Hey CSA Family!
There are tons of exciting things happening on the farm! Believe it or not, we've started seeds for many of our Summer crops, like tomatoes and peppers! We can already taste and smell the bounty of Summer. We cannot wait for y'all to enjoy these amazing fruits in just a few months. We've also started sprouting potato starts!
On the livestock front, we've brought the sows up from the pastures and into their pens in preparation for farrowing (pig births)! Our sows will spend the next few weeks in the cozy, warm, well-protected barn. Baby piglet pics to come!
Again, we are thrilled to continue our new partnership with Sequatchie Cove Farm, who is offering delicious, healthy eggs from pasture-raised and organically-fed hens. Our friends at Sequatchie Cove use many of the same regenerative, sustainable farming practices that we use here at Caney Fork Farms. Their eggs are deeply nourishing, and we are sure that they will be a great addition to your breakfasts, baked goods, sandwiches, and more. They will be available every week of the year! Add a carton to your CSA as an "extra" or "add-on"!
For our Veggie CSA members, here are the organic veggies that you'll find in this week’s CSA box:
Kale or Spinach
Tetsukabuto Squash
Hakurei Turnips
Cornmeal
Daikon Radish
French Breakfast Radishes
Radish Microgreens
Purple Top Turnips
Scallions
For our Grass-fed Meat CSA members, you will again have access to select cuts of our 100% grass-fed beef, 100% grass-fed lamb, and pasture-raised pork.
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 Winter 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 eggs made by a local artisan!
Let us know what you're cooking on our Caney Fork Farms CSA Facebook group and be sure to follow us on Instagram and Facebook to keep up with farm happenings!
"Extras" are not produced by Caney Fork Farms, and therefore, may not be recognized as meeting our certifications and standards.
