Yes, it's that time of year again--the Fresh Start Farmers are beginning to harvest myriad varieties of squashes: butternut, acorn, delicata, spaghetti, carnival...even some decorative pumpkins! Each with its own unique texture and flavor profiles, there's a squash for everyone!
You can look forward this week to another round of delicious, fresh-baked bread from the Crust and Crumb Bakery in Concord! Flavors include maple pecan, basil pesto, and multigrain. We also have a new sweet treat in stock from Echo Farm in Hinsdale, NH. Scroll down to read about this week's featured products.

From all of us at Fresh Start Farms, take good care and be well.
We are a collective brand for immigrant and refugee farmers participating in the New American Sustainable Agriculture Program, a program of the Organization for Refugee and Immigrant Success. We work alongside new American farmers to bring farm fresh ingredients to your table via neighborhood farm stands, farmers markets, our FarmShare, wholesale and through NH Farm to School.
Twenty-three new American farmers make up Fresh Start Farms. Nine farmers are part of the New American Farmers Co-op and grow at Our Farm on Story Hill in Dunbarton, NH. An additional 14 farmers, the Umoja Farmers, grow on land at the St. Paul's School in Concord, NH.
All producers in the Fresh Start Farms collective implement organic practices. While not certified organic, the farmers grow nutrient dense produce without chemicals and in a way that promotes healthy soil, habitat, and environment.
We speak 13 languages, represent 7 countries and grow over 50 different varieties of produce!
