| Arlo and Forest in the Chicken Coop. |
After a good long maternity leave, I’m
getting ready for my sixth season of CSA farming here at Eener’s Farm! Our new
baby boy, Arlo, is five month old already and doing great. Our older son, Forest
is a wonderful big brother.
What’s
in a Share:
Full Shares and Half Shares:
Generally about 40 varieties of
vegetables including:
Standard Garden Classics: Green Beans, Broccoli, Carrots,
Sweet Corn, Cucumbers, Kale, Lettuce, Onions, Peas, Peppers, Potatoes,
Pumpkins, Spinach, Summer Squash, Winter Squash, Tomatoes (big red ones,
cherries, romas and some heirlooms),
The Somewhat Lesser Known/Less
Popular (but still good!): Beets
(red ones and yellow ones), Brussel Sprouts, Cabbage, Radishes, Cauliflower,
Celery, Swiss Chard, Edamame, Eggplant, Hot Peppers, Rutabaga, Turnips
Fruit: Cantaloupe, Watermelon, Rhubarb.
Full shares may or may not receive raspberries on a small scale.
Herbs: Basil, Cilantro, Dill, Fennel,
Garlic and Parsley is what I’m shooting for but others may happen too.
Flowers: Zinnias for sure, others possible.
Monthly Shares:
Each month you’ll get an amount of
produce similar to what a Full Share receives in one week plus one or two
dozen eggs. On the beef side of things you will get two to four pounds of
ground beef each month. Additionally, during the grilling season (May to July)
we’ll run two to four steaks each month. Later in the season we’ll deliver one
or two roasts probably a soup bone and some stew meat (August to October).
