Week 20-- Full Season Farmshare-- River Run Farm
Delightful Eaters,
Can you believe it?! It's the final week of the Farmshare! We have had a great season feeding y'all and have so many great memories of planting trees, foggy mornings, dew-dripping crops, blasting summer sun, eagles and killdeer, snakes, smiles, children's and crew birthdays, and1 read more »
Week 19 -- Full Season Farmshare -- River Run Farm
Dear Veggie Lovers,
Now that we're getting used to Daylight Savings Time, we're feeling grateful to be setting up the Box Pack in the pink-orange glow that lights up the Olympic Mountains.
Not saying that I'm all for changing the clock and throwing us all off repeatedly twice a year, but just that1 read more »

Week 16 - Full Season Farmshare -- River Run Farm

We are grateful! The rain is recharging our soils and when the1 read more »

Abundance Collectors,
We are very proud to be bringing such a diversity of crops in from the fields in these early weeks of October. The colors abound!
I was especially stoked, personally, to have fennel again. Roasted fennel is one of my favorite dishes.
Speaking of "colors abound", al1 read more »
Week 14-- River Run Farm-- Full Season Farmshare
Fellow Veggie Fanatics!
We've reached October, friends! I'm stunned to say it but we've been having such nice sunny warm days to finish September that I'd *almost* forgotten summer has ended. Except for the chilly mornings and the increasingly short days, of course!
Root crops continue to roll in f1 read more »
Week 13 -- Full Season Farmshare-- River Run Farm
Hello Farm Family!
We have reached the Autumn Equinox, where the day length is equal between day and night. For us, along the Salish Sea, many hours of dew set on the fields and take a considerable time to evaporate off. It certainly feels like fall now!
Since irrigation has been turne1 read more »
Week 12 -- Full Season Farmshare-- River Run Farm
Hello Farmshare!
Another week into September and the days are really shortening now! Also, the quality of the light is ... delicious this time of year. These past couple sunny afternoons on the farm (as the sea-fog rolls back out to the Strait of Juan de Fuca after sufficient sun burn-off) h1 read more »
