What’s In a Spring Box?

What’s In Season?

People often ask what they can expect week-to-week from their CSA shares. The simple answer is- we don’t really know.  While we spend most of the winter compiling spreadsheets and creating planting schedules with painstaking detail, we find that often times mother nature has different plans altogether (the audacity!). We attempt to solve this problem by planting more than necessary, and more often than not, everything works out according to plan.

Here’s a brief list of what we’re planning for the spring:
