Greetings from the farm. Three things we want to mention today;
First, we are starting a new thing this week called Harvie Farmstand; this means that those of you who are not currently CSA members are able to purchase shares on an availability basis. When we have enough vegetables to offer above and beyond our regular membership, you will be able to purchase a share of our veggies. This works the same as the Harvie CSA shares, where you will be assigned a share based on your preferences, and will then have an opportunity to swap in and out of your box, and even purchase as many of the extras as you want. (Hosting a salsa party this summer? purchase a salsa pack! wanting to make some home made pickles? purchase an extra 5 lbs of Cucumbers). We're excited about the farmstand idea, as it should give the farm an outlet for our surplus, and give you all more opportunities to purchase high quality excellent produce.
Secondly, we have created another option for picking up your CSA share; you can now have your share packed on Friday, as we are prepping for Farmer's Market, and then we'll put it in the walk-in cooler, for you to pickup at your convenience anytime from 5pm on Friday to Sunday evening. This option is free, and we hope it fits for those of you who have a hard time making it to a weekday pickup. This option will be available starting next week, June 21.
Finally, a word about flowers! We are in full flower production mode right now - lots of blooms everyday! I want to take this opportunity to plug our flowers.
1. You can still sign up for a flower share - a mixed bouquet of fresh flowers every week (or every other week - depending on what you choose) ready to be picked up or delivered with your veggies ($12 per week).
2. You can purchase a bouquet through Harvie for the current week ($15).
3. You can come to Farmers Market on Saturday mornings and pick from the many options ($8.50-$20)
4. Special event? We have you covered! Come grab a bucket of flowers to decorate your special party, shower, wedding, whatever it is that you want flowers for! Order through Kimby 859-629-5375. ($60 for 80 flower stems available June, July and August)
We love growing food and flowers for you!!
Thanks for choosing us to be your farmers!
Kimby and the farm crew
