CSA: Week One!

Garlic scape

Calendula
 
The sun came out just in time for our CSA to begin on the summer solstice last week!  We currently have 11 shareholders- 9 full shares and 2 half shares.  Last week the harvest began with greens, turnips & radishes, and potatoes.
This week I had the chance to help with the harvest and what a bounty it was... head lettuce, chard, cilantro, oregano, Asian stir-fry greens, kale, turnips, fava beans, garlic scapes, radishes, peas and calendula.

11 shares bagged and ready to go

Beautiful job, Jay & Natasha!
