We are thrilled to announce the beginning of our summer CSA program this week! The first day will be this Saturday June 5! (For our Suquamish Wednesday market shoppers, it will be starting June 9th) We are really happy with what we have harvested for market so far, and remember, the variety of summer veggies will continue to increase in the up coming weeks!

More CSA info
The CSA will have priority, meaning, if there is a limited amount of a certain veggie, we will hold it in a cooler, so be sure to tell us you’re a member when you arrive at the booth. We will have your name on file, along with your share contribution amount. Whatever you choose to purchase will be deducted from this number. That way if you choose to shop both markets, or if you need to take a week or two off, we will have this number on file at all times.
As far as add-on items, if you pick up your items once a month, they will be available the first week, if you pick up bi-weekly, you will pick up the 2nd and 4th week of the month, and weekly will be every week (obvi, ) To make this easier, I will post a list in the weekly email letting you know if it is your week.

Community Supported Agriculture, or CSA, brings farm-fresh produce and other grocery items into your home every week. You invest now, and the farm gets to plant in the Spring, and you reap the benefits of the harvest throughout the summer and fall.

Come to our CSA Q&A Saturday, February 7, 2009, 2 pm at the cafe. We will chat with Jared & Sara Hankins of Hand Sown Homegrown about their new Heirloom CSA, what they can do for you and why it is important.

On The Right-Jared and Sara Hankins

Every farm is unique and can offer different experiences and items.

Do you:

• Want to see how a farm works?
• Want to bring your kids to community events on a real, working farm?
• Want the freshest produce available on a weekly basis?
• Want to reduce your carbon footprint?
• Want to have healthier food options at home without having to plan a grocery list?
• Want to learn about Heirloom produce and why it is important?

Jared & Sara will have those answers and more. Whether you are just a little curious, desperate to know more, or already signed up, this is a great time to find out more and enjoy some time with your community.
