MOUNTAIN BOUNTY FARM NEWS
Week 13/52 of 2022

Dear Farm Members,

Rain in the foothills! What a pleasant surprise to be reminded of the rejuvenating spirit of rain in the spring. As we anticipate the next several months without rain, we are all taking a moment to appreciate the moisture nourishing our land and our souls.

For the past 11 years, we've been fortunate to partner with Sunset Ridge Fine Fruits for our Summer and Winter Fruit Share offerings. They have decided to take a step back from providing the fruit shares this season. We have been so lucky to work with them over the years and deeply appreciate all the hard work and effort they've put into providing our incredible fruit shares for our CSA members. We will really miss working with them!

We are currently exploring replacement options for high quality, regional, organic fruit share offerings. We will keep you updated as we nativate the challenges of providing this share throughout the summer. You can sign up here to get a notification when our new fruit share offering is available.

Enjoy your shares this week,

Grace

RECIPES

Mizuna from Mountain Bounty in all the veggie boxes! For those unfamiliar, Mizuna is a japanese green, similar to arugula but less spicy and more mustardy. When I was first starting to eat mizuna, I would pretty much only eat it on top of a pizza. I now I feel confident enough to mix it in a salad or add it to a stir fry. Hope you enjoy!
