What to Expect in Your CSA Box 2023 June 1 – Sept. 28, 2023
This is what’s planned for the 2023 CSA season. As we implement the best in organic practices to mitigate damage from pests, weeds and weather, some crops are more successful than others. We focus on building soil health, protecting from too much sun and heat, and keeping moisture levels appropriate for each variety of crop. Be assured, we work hard to present the best produce we can for you to enjoy. #freshisbest
-
- Spring will see very green shares – full of spring greens, bunching onions, and quick-growing root crops such as radish, turnip and kohlrabi.
-
- Summer shares are filled with cucumbers, tomatoes, sweet corn, beans, peas, peppers, melons and summer squash.
-
- Fall shares are heavy with comfort: beets, sweet potatoes, potatoes, onions, and winter squash.
Herbs are in the plan too. The Wacky Salad and Microgreens are weekly staples. You’ll have the opportunity to try some of our Farm Store products as occasionally we include an item in your share. A few things we don’t grow, i.e. asparagus, we will source from neighboring farms. Pick up is every Thursday at The Greensted. You’ll receive a plastic, fold-down crate to bring each week.
Thank you in advance for partnering with us through the journey of growing food.
