Hey CSA Family!
We hope you're doing well! This time of year is all about maintaining and sustaining. Maintaining the health of the summer crops, sustaining the pace of succession plantings, maintaining the encroaching weeds, and sustaining our health and hydration. This week, we planted kale, chard, lettuces, and more! Malabar spinach is coming in strong, and our tomatoes are POPPING. Summer has been good to us ever since the rain came, let's keep our fingers crossed.
Be sure to check out our "extras" this week, which you can add to your cart during the customization period. This week, we are offering organically raised eggs from Maypop Farmstead, and handcrafted and organically grown teas, tinctures, and elixirs from local Nashville herbalist The Healing Oracle Herbal Apothecary. Check them out! These extras make great gifts!
For our Veggie CSA members, here are the organic veggies that you'll find in this week’s CSA box:

A few things to keep in mind:
- Please double check your delivery schedule to be sure you know when and where to pick up your CSA. When you arrive to your CSA pick-up location, please check in with the staff so they can mark you down for the pickup!
- For Veggie CSA members: The veggies in the Summer CSA are not customizable. Each member will receive the same veggies each week. However, you can use the customization period to add "extras" to your order. Try some organically raised eggs or organic teas and tinctures made by a local artisan!
