This Week's Denison Farm CSA Share
CSA Produce for This Week (and prior weeks)
Week 18 (Wednesday, September 27)
Dear CSA Members:
“We have the world to live in
on the condition
that we will take good care of it.
And to take good care of it
we have to know it.
And to know it and to be willing
to take care of it,
We have to love it.”
~ Wendell Berry
“It’s time to seed our fall cover crops!! We use a mixture of legumes (nitrogen fixers) and winter grasses (ground cover and biomass producers). These fields will germinate within a few days and soon turn into lush rows of covered ground for the winter and early spring.”
~ Breanne Penkala
I truly love observing the fields after they have been planted ro cover crops – especially in late Fall and early Winter. The rich green blanket covers the fields before the snow falls. The light may fade and the bleakness may creep in, but that lush green is so beautiful and full of hope.
Wishing you the best – Justine
