Just an FYI to those with fruit shares - THERE IS NO FRUIT THIS WEEK, JULY 8.

Apparently, the farm ran out of fruit!  This is the first time it’s ever happened.  Gerry, one of our farmers, blames it on mother nature - strawberries, cherries, and apples are all gone, and the upcoming fruit isn’t quite ripe.   Sounds like this season has been a bit out of the ordinary.  They will make it up to us next week with extra fruit.

We apologize for this inconvenience.

Thanks to Freeze Peach (yet again!) we are providing free iced tea tomorrow at distribution!  Be sure to stop in when you come to pick up your veggies and fruit, for a free cup of iced tea.   We hope to provide our members with free tea the first Tuesday of each month during the CSA season.

See you at distribution!
