Ready To Ride

Last Sunday, Hunter Farms and Competitive Gear sponsered the first annual Farm2Table Cycle Tour.  50 participants followed a carefully planned route including tours at several local farms.

The tour, starting and finishing at our farm, culminated with a pig roast featuring all locally produced  food and drink.  Pictured above, Josh Grabski from Grabski Family Farm, prepares the roasted pig.

CSA News
  
2015 CSA


The CSA is in full swing with both core, and full season shares being distributed.  While the cool, wet spring was great for some crops, (kale, kale, and more kale!) the weather delayed summer crops are finally showing up in this week's shares.  Members can look forward to Blueberries, New Potatoes, Green Beans, Yellow Squash, Green Bell Peppers and notedly, No Kale!  Kale lovers will not be forgotten however, there will be more kale in future weeks.  

As a reminder, please return your bin each week.
