our way of showing you our appreciation for your patronage.
We now have a list available on our app; updated every Monday of what we are
planning on harvesting for that given week for the stand. We have also started carrying a line of micro greens and organic lettuce mixes after many members have asked for lettuce. These are available in the cooler near the dairy and eggs. We'd love your feed back on the new product! It is also a local farm we are working with to bring you them. Because they only last a few days we will only to continues to carry f the demand is high enough. Our goal isn't to make more money with it; but to offer it as another meal planning item to our CSA and Harvest Card members during the off season of our lettuce and greens production (August - September) when it's too hot to grow good quality lettuce out of doors.
