Week 7 CSA Pick Up

Another week is upon us and it is hard to believe that September is just around the corner. With that, I want to say a huge thank-you to my harvest superstar, Erin Venard, who will be returning next week to Worcester Polytechnic Institute for her junior year. Erin has met me in the fields for early starts every Monday morning this summer and I will miss her can-do attitude and company on harvest days - plus, my farm pup, Brandon, adores Erin! We will miss you and best of luck at school this year.

We had another great pop up farm stand at the Highlands last Thursday - we were so happy to bring the residents some leftover veggies and also share some lavender bunches and sachet packets. We’ll be back again next Thursday due to popular demand - it’s great to be supported by our communities and to make new connections.

This week will bring more beans, peas, cucumbers, and squash. We’ll also have lettuce mix, kale, red onions, and beets. Looking for something to do with the beets? Check out this great recipe from the Food Network for a cold beet and cucumber soup. Please share any of your own food creations using our produce on Facebook or @snowfieldsfarm on Instagram.

Reminder: Pick up days this week are Monday, 8/24 and Wednesday, 8/26 from 4-6:30pm.

See you soon!
