This week's farm news:

So this week we would like to announce this year's fall season. It will last 8 weeks beginning Saturday, September 29th thru Saturday, November 17th. (We will be skipping a week at market in between the summer and fall seasons - Saturday, September 22 - for our annual family vacation.) Most of the deliveries will take place at the same market, but in November will move indoors to the "Love" building across the street as we've done in the past. Here's what we're growing for the fall share: kale, sweet potatoes, winter squash, arugula, mizuna, hakurei turnips, Chinese cabbage, Swiss chard, collards, kohlrabi, and cauliflower. We will still be planting lots more greens in the next few weeks - spinach, mustard, tatsoi, bok choi, etc. - and we will continue to harvest the summer crops until frost. The cost will be $175/small share; $275/medium share; $375/family share. Again, we will be limiting the amount of shares offered to 50 families. Thank you and we hope you will join us for this year's fall share!!
