Dear CSA Members,

“Fall has always been my favorite season. The time when everything bursts with its last beauty, as if nature had been saving up all year for the grand finale.” ~ Lauren DeStefano

“Autumn shows us how beautiful it is to let things go.” (Unknown)

30 degrees this morning – an unexpected hard frost hit our farm last night. And so, we are a bit more uncertain as to what we will be harvesting for tomorrow’s CSA box. Please know that the greens and the broccoli may have been impacted by this frost. We will not know the quality and shelf life immediately. Thank you for your understanding!

Wishing you the Best – Justine
