Rain, Rain go away.... 

4/6/2017

After last year's drought I didn't ever think I would want it to stop raining, but gee wiz we could use some sunlight this week. I am actually so grateful for the rain because it is helping to melt the huge snow banks we still have here, and it is recharging our ground water reserves. 

2017 CSA summer signup is well underway and Tuesday is just about full. We had a great season last year and I am already excited to see what this year holds. 

Here is a picture of an early July share from 2015.  This past year was a great tomato year with lots of learning how to grow more tomatoes by using varieties that have been bred to love the conditions in the High Tunnel. Shares often had 2 or 3 lbs of tomatoes in the individual share and twice that in the family share. It was so much fun seeing all that abundance of juicy fruit get gobbled up by the community. I can feel myself already salivating at the though of the first tomato which is still several months away... Ah well at least I have some frozen ones to get me by until then.  

Keep thinking SPRING! And enjoy your food!
