Dear CSA Members,
As we get ready for the holiday week, please remember that if you are out of town, you can put your CSA on hold. We have plenty for you to choose from for the coming week to plan your holiday meals.
Josh is in the holiday spirit and has dug up red, white, and blue potatoes for this week. As the summer continues, the choices are evolving, but there will always be a bounty to choose from.
