CSA Newsletter Week 37/52

MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS
Week 37/52 of 2021 

Dear Farm Members,

The tiny bit of rain we got last Thursday night was a welcome reprieve from dry days, and a sign of what’s to come in the not so distant future. The farm, misty and cool on Friday morning, almost sighed with relief. The rainy season is approaching! We’ve all noticed the lengthening shadows, shorter days, and cooler nights that fall brings with it, and, like clockwork, we’ve begun harvesting winter squash and pumpkins to store into the colder months. This time of year is marked by such abundance - when our summer crops are still coming in from the field as fall veggies make their debut. We hope you enjoy your boxes this week and all of the bounty they hold!
