**Eggs! We are now offering Eggs from our friends' farm through Harvie. Robert Hutchinson of Deer Run Farm of Amelia and Steve Ault of Ault's Family Farm are no longer going to market and therefore need an outlet for their fantastic eggs from their pastured chickens. Both feed supplemental non-gmo grain, as chickens require feed in addition to pasture. We've been to both of their farms and attest to their farming practices as well as the delicious quality of their eggs. We'll be able to continue this if enough people order them with their Farm Share. You'll find them in the "Extras" section. At pick up, look for Eggs in a cooler, separate from vegetables/green boxes.
Hello autumnal weather! Our farm is smack in the middle of summer and fall...some fields still look like the picture above (taken Friday) with lush summer foliage on tall plants. Other fields (and greenhouses) look like the picture below - tiny baby fall plants.
GINGER is also in some of your shares. In this climate, we harvest Ginger at the "baby" stage which means the skin is so thin you don't need to peel before using. It is incredibly tasty and medicinal. It doesn't stay turgid in the fridge for much more than a week but it freezes wonderfully. You can grate just what you need for a dish (or tea) from a frozen piece.
Blessings on your meals, and keep masking up and washing your hands ~
