Due to a few earlier than expected frosts this year, and a large increase in demand for healthy food at our local food shelf partners, we've found ourselves running short of fall crops. In order to continue fulfilling your CSA shares, we recently partnered with Foxtail Farm, another local, certified organic farm located in Osceola, Wisconsin. In your final October 7th and 14th CSA shares, you'll find organic carrots that they've grown on their nearby farm.
Foxtail Farm is situated on the banks of the St. Croix river. Owners Emmalyn Kayser and Cody Fitzpatrick, whose farming careers started in Alaska, are ecstatic to continue farming closer to home. MOSA certified organic veggies are grown in their fields and are free of pesticides and chemicals. They strive to create, maintain and manage a whole-farm ecosystem that includes native plants, pollinators, and amphibians galore. A special shout out to farmers Emmalyn and Cody for helping us out!
