Dear Farm Members,
Well here we are, in the 25th and final week of the Winter CSA share. What a roller coaster it’s been. We are so incredibly grateful to all of you for supporting us as a farm, and for believing in the food we grow and the people who grow it! This has certainly been a year like no other, and is only the beginning of what has been shaping up to be our biggest season thus far. Whatever challenges we might meet, it’s certainly bound to be an adventure.
Enjoy your boxes this week, and a happy week 25 to us all!

PEONY FLOWER SHARE: (Provided by Little Boy Flowers)
This is the first week of the Peony Flower Share.
Hello flower lovers!! Thanks for signing up for our first peony subscription. I'm so excited that there has been so much interest and support for our little flower farm. About 5 years ago I planted just about 1,000 peony plants and they are now thriving and producing lots of fabulous buds. We have about 10 different varieties that range from early bloomers to late and so we should be able to have a steady stream of flowers for you for the duration of the peony season. I've decided to start the share this coming week so get ready, it's going to be great!
Shares will run for 4 weeks, from May 13/14th - June 2nd/4th.
Please let us know if you have any questions!!
Warmly, Angie
The Spring Flower Share ended last week. You can sign up for Summer Flower Shares here.

1. The delivery list is an integral part of our operation. We ask that you bring your own pen to the drop site and initial for your order. As always, please only take what has been delivered for you.
2. We ask that you only touch the box/bag/bouquet that are a part of your order.
3. We are asking that you pick up your box from the site and take it home with you to prevent the amount of time you are spending at your CSA site. If you’d like to pack it into a reusable bag, please feel free to do that at your car.

If there's a problem, please take what we’ve delivered for you and contact us by email or phone.
If you share your subscription, please make sure you check in every week about who will pick up so one of you does not accidentally take someone else's order.
If you send someone else to pick up for you, please make sure they know the pick up procedure.
