This Week's Denison Farm CSA Share
CSA Produce for This Week (and prior weeks)
Week 2 (Wednesday, June 11)
Dear CSA Members,
Just as Spring unfolds and blossoms into summer, the CSA season begins with delicate greens and tender lettuce leaves, growing in weight and variety throughout the five months of your weekly boxes. Each week we provide you with the bounty of what is in season.
The CSA is a cumulative and full season adventure. Each year, I marvel at what the earth generously provides throughout the growing period – even when the temperatures fluctuate from the upper 30s to the high 80s within a day or two or when rain persists and the creek rises so high that we cannot cross it! I appreciate knowing that vegetables have their special time for maturity – some only one time per season (i.e. Garlic Scapes and Melons) while others, started in the greenhouse are then transplanted weekly into the field (i.e. lettuce and herbs).
When the final box is packed in late October, I hope that you will also take pleasure in the seasonality, the diversity and the gifts that emerge from the well-tended and stewarded earth here at Denison Farm. Please take good care and enjoy your box this week.
Wishing you the Best – Justine
Just a Few Notes:
- Remember to take a photo of the list to bring home with you for when you unpack your weekly share!
- Please take one box from the top of one of the stacks and check your name off on the sign-in clipboard. The boxes (eggs and fruit as well) will all be the same and will not be labeled.
- Egg and fruit shares are only for those that purchased those shares with their order.
- The fruit share will begin later in the season, and those members will get an email with updates at that time.
- Please visit Facebook/Instagram and our website for updates.
- Please have a neighbor or friend pick up your share if you cannot.
- Please be responsible for your payments/installments.
- Please return and flatten the boxes and leave in a neat pile from week to week.
- Sparkling Meadow egg cartons can be returned each week.
- Please add our email address to your contact list and check your spam/junk/promotions email folders for CSA newsletters and updates.
