Early Blooms and New Beginnings: Spring's Second Chapter


As we embrace the second week of our Spring CSA, the thrill of the season's unfolding is palpable, even as we acknowledge a slightly delayed start due to the cooler winter this year. Typically, we'd be savoring asparagus by now, but nature has its own schedule. We're navigating these early weeks with care and anticipation, safeguarding our tender peonies from the last frost and welcoming new life with the arrival of baby sheep and goats on the farm. Amidst this, we're also in the thick of packing and shipping our Dahlia tubers, fine-tuning our logistics to share these blooms far and wide.


This week's CSA box boasts special treats from our farm like Fresh From the Garden Pickles, handcrafted Ramp Pesto, and Cherokee Purple Canned Tomatoes, alongside other fresh, vibrant produce. We appreciate your patience and support as we navigate this slower start to spring. Rest assured, we're committed to making your CSA experience rich and rewarding, even adding an 11th week at no extra cost if necessary, to ensure you enjoy the full spectrum of spring's bounty.


Keep an eye out below for the full list of this week's contents and some creative recipes to bring these seasonal flavors to life!
