Bee-zy on the Farm!

–

Hello friends,

–

Things are moving right along on the farm as April has brought much anticipation of what’s to come and motivation to get it all done!  It has been an incredible Spring so far and we feel blessed to be farmers in the Pacific Northwest.  We are about a MONTH ahead of schedule compared to last season and feel really good about the days ahead.  March – June is always a crazy time on the farm – lots of seeding & transplanting of summer and fall crops, prepping of beds, weeding, building CSA crates, taking care of beez-ness, not to mention the beginnings of harvesting the farm’s bounty!  We are so excited to offer over 60 different types of vegetables and several different varieties of each (that’ll keep two farmers plenty busy).

Our new beehives have been installed and the strawberries are packed with flowers.  Our brassica crops are in the ground and thriving and our summer crops are getting big and strong in the greenhouse.  We’re just a week away from our area’s “last frost date” so we will be extra busy in the coming weeks getting the rest of our garden planted.

Special Egg Sale.  As a treat for our members, we are having a buy one, get one free egg sale until May 1st for our CSA members.  Our eggs (gmo free, no soy, no corn) are $7.50 per dozen and for those of you who have purchased an egg share for the 20 week season we will honor the discounted egg share price of $6.50 per dozen.  Please send us an email to place an order and we will send you a message with availability.  Thanks so much in advance for your support in our CSA off-season!  Your support gives us the opportunity to offer a product we believe in and we couldn’t be more grateful.

We have included many pictures in this month’s newsletter so be sure to check out all the things happening on the farm.  We’re almost a month away from the start of the CSA and look forward to seeing you all in the coming weeks!  Time to get bee-zy on the farm!
