2013 Season, week 1

May 18, 2013

This week's harvest:
Lettuce
Spinach
Swiss Chard
"Easter Egg" Radishes
Green Garlic
Mint
Lemon Balm

This week's farm news:

Welcome friends - new-comers & old-timers, young & old, and all of you in between - to another season with Bugtussle CSA! This spring has been a little slower than usual, with consistently cooler temperatures. We have not minded too much, really. It helps in keeping the pace of spring somewhat more manageable. The rain has been pretty consistent this spring as well, which has been a blessing... Especially when we feel like we have thoroughly taken advantage of dry spells in the garden!

This season at market, look for the friendly faces of Jesse & Hannah (former interns, new neighbors, dear friends & overall fabulous folks!) at our front market table each week. They will be managing the farmers' market side of Bugtussle (with goodies from their own farmstead as well) while Eric & I give our attention to all of you lovely shareholders. We are anticipating a great season! So glad to have you along!
